Hydro jetting, also known in plumbing speak as water jetting or hydro scrubbing, is a method of scouring and cleaning sewer pipes. A hose shoots water at an extremely high pressure through the pipes. The stream of water cuts through the grime, build up and debris clinging to the sewer pipes and lines. Hydro jetting is a green plumbing technology. Since no harmful or detrimental chemicals are used, hydro jetting does not harm or pollute the environment in any way. It is similar to the concept of power washing, where streets and driveways are cleaned by a strong force of water being applied to them. Every plumbing system out there contains a clean out, which is an opening specifically added to the system so that plumbers can remove any back up or debris. Every plumbing system is also designed so that unclean water flows down and out of the system. Plumbers use a hydro jetter to for this process. A hydro jetter is made up of a water tank, a high pressure nozzle and hose, and water pressurizing machine. Plumbers put the high pressure nozzle in the clean out, so the water goes up against the natural downstream flow of the system. They do this so that the build up being removed will flow downwards, through the pipes that are debris free. A plumber will typically recommend hydro jetting when a snake line will not be sufficient to fix clogged pipes. If pipes need to be lined, hydro jetting is necessary beforehand so as to remove any debris. Otherwise, the lining might not bond properly to the pipe. In some cases, hydro jetting is not recommended. For example, while it is ideal for the header line going from the house to the outdoor septic lines that are backed up, it is not a good suggestion for the outdoor septic lines themselves. Outdoor septic lines have tiny holes in them so that the soil around them can be naturally treated. When hydro jetting is used on them, the high pressure water can bring tiny bits or gravel in through the holes and obstruct the septic lines even further. In other situations, however, hydro jetting works wonders. Thick roots, mineral deposits, sludge and other back up such as hair, soap scum, grease, oil and paper can all be removed very successfully with this process. With the green component of hydro jetting as well, the benefits are many. Mr. Speedy Plumbing is 24 hour emergency plumbing company serving Los Angeles and Orange County.
