What Is Hydro Jetting?
Hydro jetting is a process that utilizes high-velocity water pressure to clean the inside of your sewer or drain line. Using 4,000 PSI of water pressure and specialized nozzles to direct flow, your Irvine drain expert can use hydro jetting technologies to unclog your sewer line and restore your system back to working order.

Why Choose Hydro Jetting?
If left untreated, backed up and clogged pipes can lead to more serious issues, such as leaks, flooding, and a contaminated water supply.

What’s the Difference Between Hydro Jetting and Snaking?
There are a few different ways to remove clogs, but hydro jetting and snaking are two of the most common methods. Hydro jetting relies on high-pressure water to break up clogs and flush them out of your drains while snaking involves the insertion of a long, flexible rod into your drain to physically break up clogs.

Pros & Cons of Hydro Jetting
Pros
- Most effective at clearing clogs - As far as what solution is the best for clearing out clogs, hydro jetting is the winner and it doesn't come close. While a snake might get enough of the clog out, hydro jetting will clear out the whole pipe.
- Good for clogs that are too far for snakes - Not all clogs happen in areas that are reachable by drain snakes or augers. For serious clogs in your sewer line for example, our Irvine hydro jetting experts can help out no problem.
- More cost-effective than drain cleaning - While drain cleaning with a snake or an auger can be a band-aid solution, you may need drain cleaning again in a matter of months. Hydro jetting will fully clear out your drain so you won't need services for a while.
- Environmentally friendly - Hydro jetting is done with just highly pressurized water, so compared to chemical drain cleaners, it's much better for the environment.
Cons
- Can be too much for old pipes - Not all pipe networks were built to withstand the amount of pressure hydro jetting brings. If you have any doubts about your pipes, our Irvine hydro jetting experts will be able to assess your situation and prescribe the best solution for you and your home.
- Can't remedy all drain problems - For more serious drain obstructions that require a rooter, or damaged pipes like a bellied line, hydro jetting might not be the best option.
Is Hydro Jetting a DIY Project?
No. While it is technically possible to DIY hydro jetting with a rented pressure washer, it is not recommended. The process is only safe when performed by a trained professional. There is a risk of serious injury if you don't know what you're doing. Pressure washers can generate up to 4,000 PSI (pounds per square inch) of water pressure, which is enough to cause severe injuries. In addition, DIY hydro jetting can damage your drains if not done properly. If you are interested in hydro jetting services for your home, call a professional plumber.
