Hydro Jetting

Hydro-jet cleaning uses high pressure streams of water to remove virtually all build up in tanks and lines.Unlike chemicals and enzymes which remove very little build up and can be detrimental to the environment, hydro-jet cleaning completely cleans all holding tanks with no ill effects to the environment.The hydro-jetting machine system includes a large tank of water, a special high-pressure hose, a special high-strength nozzle and a motor that pressurizes the water in the hose. The water pressure can be more than 3500 psi (pounds per square inch) and a flow rate of 18gpm (gallons per minute). Most plumbing companies that offer hydro-jetting services will have the system situated on a trailer, so they can move to different locations for services. Hydro Jetting is typically done through an opening called a cleanout, which is an accessible opening present in every plumbing system and designed to allow plumbers to easily \"clean out\" debris and other clogs. Every plumbing system is designed to carry waste water \"downstream\" using gravity. The Hydro Jetting nozzle is placed at the \"downstream\" end of the plumbing system and it works its way \"upstream\" against gravity. That way, any debris that is cleared out by the Hydro Jetter will harmlessly flow downstream where the drainage path is already clear. The Hydro Jetters are capable of clearing out sewer lines over a length of several hundred feet.Hydro Jetting can easily cut through the most stubborn roots and debris and remove built-up mineral deposits and other obstructions clogging the inside of your drainage line.Although Hydro Jetting is strong enough to clear out roots from your sewer lines, any amount of root penetration is cause for serious concern. Root penetration pervasive enough to cause repeated backups indicates that the roots have gotten thick enough over time to damage the pipe and its protective waterproof inner coating. In those instances, plumbing companies recommend getting a camera inspection to determine the seriousness of the condition.
