What is water jetting?

Water jetting is a plumbing technique that utilizes highly pressurized water streams to clear stubborn blockages and debris from drains and sewer lines, restoring optimal flow.

How does water jetting differ from traditional drain cleaning methods?

Unlike traditional methods that rely on mechanical equipment, water jetting employs pressurized water to clear drains, offering a more effective and thorough cleaning process while protecting pipes from damage.

What are the benefits of water jetting?

Water jetting effectively removes grease, sediment, and other buildup from pipes, preventing clogs and improving overall drainage. It’s environmentally friendly, non-invasive, and ideal for maintaining plumbing systems.

What is sewer jetting?

Sewer jetting is similar to water jetting but specifically targets sewer lines. It utilizes high-pressure water streams to clear obstructions, roots, and debris from sewer pipes, ensuring proper flow and preventing backups.

When should I consider water jetting or sewer jetting services?

Water jetting or sewer jetting services are recommended when traditional drain cleaning methods fail to clear stubborn clogs or when preventive maintenance is needed to keep plumbing systems running smoothly.

Are water jetting and sewer jetting safe for my pipes?

Yes, water jetting and sewer jetting are safe for pipes when performed by trained professionals. The high-pressure water used in these techniques effectively clears blockages without causing damage to pipes, making them a reliable and efficient solution for maintaining plumbing systems.

Water Jetting in Action - The Power of High-Pressure Water

Watch as Rooter Man uses water jetting to clear a stubborn roof drain! Water jetting is an incredibly versatile method that can tackle virtually any type of drain, from kitchen sinks and floor drains to commercial roof drains. By using high-pressure water, our licensed professionals remove grease, debris, and buildup quickly and efficiently, preventing clogs and protecting your plumbing system. With nearly 20 years of experience, we know how to apply hydro jetting safely and effectively across a wide range of plumbing challenges.

Advantages of Water Jetting

The key goals of a technician in removing debris from pipes are to break up the clog, push or pull all of the debris out of the pipe, and clean the inside of the pipe to prevent another clog from building up quickly–all while avoiding causing damage to the inside of the pipe itself. Pipe cleaning systems that scrape or knock against the pipe can break the pipe or negatively impact its structural integrity, leading to cracks and leaking.

Powerful Yet Safe

Water jetting strikes the perfect balance. With thousands of PSI in water pressure, water jetting equipment is able to blast apart clogs formed by even very hard substances like clay, tree roots, and even nonorganic objects like plastic toys that sometimes get accidentally flushed down bathtub drains. The water flow, however, does not damage the material of which the pipes are made, making it an ideal choice for clearing plumbing systems.

Our Water Jetting Equipment

Trailer jetter. This large unit is capable of jetting even very large commercial systems. It features a 200-foot hose and carries a 200-gallon water tank. With the potential for 3,200 PSI and eight to ten gallons of water flow per minute, our technicians choose this unit when plenty of power is needed.
JM-1000 Mini-Jettm. Not all drain cleaning projects require the scope and power of the trailer jetter. For small residential clogs, the Mini-Jet system is often a better option. This unit is the size of a small suitcase and can be used by the plumber to clear a pipe with up to 1,500 PSI.

Trust Our Water Jetting Experts

Our technicians have access to several water jetting options, and they choose the best unit for the job based on its size and the nature of the clog. When you call Rooter Man of SC to address a clogged plumbing system at your home or commercial property, you can count on service from a team that is well equipped, trained, and experienced.

Warning Signs of a Clogged Pipe

Spotting the warning signs that a pipe is clogged isn’t difficult, but often the tendency of the homeowner is to underestimate the danger that those warning signs indicate. If you notice any of these factors, you should get in touch with Rooter Man of SC right away to schedule an inspection.

Commercial Applications

Commercial plumbing systems are different in many important ways from residential systems. They are not simply bigger versions of the same network of pipes, although generally it is true that commercial plumbing handles much higher volumes of water and waste than home systems. Restaurant kitchens, for instance, dispose of large amounts of organic matter (food waste) and grease, which can clog plumbing systems without regular maintenance and water jetting.

Spotting a Clog In the System

Standing water in sinks or tubs is the most obvious signal that your plumbing system has a clog. If home drain cleaning products don’t take care of the problem, a more powerful solution like water jetting is necessary. Once a certain amount of debris has collected inside the pipes, cleaning products are unable to remove the clog sufficiently to restore flow.

Highly recommended this company and the technician Travis. He is very professional and explains everything to you. Also appreciate the same day response for a stressful water emergency.
Look forward to doing business with this company and especially Travis in the future. The person who schedules your appointment will narrow it down to a couple hours which is highly useful when waiting.

Dean has come to our home a couple times now to fix various issues. He always gets the job done, and in a timely manner. When there was a mysterious odor coming from our toilet, we weren’t sure if it was the toilet seat (an easier, cheaper fix) or if there was an issue with the flooring around the base of the toilet (definitely a more expensive fix). He could have easily started with the “tougher” fix and charged more, but instead he told us he would start with the easier thing first and take it from there. We definitely feel we can trust him, which can be hard to find.

FAQs

Are clogs dangerous for my plumbing system?

Aside from the inconvenience it causes, a clog creates unsanitary conditions (standing water in tubs and showers) and also increases pressure on the pipes above and around the clog.

Why do my fixtures seem to be connected when water is flushed?

If a flushing toilet or a running faucet causes a dramatic change in the water flow at another fixture in the house, that is an indication that a blockage somewhere in the plumbing system is interfering with water flow.

Why are strange smells coming from my pipes?

As organic matter and mineral deposits build up in pipes, they give off unpleasant odors. In addition, air bubbles created by irregular water flow due to clogs create gurgling and splashing sounds when drains are used.
