Cedar Bluff Hydro Jetting

Have you tried everything to clear your pipes of unwanted blockages, but nothing seemed to do the trick? If your drains are suffering from some kind of blockage and other methods are not having any effect, it is time to consider using something more powerful. Cedar Bluff hydro jetting is the fastest and most efficient method of unblocking drains. By using water at very high pressure, we can make quick work of removing all kinds of blockages where other, more traditional, methods of unblocking a pipe have failed.

The Jetting Process

The Cedar Bluff hydro jetting process involves using water at very high pressures in order to shift stubborn and unwanted materials from your sewer pipes, including grease, dirt, sand and a variety of other issues. The water pressure utilized in this process can get as high as 3,500 psi, which is industrial grade. It is this pressure that helps to scour the inside of the pipe, leaving it clear and free-flowing.

The flow rate of the water is around 18 gallons per minute. The equipment used during the Cedar Bluff hydro jetting technique consists of a large tank of clean water, a hose and nozzle designed to withstand high pressures, and a pumping machine which helps to generate the needed 3,500 psi pressure.

All sewer and outlet pipes are angled downwards so water is carried along using the force of gravity. However, the Cedar Bluff hydro jetting process forces water in the opposite direction – helping to shift stubborn debris – which will then exit the pipe downstream.

The hydro jetting process is a great way to remove blockages that have resisted other methods of clearing, such as snaking. Hydro jetting is also a method that is used to help clean pipes before they are lined, due to the fact that any debris in the pipe can cause the epoxy resin lining to become damaged or ineffective.

Other Benefits of Hydro Jetting

Tree roots and mineral deposits can have a detrimental effect on the functionality of a sewer or outlet pipe. Only the Cedar Bluff hydro jetting process is effective enough to clear and remove these types of blockages. If root invasion has been detected, this is a serious problem that may have affected the integrity of the pipe and a more detailed inspection should be carried out as the pipe may need urgent repair or replacement.
