Hydro Flushing Better Option Compared to Snake or Auger Type Cleaners

 
Using high speed / high pressure water to clear blockages in pipe systems is a better approach to cleaning and clearing blocked lines. Unlike conventional auger or snake type cleaners which tend to punch a hole in the existing blockage, hydro jetting/hydro flushing completely removes the blockage by scouring the inside of the pipe. Barring the possibility of a collapsed line, hydro-jetting will solve the problem. Using our video line inspection systems we are able to inspect and assess where the problem may be.

 The hydro-jetting process will clear the most stubborn line blockages and efficiently scour the entire pipe. This process should be a regular maintenance consideration for businesses such as parkaides, parking garages, restaurants, food processing operations and Property Managers for commercial and residential properties in Vancouver, Aldergrove, Surrey, Langley, Buranby, New Westminster, Delta or White Rock.

Why Choose Hydro-Flushing?

Hydro-Flushing is a tried and true technique in drain line clearance, and it’s the first choice of an Edenflo technician when there’s a problem with your sewer or storm water removal system. It offers many benefits over traditional mechanical means of clog removal.

Hydro-FlushingHydro-Flushing involves introducing water into the pipe at a very high pressure, dislodging both the clog and any accumulated sediment in the line all at once. The result is a drain line that is completely clear of debris, not just the removal of a single clog. Any material that doesn’t flow out to the sewer system is collected by the vacuum in our combo truck and removed that way. You are left with a system that is nearly as clean as it was when you installed it.

Because there’s no mechanical component, there are no errant metal tools involved in the process that can damage your drain system. No surprise repairs.

All Edenflo technicians are trained and experienced in the use of Hydro-Flushing equipment and methods. They can accurately assess the needs of your specific property and drainage system, and set about work in a way that will solve your problem in the shortest time, at the smallest cost.

Hydro-Flushing is a more efficient, effective, and economical way to solve the problems of a clogged sewer or septic line. It’s also useful as a preventive technique. Hydro-Flushing on a regular basis will ensure that your waste and storm water removal system will work as intended for years to come.

Slow Drainage? Don’t Replace the System! Hydro Flushing Gets Results!

Leave a reply

If your system is suffering from slow drainage, it can be easy to think about giving up and calling it quits. Even with all the trouble that it would involve, a new system would at least solve the problem. Fortunately, this isn’t necessary. Continue reading to discover a much easier solution to this nagging problem.

Reasons for Slow DrainingEdenflo Hydro Flushing for Edenflo
When it comes to your septic tank, there are a number of things that could be causing slow drainage. Debris, silt, and sludge can all be the cause, by themselves or in combination, but the result is the same: a frustratingly slow drain that could actually be the symptom of a much larger problem on the horizon.

Hydro Flushing to the Rescue
Fortunately, this doesn’t mean your septic system needs to be replaced. In reality, what it most likely needs is to be treated with a process known as hydro flushing.

The process is fairly self-explanatory. It’s a high-pressured way of flushing your drain. Basically, a hose is lowered down the drain with a specially made head at the bottom. This hose head directs the water out in all directions, similar to how sprinkler heads work in commercial buildings. By supplying the water at extremely high speeds, the drains are cleaned of all the silt, debris, and sludge caked on their walls.

Another, similar, process known as line jetting can also be used. Line jetting simply uses a hose that is 3” or smaller, whereas hydro flushing uses lines 4” or larger.

If your drains aren’t emptying like normal, you may have begun thinking your only option was to replace the system. Before you do, however, give Edenflo a call today. Their experts will be able to come take a look at your system and see if a simple dose of hydro flushing can do the trick instead.

Use Hydro Excavation and Hydro Flushing to Safely Expose Sensitive Utilities

Hydro evacuation is a fast process that uses specialized water evacuating equipment that can quickly vacuum up debris, sludge, dirt, and silt safely. The process can be completed until the required depth and width has been achieved. The process of hydro evacuation offers a non-destructive solution that incorporates pressurized water and a high level vacuum system as an easy solution for digging.

The process of hydro excavation also creates a quick way to visually observe any existing underground utility that could be harmed in a traditional evacuating (digging) process. It can significantly outperform all traditional excavators, augers, and horizontal impact drilling rigs. Typically, a conventional digging project would require bulldozers, augurs, bobcats and shovels. Every one of these tools can cause significant damage to many of the hidden utilities including electric cables, optic cables, water mains, sewage pipes, and most importantly, gas pipes.

Minimizes Construction Delays
Many times, construction needs to be delayed, when an unexpected underground utility is located during the construction phase of any small or large project. This is where the process of hydro flushing and hydro evacuation can safely expose the sensitive utilities.

Because the equipment has the ability to use non-destructive methods to evacuate most holes sizes, it can be used to quickly set signpost, utility poles, concrete forms, and anchors in the exact position where required, without any potential to damaging sensitive underground utility or wires.

Because the system can so quickly evacuate all loosened debris, silt and sludge it provides the optimal working area. It minimizes the extensive restoration costs to bring the site back to its original condition.

The hydro flushing equipment also has the ability to remove any buildup scaling, sludge or debris from the interior of a pipe or drain to remove the blockage immediately.

