One of the reasons why aging septic tanks age faster is because of debris and drain clogs that have not been removed by cleaning services like snaking or electric cable machines. The same clogs are causing back ups in your sinks. Hydro jetting is one way to clean these remaining bulks of debris in the drains to flush it out of the septic tank system.
What is hydro jetting?
Hydro jetting is one way to keep that aging septic tank working for few more years. It helps maintain your aging septic tank by removing the debris and other clogs that your drain has accumulated over time. Hydro jetting is one of the most effective ways of maintaining an aging septic tank as it can remove accumulated dirt that cannot be done by other septic tank services like snaking. Highly trained individuals facilitate hydro jetting, as this service requires heavy equipments for pressure.
How does it work?
Hydro jetting works by exerting pressure at 1600 to 4000 pounds per minute on your drains to remove the clogs and other debris that cannot be removed by simply snaking it or by other electric cable machines.
Hydro jetting tools are inserted in the pipes of your drains. Through the heavy pressure, the tool moves forward and removes all sands, grease and other clogs in the pipes. There are two pressures that work here – one that fires forward and another firing backwards. The latter plays heavier role, as it is not only responsible for the tool’s forward movement, but also in breaking the clogs and debris at the walls of the drainpipes.
Clogs are not the only foreign materials that can be removed through hydro jetting. When used in a residential setting, the strong pressure of the tool removes as well the tree roots that have crossed its boundaries toward your drainpipes.
There are drainpipes problems that cannot just removed by simple snaking or using electric machine. If your pipe has not been cleaned for years and you have been bothered by back ups whenever you are using the sinks, you might need to hydro jet your drains to remove those clogs that it accumulated through the years.
