While minor clogs can be fixed with standard drain cleaning, stubborn obstructions deep within the plumbing need professional equipment. Contact Fras-Air/General Service Experts to schedule hydro jetting in Hillsborough.
Hydro jetting is a specialized plumbing service for clearing severely clogged drains or plumbing. By utilizing a highly pressurized stream of water to blast away stubborn grease, tree roots and other debris, you can safeguard every part of your home’s plumbing. Professional hydro-jetting service is reliable and eco-friendly, with no harsh chemicals.
The key piece of equipment used for hydro jetting is the aptly named hydro-jet machine, which creates the intense water pressure needed for a deep clean. A thick hose with a nozzle designed for a consistent spray of the water is inserted into the plumbing. With multiple holes for the streams of water, the nozzle blasts it in all directions, guaranteeing that the entire interior surface of the pipe is cleaned.
But before a professional plumber begins cleaning, hydro jetting must first begin with an inspection of the entire plumbing system, using a small camera. This way, we can locate the exact spot of the clog and take a look at the overall condition of the pipes. Once problem areas are found, we’ll gradually snake the hose into the piping, removing the blockage and cleaning the pipe walls. This limits future clogs while keeping everything working well.
Hydro jetting is a great option for routine care or to resolve large, stubborn clogs that traditional techniques can’t handle. With a regular schedule of hydro-jetting service, you can even prolong the life span your plumbing!
When standard drain cleaning doesn’t work, or when clogs are deeply stuck in the plumbing, hydro-jetting could be the best option.
The total cost of a hydro-jet drain cleaning depends on the difficulty of the clog and the total length of the plumbing system as a whole. For complicated tasks—such as strong clogs in pipes that are difficult to reach—it’s advised to get a quote from professional plumbers like Fras-Air/General Service Experts.
Hydro jetting uses intense water pressure to flush out and remove clogs from pipes. A machine generates the water pressure, which is directed through a hose with a uniquely-designed nozzle. The nozzle sprays water in all directions, removing clogs and debris to keep the interior lining of the pipes clean.
Yes, hydro jetting is effective at clearing tree roots from pipes. The powerful stream can slice through and clear even mature roots, clearing the blockage and cleaning out any debris around them.
Hydro jetting is considered a safe, efficient option for most pipes, but there is always the possibility of damage, particularly if the pipes are very old or worn down. Professionals will inspect the pipes before hydro jetting to verify they’re in suitable condition.
