Here’s How Hydro-Jetting Works:

  • High-Pressure Water Jets: Hydro-jetting equipment utilizes specialized nozzles attached to flexible hoses that deliver a powerful stream of water at extremely high pressure. The pressure typically ranges from 1,500 to 4,000 pounds per square inch (psi), but it can vary depending on the severity of the clog.
  • Thorough Cleaning: The high-pressure water jets effectively scour the interior walls of the pipes, dislodging and breaking apart any buildup, blockages, or residues causing the obstruction. The force of the water is capable of penetrating even the most challenging deposits, including grease, mineral scale, tree roots, and solid waste.
  • Debris Removal: As the water jets dislodge the debris, it is flushed out of the pipes and drains, carrying away the loosened material and restoring proper flow and drainage.
  • Versatility: Hydro-jetting can be used to clean a wide range of plumbing systems, including sewer lines, storm drains, grease traps, septic lines, and industrial pipes. It is effective for both residential and commercial applications.
