Hydro Jetting in San Diego

The Most Effective Way to Clean Your Pipes

Do you find that you constantly need to clean out your pipes, either with a store-bought snake or a professional drain cleaning service? If so, your pipes may be in need of a more thorough cleaning by means of a hydro jet. Hydro jetting is a process that deeply cleans your piping system, removing blockages and built-up residue that has accumulated over time. With professional hydro jetting service from Paws Plumbing, your plumbing system can be better protected from future clogs.

What are the Benefits of Hydro Jetting?

Hydro jetting, also known as water jetting or high-pressure water jetting, is a method of cleaning and unclogging pipes and sewer lines using a high-pressure stream of water. 

This technique offers several benefits:

  • Effective Cleaning: Hydro jetting is highly effective in removing various types of blockages, including grease, sludge, roots, and mineral deposits. The high-pressure water stream can break up and flush out stubborn debris that may be resistant to other methods.
  • Environmentally Friendly: Hydro jetting does not involve the use of harsh chemicals, making it an environmentally friendly option for cleaning pipes. It relies on the force of water to clear blockages, reducing the need for chemical agents.
  • Versatility: Hydro jetting can be used for a wide range of pipe sizes and materials, including residential, commercial, and industrial pipes. It is versatile and can handle different types of obstructions, making it suitable for various applications.
  • Preventive Maintenance: Regular hydro jetting can be used as a preventive maintenance measure to keep pipes and sewer lines clear of debris and build-up. This can help prevent clogs and reduce the likelihood of more serious plumbing issues in the future.
  • Cost-Effective: While hydro jetting may have an upfront cost, it can be cost-effective in the long run. The thorough cleaning provided by hydro jetting can help prevent the need for frequent and expensive plumbing repairs.
  • Efficient and Time-Saving: Hydro jetting is a quick and efficient method of clearing pipes. The high-pressure water stream can rapidly break down and flush away blockages, saving time compared to traditional methods.
  • Long-lasting Results: Unlike some other methods that may provide only temporary relief, hydro jetting offers long-lasting results. The thorough cleaning can help maintain the flow of water through the pipes for an extended period.
  • Safe for Pipes: Hydro jetting is generally safe for pipes, as it relies on the force of water rather than abrasive tools or chemicals. It can help remove build-up without causing damage to the interior of the pipes.

It's important to note that while hydro jetting is a powerful and effective method, it should be performed by trained professionals to ensure safety and proper use. Additionally, it may not be suitable for all types of plumbing systems, so it's advisable to consult with a plumbing professional to determine the most appropriate solution for your specific situation.

How Does Hydro Jetting Work?

The hydro jetting process begins by inserting a hose into a pipe. The hose sends a high-pressure stream of water from a stationary tank into your pipes. Hydro jetting is able to deliver pressurized water with a PSI of up to 5,000, utilizing up to 20 gallons of water per minute. By using high amounts of pressure, our San Diego plumbers are able to safely and effectively dislodge any blockages in your plumbing system.

How Often Should Hydro Jetting Be Performed?

The frequency of hydro jetting depends on several factors, including the age of your plumbing system, the amount of use, and the type of material being flushed through your drains. Here are some general guidelines:

  • Residential Homes: For a typical household, hydrojetting should be done every 1-2 years. If your home has older plumbing or you experience frequent clogs, it might be necessary to perform hydro jetting more frequently.
  • Restaurants and Commercial Kitchens: These establishments often require hydro jetting every 3-6 months due to the high volume of grease and food particles that go down the drains.
  • Businesses and Industrial Facilities: Depending on the type of business and the amount of waste produced, hydro jetting may be needed every 6 months to a year.
  • Preventive Maintenance: To proactively prevent clogs and maintain a clean plumbing system, scheduling hydro jetting once a year is a good practice.

It's always best to consult with a professional plumber who can assess your specific situation and recommend an appropriate schedule based on the condition of your pipes and your usage patterns.
