The Simple Science Behind Hydrojetting

Feel as if your plumbing isn’t working up to par? You know the struggle: you begin to flush your toilet and the water isn’t coming back up as fast as you’re used to. Many times this issue is the result of debris buildup in your plumbing pipes — which can be quite the difficult task to remove the blockage on your own. Before you pick up that wrench again, have you looked into hydrojetting? Here’s how it works:

What Does Hydrojetting Do?

Unlike a traditional (and harmful) chemical drain cleaner, hydrojetting is the method of clearing your pipes with a forceful jet of water. Instead of using a drain snake or any other plumbing tool, hydrojetting is the smartest, most time-saving method in the industry. Not only will this take less than an hour to complete — but it won’t dismantle your home or your lawn.

How Does It Work?

To start: think of the process of hydrojetting like sticking a garden hose inside of a larger garden hose. When you schedule a hydrojetting session for your home’s plumbing, a small hose is inserted within the sewer pipe. From there, this hose shoots hot water pressure throughout the pipe, cutting up any debris that may be blocking the flow of water. Once the process is finished, your home’s plumbing pipes will be as good as new — and with no blockages!

Why Is This Beneficial?

When a pipe has debris build-up in your home, it will not only prevent water from flowing freely throughout your pipes — but it will make your water bill rise, since more water pressure will be used to get around the blockage. When you schedule a hydrojetting session with Pipe Wrench, we’ll make the process as simple as possible — leaving you with plumbing pipes that will work as if they were brand new! In addition: when you have your pipes hydrojetted, it will increase their lifespan — so you won’t have to replace them anytime soon!
