Local Home Hydrojetting Services
Hydrojet plumbing involves the use of a machine that mixes water and air and releases that mixture under high pressure. That high-pressure stream can quickly break down old grease and other hard, dense accumulations.
Our Palm Springs plumbers will insert the hydrojetting line into the pipes that need cleaning and then enable the flow. This system also has a specialized head that forces the water against the pipe walls to clean them.
How do you know if you need hydrojetting services? The first step is to perform an inspection using a high-definition camera system. That will reveal the exact nature of the problem and the best way to deal with it.
For many local clogs, such as under a sink, it’s simply easier to use a manual or motorized drain auger. Due to the wall cleaning effect, hydrojet plumbing can be preferable when there’s scale and other accumulation on the pipe walls.
Plumbers most often use hydrojetting to clear sewer lines. Deep blockages in a sewer can manifest symptoms throughout your house. That includes multiple slow drains or sinks with standing water. You may experience foul odors and even sewage backups. Other signs include gurgling toilets and toilet bowl levels rising and falling for seemingly no reason.
Grease is a common substance that can build up in a sewer pipe over time, as can limescale and soap scum. Hydrojetting can remove foreign objects, such as those flushed by a child. It’s even effective at removing tree roots that have grown into the sewer pipe.
Hydrojetting is also very effective at preventing recurring repair issues. There are scenarios where it isn’t a viable option. If a pipe has many cracks, for instance, hydrojetting may undermine it totally. In that case, pipe relining or bursting may be the better approach.
