How Hydro Jetting Works

Hydro jetting uses a hose with a special nozzle that sprays water at very high pressure. We feed the hose into the line from a cleanout. The water scours the inside of the pipe and pushes grease, sludge, roots and debris down the line and out. The pipe is left clean from wall to wall, not just poked through in the middle.

A plumbing snake or auger can punch a hole through a clog. That gets water moving for a while, but the buildup on the pipe walls stays behind. Jetting cleans the whole pipe, so the line flows better and stays clear longer.

When Hydro Jetting Makes Sense

• A main line that keeps clogging after it has been snaked

• Grease buildup in kitchen lines

• Sludge or scale built up inside older pipes

• Roots that have started to grow into a line

• Slow drains all through the house

• Lines between the house and the septic tank that are backing up

• Restaurant and business lines that see heavy grease

Jetting and Septic Systems

In homes on septic, the line from the house to the tank can fill with grease and soap scum over time. Jetting clears it so waste can flow to the tank the way it should. We can also jet some drain field lines to clear buildup, depending on the type of system and the shape the lines are in.

Before we jet, we often run a camera down the line. That shows us what is causing the clog and if the pipe is strong enough to jet. If a pipe is cracked, crushed or broken, jetting will not fix it. In that case we will talk to you about repair instead.

Is Hydro Jetting Safe for My Pipes?

For pipes in good shape, yes. We pick the right nozzle and pressure for the type and size of pipe. Very old or damaged pipes need a gentler plan, and that is why we look first. We will never jet a line we think it could hurt.

Keep Your Lines Clear After Jetting

• Do not pour grease, oil or fat down the drain

• Use drain screens in sinks and tubs

• Keep wipes and paper towels out of the toilet

• Run hot water after using the kitchen sink

• Pump your septic tank every three to five years if you are on septic

Hydro Jetting Questions

How long does jetting take? Most home lines can be cleaned in one visit. Longer or badly clogged lines can take more time.

Will jetting make a mess in my house? No. We work from a cleanout, often outside, and the water and debris go down the line.

How often should lines be jetted? Most homes only need it when there is a problem. Businesses with heavy grease may need it on a schedule.

Jetting for Homes on Septic

If your home is on septic, the line from the house to the tank carries everything you send down the drain. Grease from the kitchen and soap from the laundry can coat that line over time. When it narrows, waste moves slowly and can back up into the house. Jetting clears that line so the tank gets what it should.

We often pair jetting with a septic tank pump out. Pumping removes the solids from the tank, and jetting clears the line feeding it. Together they give your system a fresh start.

Jetting for Businesses

Restaurants, shops and other businesses with heavy kitchen use can build up grease fast. A clogged line can shut down a kitchen or a restroom at the worst time. Jetting on a regular schedule can help keep lines clear and avoid surprise backups. Call us to talk about what makes sense for your business.
