3 Reasons Hydro Jetting Is Great for Drain and Sewer Cleaning

April 03, 2015

Clogged drainpipes and sewer lines are a frequent problem for residential plumbing. You have almost certainly dealt with them before--and probably don't ever want to deal with them again. Although we can't offer you a solution that will forever do away with drain clogs, our team at Bronco Plumbing Heating and Air can provide you with a drain and sewer cleaning method that can reduce these problems to a minimum: hydro-jetting. 

Hydro-jetting is a drain cleaning method that uses water placed under high pressure (7800 psi or more) to scour the inside of sewer lines and drainpipes. Here are three reasons that you should consider hydro jetting in Sacramento, CA for your next drain or sewer cleaning:

1. It is Extremely Effective

There are few drain and sewer cleaning methods that do a more thorough job than hydro-jetting. The powerful blasting from the high-pressure water will not only smash through the most obdurate of all clogs, but it provides a complete scouring of the pipelines that removed everything from fat and grease build-up to heavy mineral deposits from hard water. The water also blasts out in multiple directions, covering the widest area possible inside the drainpipe. You won't get this level of cleaning from a drain auger or store-bought chemicals. 

2. It Helps Prevent Future Plumbing Problems

Cleaning methods like drain snakes can work very well at breaking apart clogs, but they won't remove every bit of debris clinging to the sides of the pipes. Whatever remains will start to catch other debris, and soon lead to clogging issues once more. But hydro-jetting so thoroughly scours away the contaminants inside drainpipes and sewer lines that clogs have a hard time starting again. Regular hydro-jetting services mean far fewer plumbing troubles in the future. 

3. It is Safe for You and Your Pipes

...or, it is as long as you have a professional handle it. Unlike caustic chemical cleaning processes, hydro-jetting will not damage the pipes with corrosive action, nor will it leave behind any toxic fumes or chemicals. Just make sure that you aren't the one holding the hydro-jetter! The job requires special training and protective gear.
