What Is Hydro Jetting?

Hydro jetting is a plumbing service that uses a specialized nozzle and high-pressure water to clean the full interior of a drain or sewer line. Unlike a drain snake that pokes a hole through a clog, hydro jetting cleans the entire pipe wall.

Why Hydro Jetting Outperforms Drain Snaking

Drain snaking breaks through a clog to restore flow but leaves grease and buildup on pipe walls. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to clean the entire interior of the pipe, removing the material that causes recurring clogs. This makes hydro jetting more effective for repeated backups, main sewer line blockages, and preventive maintenance.

Hydro Jetting FAQs

What is hydro jetting used for?

Hydro jetting is used to remove grease, sludge, mineral scale, organic buildup, and small tree roots from drain and sewer lines using controlled high-pressure water.

How much pressure does hydro jetting use?

Most residential hydro jetting systems operate between 2,000 and 4,000 PSI. Pressure is adjusted based on pipe material, diameter, and condition after inspection.

Is hydro jetting better than drain snaking?

Yes. Drain snaking breaks through clogs, but hydro jetting cleans the full interior of the pipe, reducing the chance of recurring blockages.

Can hydro jetting remove tree roots?

Hydro jetting can cut and flush out small root intrusions and organic root growth. Severe root damage may require additional repair.

Is hydro jetting safe for older sewer pipes?

Hydro jetting can be safe for older pipes when a camera inspection confirms the pipe is structurally sound and water pressure is properly controlled.

How long do hydro jetting results last?

Results often last several years. Longevity depends on pipe condition, usage habits, and whether grease or debris continues entering the system.

How often should hydro jetting be done?

Most homes benefit from hydro jetting every two to three years. Commercial systems with heavy use often require annual service.
