If you’re dealing with frequent clogs or slow drains, it might be time to consider professional drain cleaning. At Central, we use high-pressure water jetting, one of the most effective tools available for cleaning and maintaining residential sewer and drain lines.
What is Water Jetting?
Water jetting, also known as hydro jetting, involves using advanced pumps and highly flexible hoses to deliver water at extremely high pressure into your sewer or drain lines. The key to its effectiveness lies in a specialized nozzle that directs powerful water jets both forward and backward. This creates a “scrubbing” action inside the pipe that not only clears clogs but also removes buildup and residue.
Why Choose Water Jetting Over Traditional Drain Snaking?
You may be familiar with cable machines, commonly called drain snakes, as a tool for removing clogs. While drain snakes can be effective at breaking up tough obstructions, such as hair or food waste, they often fall short when it comes to removing grease, sludge, and other sticky substances. Snakes punch through these materials but don’t entirely remove them, leaving your pipes prone to future blockages.
Water jetting, on the other hand, goes beyond simply breaking up debris—it completely flushes your plumbing system. Here’s why water jetting outperforms other methods:
Clears hardened scale
Over time, minerals and debris can harden on the walls of your pipes, reducing water flow and causing slow drains. Water jetting scrubs these deposits away, restoring functionality.
Breaks up stubborn sludge
Organic matter, grease, and food waste can form sludge in your pipes, which clogs over time. Water jetting cuts through and flushes it all out.
Emulsifies grease
Grease buildup is one of the most common causes of drain clogs, especially in kitchen drains. High-pressure water penetrates and emulsifies the grease, removing it completely.
Pulverizes tree roots
If tree roots have invaded your sewer line, water jetting can be a highly effective solution. The high-pressure water pulverizes roots, clearing the blockage without damaging your pipes.
Environmentally friendly
Water jetting is a safe, eco-friendly method of drain cleaning. Unlike chemical drain cleaners, it doesn’t introduce harmful substances into your plumbing or the environment.
When Should You Choose Water Jetting?
Water jetting can be used for both preventative maintenance and emergency situations. It’s an ideal solution if you’ve experienced recurring clogs, slow drainage, or if your pipes are prone to grease buildup. It’s also highly effective for older pipes where other methods might cause damage. Scheduling regular water jetting can extend the lifespan of your plumbing system and prevent costly repairs.
