Everything You Need to Know about Sewer Jetting

 

Have you been experiencing slow drains, backups, or clogs in your plumbing system? If so, it may be time to consider sewer jetting. Sewer jetting is a process that uses high-pressure water to clean and remove blockages from sewer lines. This service can save you time, money, and headaches. However, many homeowners are unfamiliar with sewer jetting and frequently ask questions. In this blog, we will answer everything you need to know about sewer jetting, including how often you should do it and why it's best to leave it to professionals.

What Is Sewer Jetting?

Sewer jetting is a plumbing service that utilizes specialized equipment to remove blockages, debris, and mineral buildup from sewer lines. A high-pressure water stream passes through a specialized nozzle that can break up even the toughest debris. A technician can effectively locate and remove whatever is causing the blockage through a remote camera that helps guide the wastewater moving through the sewer. Sewer jetting not only cleans the inside of your pipes but clears buildup.

How Often Should I Sewer Jet?

It's best and recommended to sewer jet your pipes every 18 months to two years and as necessary when clogs, backups, and slow drains occur. High-mineral water areas could require more frequent services; therefore, every homeowner's situation can vary. Consider scheduling a sewer inspection to determine the condition of your pipes and identify areas that may need attention.

Can I Try Sewer Jetting at Home?

In short, no, sewer jetting is not a DIY job. Letting professionals handle your sewer jetting needs is one of the best decisions you can make.

First, sewer jetting equipment is expensive and challenging to obtain, let alone operate--not to mention dangerous if not handled correctly--and should only be handled by professionals certified and can demonstrate training in using it.

Technicians have the know-how to avoid causing further damage to your pipes. Professionals also understand how to properly clean and sanitize the indoor space before/after the job is completed.
