Hydro Jet Plumbing in Rockwall, TX
What Is Hydro Jetting and How Does It Work?
Hydro jetting is an advanced drain cleaning method that uses specialized equipment to blast high-pressure water (up to 5,000 PSI) through pipes. This powerful water stream completely scours pipe walls, eliminating not just clogs but also the buildup that causes recurring blockages.
Unlike traditional snake augers that simply punch holes through clogs, hydro jetting provides comprehensive pipe cleaning that prevents future problems. Our trained technicians use specialized nozzles and hoses designed to navigate your plumbing system safely while delivering maximum cleaning power.
The Hydro Jetting Process
- Video Inspection: We start with camera inspection to locate clogs and assess pipe condition
- Access Point Setup: Our technicians identify the optimal entry point for hydro jetting equipment
- High-Pressure Cleaning: Specialized nozzles deliver 3,000-5,000 PSI water pressure to blast away debris
- Final Inspection: Post-cleaning camera inspection confirms complete clearing and pipe integrity
