Introduction
If you’ve dealt with clogged drains, you may wonder whether hydro jetting is better than traditional snaking or chemical treatments. Let’s break down the differences and benefits of hydro jetting.
Traditional Drain Cleaning Methods
- Plumbing snakes: Mechanical devices that break through clogs but may not remove buildup completely.
- Chemical cleaners: Can dissolve minor clogs but may damage pipes and the environment.
- Manual removal: Effective for small blockages but labor-intensive and temporary.
Why Hydro Jetting is Superior
- Complete cleaning: Unlike snaking, hydro jetting removes grease, sludge, and mineral deposits.
- Long-term solution: Reduces the likelihood of repeat clogs.
- Eco-friendly approach: No harmful chemicals are needed.
- Pipe protection: Gentle on pipes when performed by professionals.
When Hydro Jetting is Most Effective
Hydro jetting is particularly effective for:
- Grease buildup in kitchen drains
- Root intrusions in sewer lines
- Mineral deposits in older plumbing
- Commercial kitchens or high-traffic drains
Preparing Your Home for Hydro Jetting
- Clear the area around drains
- Remove items sensitive to water pressure
- Inform family members or tenants about the process
