Hydro Jetting
Hydro Jetting is a method used to clean and clear clogged or slow-moving drains-moving drains and sewer lines using high-pressure water streams. It involves inserting a specialized hose and nozzle into the plumbing system, which blasts water at very high pressures (often between 3,000 to 8,000 PSI) to remove grease, scale buildup, roots, and other debris from the pipe walls.

How Hydro Jetting Works
- Inspection - A plumber usually inspects the pipes with a camera to assess the blockage and ensure the pipes are in good condition.
- Access Point - The hose is inserted into the plumbing system though a cleanout or another access point.
- High-Pressure Water - Water is blasted through the nozzle at high pressure, breaking up and flushing out debris, grease, roots and mineral buildup.
- Cleaning - The strong water flow scours the inside of the pipes, restoring them to near -original condition.
Benefits of Hydro Jetting
* Effective for tough clogs and blockages

* Prevents future clogs by thoroughly cleaning pipe walls
* Works for residential and commercial plumbing systems
