Is Hydro Jetting Safe for Pipes?

Most people have dealt with a clog or two in their life, but sometimes, there are just some clogs that are too big to handle on your own. It may not even be your fault. While clogs caused by food are grease are fairly common, it’s just as likely that tree roots seeking your nutrient-rich water have intruded on your pipes, causing blockages that are extremely tough to break loose. It’s clogs like these that are often treated with hydro jetting.

What Is Hydro Jetting?

Like the name suggests, hydro jetting is a process in which an extremely powerful water stream containing sand particles is sent into your pipes from different angles with such force that it essentially bulldozes down any clogs or blockages in its path. Meanwhile, the sand scrapes away at any sludge or debris clinging to the walls of your pipes. Despite how this sounds though, it’s really gentle on your pipes. In fact, by dispersing the water pressure evening across the pipe’s entire diameter, it’s able to safely and effectively clean your pipes out faster than virtually any other method – like a good exfoliating pressure washing for your pipes!

The Many Wonderful Benefits of Hydro Jetting

Breaking through impossible clogs made of detergents, soap, grease, dirt, minerals, silt, and all kinds of other debris isn’t the only thing hydro jetting can do for you though.

• Hydro jetting can offer your pipes a much more consistent cleaning, by spitting out water and sand granules in all directions for ideal cleansing and exfoliation in every nook and cranny.
• Hydro jetting is for when you want a more complete clean with no residuals left behind. It penetrates clogs deeper than any snake or other device can even reach, making it one of the most powerful drain clog solutions for clearing out tree roots, rocks, minerals, and more stuck way down deep.
• Hydro jetting can blast away anything, from the thickest of grease clogs, to the smallest bacteria leeched onto the inside of your pipes that could be causing terrible odors throughout your property.
• Beyond being just safe, hydro jetting can be one of the most economically efficient drain cleaning methods available, potentially prolonging your need for future cleanings by as much as four times that of using a snake.
