Hydro jetting is a professional plumbing method that uses high-pressure water to clear clogs and debris from your pipes. With water pressure ranging from 4,000 to 35,000 PSI, jetting can tackle grease, hair, food particles, mineral deposits, and even tree roots. This process not only removes clogs but also thoroughly cleans the walls of your pipes, preventing future blockages.
There are several signs that hydro jetting might be necessary:
- Recurring clogs: When using plungers and drain snakes isn’t cutting it, jetting can address deeper issues.
- Slow drains: If water lingers in your sink or tub, it may signal a buildup in your pipes.
- Unpleasant odors: If you smell foul odors from your drains, it often indicates trapped organic material.
- Noisy pipes: Noise, such as gurgling or bubbling sounds, can suggest air trapped behind a blockage.
A professional plumber can confirm whether jetting is the right choice through a video inspection of your sewer line.
