Hydro Jetting and Sewer Line Cleaning

Identifying Sewer Blockages

Though it’s unseen, your sewer line remains a vital component in cases of plumbing complications.

When you encounter any of these signs, a blockage might be affecting your sewer line:

• Bubbling water appears in your toilet.
• You see wastewater coming up in the shower when the toilet flushes.
• Your sinks and showers drain sluggishly.
• Sewer odors and gurgling sounds emit from your drains.

The professionals at Clanton Plumbing Services can determine whether the blockage is in one drain or your sewer line. A clogged sewer line demands quick response to avoid water overflow into your living spaces. Our professionals advocate the process of hydro jetting to remove any blockages from your sewer line.

Hydro Jetting Explained

This technique, similar to power washing, involves powerful jets of water for clearing the pipe interior.

The process applies water pressure levels from 2,000 to 4,000 psi to remove accumulated grease, roots, sludge, and debris from the sewer pipe.

Hydro Jetting Process Overview

The first step in hydro jetting involves a video pipe inspection.

The visual assessment helps us ensure hydro jetting is appropriate for the sewer pipe’s state.

When ready, we place a hose into your sewer cleanout, activate the hydro jetting machine, and flush out debris with powerful water blasts.

After clearing the pipe, we take another video inspection to confirm satisfactory cleaning.

Maintaining Sewer Lines with Hydro Jetting

Regular hydro jetting can keep your sewer line in top shape by clearing out grease, tree roots, and other build-ups.

For businesses, hydro jetting annually is best, while for homes, a two-to-three-year interval is sufficient.
