What is Hydro Jetting?

You may have heard of the term ‘hydro jetting’ when it comes to plumbing or drain cleaning service; but how many people know exactly what it is? Hydro jetting is the high-powered stream of water that blasts through your pipes to unblock any clogs or build-ups that may be in the way of free-flowing water. Water is a very powerful tool in plumbing. Just as awful as it can be when water becomes a problem or emergency in your home, it can also save the day! A hydro-jetter is a machine that shoots out water with high pressures of up to 4,000 psi! If you are having problems with your sewer or pipes in Chicago, this may be the better fix. Many people jump to the conclusion that their sewer needs to be repaired or replaced when it just needs a good hydro jet drain cleaning. It is also easier on the wallet than having to repair a sewer line. We offer both residential and commercial hydro jetting services in Chicago.

How Does Hydro Jetting Work?

Almost every single home that is made has something called a clean out. This is a bigger opening located somewhere around your home to help plumbers get to your pipes more easily to better rid them of any clogs or debris that may be stopping your free flowing water. A hydro-jetter has a large tank of water connected to a hose and when the nozzle is turned on it is placed in the clean out and shoots out water with pressures up to 4,000 psi at 18 gpm. The water in your home naturally flows in a downstream current. Highly pressurized water is shot out to defy gravity and go against that current to knock loose any clogs or debris in your plumbing system. When the water breaks up the clog it will then travel back downstream and right out into the sewer.

Hydro jetting is an excellent option for residential and commercial drain cleaning because it uses only clean water to flush out your drains with speed and efficiency. The entire hydro jetting process involves our hydro-jetting experts inserting a long hose with a special jetting nozzle into your drain or sewer line. Once this special nozzle and hose are securely inserted into the pipe,  a high-pressure water stream will be released into the line. As the jetting hose moves through your pipes, it clears out all debris and buildup in its path. This high water pressure is controlled by our technician and is strong enough to clear tree root infestation and any calcium deposits that may have built up over time. When the hydro-jetting service is completed, your Chicago pipes will have been restored to their proper function.

Can I Just Have My Pipes Rodded Out?

Sometimes a typical sewer line rodding can unclear any clogs, debris, or roots that are blocking your pipes from free flowing water. However, a hydro jetter would come in to play when you need more than a solid snake. A rodder is a very efficient tool but sometimes isn’t enough to entirely clear out an awful blockage in your system. A hydro jetter blasts through the entire perimeter of your sewer pipes for a very powerful cleaning. A simple sewer camera inspection done by your Suburban Plumbing Experts plumber can determine what tool your pipes need to address your plumbing needs.

High-pressure water jetting is a very effective way to clean drains. Hydro-jetting is highly powerful and can eliminate most all blockages in your drain. Whether you need the drains in your home or business cleaned, rely on the residential or commercial hydro-jetting service offered by Suburban Plumbing Experts to help get you back on track.
