How Does Hydro Jetting Work?

The hydro jetting process involves inserting a specialized nozzle into the plumbing system. This nozzle is connected to a high-pressure water pump that releases water at pressures up to 4,000 PSI. The force of the water effectively breaks down and flushes away any obstructions, leaving the pipes clean and clear.

Hydro Jetting Benefits

  • Thorough Cleaning: Hydro jetting cleans the entire pipe, not just the area around the clog.
  • Environmentally Friendly: Uses only water, avoiding harsh chemicals.
  • Prevents Future Clogs: Removes build-up that could lead to future blockages.
  • Versatile: Effective for both residential and commercial plumbing systems.

Hydro Jetting vs Snaking

While both hydro jetting and snaking are used to clear clogs, they differ significantly in their approach and effectiveness. Snaking involves using a metal cable to break up blockages, which can be effective for minor clogs. However, hydro jetting offers a more comprehensive solution by thoroughly cleaning the pipes and removing all debris, not just the immediate blockage.

Is Hydro Jetting Safe for Pipes?

Yes, hydro jetting is safe for most types of pipes, including PVC, copper, and cast iron. The high-pressure water is powerful enough to clear clogs without damaging the pipes. However, it is essential to have a professional assessment to ensure that the pipes are in good condition and can withstand the pressure.

Hydro Jetting Cost

The cost of hydro jetting can vary based on several factors, including the severity of the clog, the length of the pipes, and the complexity of the plumbing system. On average, hydro jetting services can range from $300 to $600. While this may be more expensive than snaking, the long-term benefits and prevention of future clogs often justify the investment.

Hydro Jetting for Clogged Drains

Hydro jetting is particularly effective for clearing clogged drains, whether caused by grease, hair, soap scum, or other debris. It is an ideal solution for persistent clogs that have not responded to other methods, ensuring that your plumbing system is restored to optimal functionality.

Hydro Jetting Frequency

The frequency of hydro jetting depends on the usage and condition of your plumbing system. For residential properties, an annual hydro jetting service is often sufficient to maintain clear pipes and prevent clogs. However, homes with older plumbing systems or frequent blockages may benefit from more frequent services.

Our FAQs

  • To prevent clogs, avoid putting the following down your kitchen sink:

    • Grease, oil, or fat (FOG).
    • Coffee grounds.
    • Eggshells or food scraps.
    • Fibrous vegetables (like celery or corn husks).
    • Pasta, rice, or other starchy foods.
    • Regularly clean drains using a natural drain cleaner like baking soda and vinegar.
    • Install drain screens or traps to catch hair and debris.
    • Avoid flushing non-biodegradable items down the toilet.
    • Be mindful of what you pour down the kitchen sink (e.g., no grease or oils).
    • Have professional inspections performed periodically.

  • A cleanout is a pipe fitting that provides easy access for drain cleaning. If your plumbing system doesn't already have one, Zoom Drain can install a cleanout, which can save you time and money when clearing future blockages.

  • Sewer lining is a trenchless method of repairing damaged pipes by inserting a liner into the existing pipe. The liner hardens into a new pipe, sealing any cracks or leaks. It’s less invasive and often more cost-effective than traditional sewer replacement.

  • Signs that your sewer line may need repair or replacement include:

    • Persistent slow drains or backups.
    • Unpleasant odors coming from your drains.
    • Wet spots or patches of lush greenery in your yard (indicating leaks).
    • Gurgling sounds in your toilet or sinks. Zoom Drain provides comprehensive sewer repair, lining, and replacement services.

  • A malfunctioning sewage pump may show signs like:

    • Sewage backup or slow draining.
    • Foul odors or gurgling noises.
    • Inconsistent or no pump operation. Regular inspections and maintenance can prevent costly failures.

  • Signs of sump pump issues include:

    • Water pooling around the sump pump area.
    • Strange noises when the pump operates.
    • Pump not turning on or off properly.
    • Water not being pumped out effectively. Zoom Drain can inspect and provide repair or replacement services.

  • Jetting from the roof vent involves sending high-pressure water through your drain lines starting from the roof vent, which clears out blockages from the top of the pipes. This technique can reach clogs that are deep within the system, particularly for stubborn, hard-to-reach blockages.

  • Hydrojetting is a technique where high-pressure water is used to clean drains. It’s especially effective for removing grease, debris, and tree roots. This method is ideal for tougher clogs that can't be easily cleared with standard tools.

  • Zoom Drain uses advanced tools like:

    • Hydrojetting machines for powerful, high-pressure water cleaning.
    • Sewer cameras to inspect and locate blockages deep within your pipes.
    • Locators to precisely find and identify issues underground or behind walls.
    • Traditional augers for mechanical drain clearing when necessary.
