Hydrojetting is a highly effective method used to clean and clear clogged drains and sewer lines.

How Does Hydrojetting Work?

The hydrojetting process involves inserting a specialized hose with a nozzle into the plumbing system. This nozzle emits a powerful stream of water, typically at pressures ranging from 3,000 to 8,000 PSI, which can cut through stubborn clogs and clean the pipe walls. The force of the water dislodges debris and flushes it out of the system, leaving pipes clear and free-flowing. This technique is particularly effective in removing persistent obstructions such as grease buildup, small tree roots, and limescale, which conventional methods may not address fully.

Hydrojetting is not only effective for emergency clogs but also serves as a preventive measure to maintain the overall health of your plumbing system. Regularly scheduled hydrojetting services can keep your pipes in optimal condition, reducing the risks of future emergency blockages and extending the lifespan of your plumbing infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hydrojetting

What Are the Advantages of Hydrojetting Over Traditional Methods?

Hydrojetting offers several advantages over traditional snake or auger methods. Primarily, it provides a more thorough cleaning by using a high-pressure water stream to clear and clean pipe interiors. This ensures all debris is removed, which snaking alone often cannot achieve. Furthermore, hydrojetting prevents future blockages by removing residues and buildup that could lead to clogs.

How Often Should Hydrojetting Be Performed?

The frequency of hydrojetting varies depending on use and pipe conditions. For typical residential homes in Montgomery County, annual maintenance is recommended to prevent major clogs and maintain plumbing health. Commercial properties or older homes may require more frequent services, particularly if experiencing regular blockages or tree root invasions.

Can Hydrojetting Handle Tree Roots?

Yes, hydrojetting can effectively remove small tree roots entering sewer lines. The high-pressure water cuts and washes away these invasive roots. However, severe root growth might require additional methods, such as mechanical removal or periodic hydrojetting, to maintain clear pipes.

Will Hydrojetting Increase My Water Bill?

While hydrojetting uses high-pressure water, it is a short-duration process, meaning it doesn't significantly impact water bills. The efficiency and power of the process allow quick clog resolution, making it cost-effective compared to ongoing plumbing problems that might require multiple service calls or repairs.

Is Hydrojetting Suitable for All Properties?

Hydrojetting is appropriate for most residential and commercial properties, especially those experiencing recurring drainage issues. However, properties with very old or damaged piping systems should undergo preliminary assessments to ensure pipe safety. Our team can conduct these checks to verify if your system will benefit from hydrojetting.

Considering the diverse infrastructure across Montgomery County, from modern commercial buildings to historical homes, hydrojetting offers versatile and efficient pipe cleaning services that meet varied community needs without compromising system integrity.

    “My toilet was clogged, then I noticed my tub was filling up so I tried plunging my toilet and dirty water came up through my tub. I plunged my tub and dirty water came up through my bathroom sink. I called a plumber who was referred to me from a friend. He snaked the toilet, took the toilet off and couldn’t fix it. The plumber referred a drain guy. He came out and snaked the toilet, took the toilet off, and snaked from the main at the sidewalk. He couldn’t clear the drain so he recommended calling Zoom. I called Zoom at noon and they said someone would be out between 12:30-4 pm. At 1 pm Zoom showed up. Pat used the water jet at the sidewalk and the camera and after about two hours he was able to get through the clog. He was very helpful with explaining what he was doing and what the next step would be if necessary. Thank you Zoom Drain & Pat! I would definitely use them again and will refer them to friends & family.”
