Hydro Jetting

Hydro Jetting Services

Hydro jetting is a method of cleaning out pipes using high-pressure water. Think of it as a power wash for your pipes. Hydro jetting pumps water at high pressure into the pipe to break up and flush out any blockages or buildup. Hydro jetting is also used prior to having your pipes lined.

 

Hydro jetting should only be performed by a licensed and experienced plumber, like the team at The Plumbing Department. If not used correctly, the high pressure of the water can actually cause damage to your pipes.

Why Do We Need Hydro Jetting?

While there are other effective ways to remove buildup and clogs in a pipe, such as rooters and snaking, hydro jetting is often used on more challenging clogs and blockages.

  • Hydro jetting is less invasive than traditional methods like snaking or rooters, which can cause damage to the pipes.
  • Hydro jetting can reach deep into the pipes and thoroughly clean the entire system, which can help prevent future clogs and buildup.
  • Hydro jetting does not use harsh chemicals that can be harmful to the pipes or the environment.

Hydro jetting will return your pipes to like-new condition. The powerful stream removes traces of food waste, grease, soap buildup, and even clogs from things that shouldn’t have been flushed in the first place!
