In our last post, we talked about the importance of arranging for preventive drain cleaning in your home to prepare it for the big feasting holidays. In this post, we want to focus on why you only want professionals to do this drain cleaning job. It’s not something you can do by pouring bottles of chemical “drain cleaners” down all the drains in your home. Those chemicals are actually quite bad for drains and won’t do a thorough job.
No, you need the pros—and you specifically need pros who use hydro-jetting in Atlanta, GA homes for the best results. We’re experts when it comes to using hydro-jetting equipment, and today we want to explain what this technology is and why we use it for our customers.
What Is Hydro-Jetting?
Hydro-jetting is a powerful, high-pressure cleaning method used to clear out tough clogs and buildup from inside your plumbing pipes. Unlike traditional methods, such as using a drain snake or chemical cleaners, hydro-jetting utilizes a stream of highly pressurized water (up to 4,000 psi) to blast away grease, scale, soap scum, food waste, and even tree roots. The process ensures that your pipes are left as clean as the day they were installed, with no residue left behind to cause future blockages.
Why Hydro-Jetting Is the Superior Choice for Drain Cleaning
There are several reasons why hydro-jetting stands out as the best option for cleaning your drains, especially before the busy holiday season:
- Thorough Cleaning: Unlike snakes that punch a small hole through a clog, hydro-jetting scours the entire pipe wall. This eliminates all buildup, not just the blockage, which reduces the chance of future clogs.
- Environmentally Friendly: Hydro-jetting only uses water, making it a safer option for your plumbing system and the environment. It doesn’t rely on harsh chemicals that can damage your pipes over time or contaminate the water supply.
- Removes Tough Blockages: Hydro-jetting is effective even against stubborn clogs like grease buildup, mineral deposits, or tree roots. If your home’s plumbing system is prone to recurring issues, this method can restore the flow to its maximum capacity.
- Prevents Future Clogs: Because hydro-jetting removes all debris, not just part of it, it slows the buildup of future clogs, extending the life of your pipes.
- Safe for Most Plumbing: Professional plumbers know how to use the right pressure level to avoid damage, meaning hydro-jetting is safe for most residential plumbing systems. However, it’s always important to trust experts to assess your pipes and determine if hydro-jetting is appropriate.
