Hydro Jetting 101: What You Need to Know

There are many approaches to drain cleaning in Granada Hills, CA , with hydro jetting reigning supreme. Unlike other methods, hydro jetting offers long-term benefits for your home and wallet. It ensures smooth-flowing pipes all year round, protecting you from tough clogs and nasty backups. Read on as All City Plumbers Plumbing & Rooter shares everything you need to know about hydro jetting:

How Hydro Jetting Works

Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to clean gunked-up drains. The water pressure is usually set up to 4,000 PSI. During the process, a powerful jet of water cuts through obstructions in the pipes and scours the interior surface clean. It removes stubborn clogs, such as scale, grease, and tree roots, that simple methods like drain snaking can’t.

A hydro jet comes with different nozzles to reach hard-to-access parts of your pipeline. We also adjust the water pressure based on the severity of the clogged drain and the condition of your pipes, ensuring we don’t inflict damage. It’s safe for all types of pipes as long as they are stable enough to withstand the force of high water pressure.

When Do You Need Hydro Jetting

Hydro jetting has several applications. Apart from clearing clogs, we perform this procedure as part of preventive maintenance and preparation for pipe repairs. However, the following red flags also imply the need for drain cleaning services:

  • Foul-smelling drains
  • Gurgling sounds from the drains
  • Water backing up into your sink or tub
  • Water taking longer than usual to drain
  • Recurring clogs and backups

Benefits of Hydro Jetting

Hydro jetting is 100% safe for your pipes and the environment because it doesn’t use harsh chemicals. Furthermore, it is non-invasive, which means it doesn’t involve digging your yard to access the pipes. Instead, our drain cleaning company only needs to use the cleanout. Hydro jetting also helps avoid clogs and drainage issues in the future. You can have peace of mind knowing that your drain and sewer lines remain in tip-top shape for years to come.