Property Managers: Schedule Hydro Flushing to Remove Blockages

Leave a reply

The drainage pipes in older structures often require expert attention, especially when there is a need to blow out drain lines. Many property owners across British Columbia deal with a variety of plumbing issues where the water lines are not properly feeding the structure with enough pressure, or the drain system simply has built up layers of crusted debris making it impossible for the sewage to pass.

Assessing the Problem
Using advanced equipment, a trained technician can inspect and evaluate the problem. They can use high-pressure flushing equipment to thoroughly clean out any line from ½ inch in diameter, up to 8 foot wide storm drains. By using hydro equipment, the property manager can avoid the need to tear up drain lines and water lines that might be penetrating through the structure’s foundation.

Debris Sludge and Grease
Usually, the single largest cause for any drain line blockage in a commercial or residential property is due to the buildup of debris, sand, sludge or grease, or a combination of two or more components. By using high pressure water jetting, the technician can easily penetrate the grease and emulsify it. The process also breaks up any debris and sludge and is even powerful enough to pulverize roots. The jetting water can also cut away any of the hardened packed scale and flush out the entire system.

The process of using high pressure water flushing equipment is very economical, highly efficient, and safe for the environment. It is the most effective way to clean out sewer and drain pipes.

Routine Maintenance
When used as a preventative measure, hydro flushing offers an easy way to prevent against the buildup of mineral deposits and grease, along with intense scaling caused by decomposing debris and sludge. Any clogged can cause significant problems that could easily cause significant loss to revenue and customers.

Specialized Hydro-excavation Services

Leave a reply

Hydro-excavation is the science of using pressurized water to dig the earth and remove accumulating debris with the aid of a powerful vacuum pump. Although the service is not widely available, hydro-excavation has acquired immense popularity in a short time for the fact that it is a non-destructive, eco-friendly and time-efficient means of excavation.

Hydro-excavation uses a modern multi-purpose pump-truck which is fitted with a high-pressure water gun, a vacuum pump and a storage tank for collecting residual matter. The water gun bombards the earth with pressurized water which is shot through a steel lance at incredible speeds of 2000 to 3000 PSI. This ensures that the excavation process is carried out cleanly and with clinical precision.

The resultant slurry of water and soil is then collected with the help of the eight-inch high-pressure vacuum line which sucks in the all the debris and residual matter, channeling it to the truck-mounted storage tank. The collected debris is then transported to a suitable location where it can be dumped safely so as to minimize environmental and health hazards.

Hydro-excavation particularly comes in handy during installation of underground utilities like cables and lines. This is particularly true when considering the fact that the complex underground distribution of existing pipes and electrical cables makes conventional manual excavation techniques or hydraulic units, highly susceptible to accidents and potential fatalities.

The fact that the entire excavation unit is truck-mounted means that it is extremely mobile and can be transported anywhere at short notice. This significantly reduces the response time it takes to address the distress calls of customers. Hydro-excavation is a surprisingly risk-free excavation procedure while also being surprisingly affordable.

Moreover, as the excavation process is precise and clean, minimal damage is done to individual property. This completely eliminates the repair costs that are usually incurred due to property damages that are inflicted by employing conventional excavation services. Hydro-excavation is a proven method that, to date, has not incurred injuries, utility damage or loss of service.

Hydro-excavation is a greener initiative too since it conserves the natural resources and environment while also minimizing the negative impacts of human involvement. By restricting the excavation process to a small radius, the process minimizes the disruption to the environment, ensuring easier post-excavation reclamation. The use of clean water to blast the earth and the ensured restriction of slurry to a localized area are some of the other unmatched benefits that the process offers.

Edenflo – Hydro Flushing

The words ‘blocked’, ‘drain pipes’ and ‘sewer pipes’ are often used together in sentences, suggesting how frequently homeowners are plagued by clogging and blockage problems. Both drainage pipes and sewers are highly susceptible to clogging due to excessive usage over time. Drain and sewer blockage can introduce homeowners to a range of problems such as spewing drains and regurgitating toilets. If proper and timely attention is not invested in the thorough cleaning of these drains, such problems, much to the chagrin of homeowners, become a regular feature that demands both money and time.

Hydro Flushing is an innovative new process that comprehensively cleans drains and sewers, ridding them of blocked waste material and debris. The process uses a truck-mounted unit that shoots heated water through drainage and sewerage pipes at incredibly high pressure. The high-pressure heated water bombards tough waste material and debris from every nook and cranny while also clearing out grease, silt, slime and sludge owing to its high temperature.

Apart from being a quick and comprehensive solution to drain blockage, Hydro Flushing also offers a range of conveniences to homeowners such as the economy of time. Because the process is so comprehensive and efficient at clearing out waste and debris from drainage pipes, homeowners are also saved from the recurring expenses that are generally associated with frequent blockages.

Moreover, the use of heated high-pressure water instead of sharp tools ensures that drainage pipes, especially plastic and fiber pipes, do not suffer from damage during the cleaning process. This saves customers from repair costs that they would otherwise have to pay if they had hired a company using conventional cleaning procedures.

Catch Basin Cleaning

Leave a reply

The need for catch-basin cleaning

Catch basins are openings for storm drain systems that catch sediments and debris through a curb, grate or sump. Catch basins stop trash from making their way into the drainage system while also to protecting the quality of the water by filtering out pollutants. Catch basins need regular cleaning and maintenance in order to ensure proper drainage. Sediment and debris that accumulates in the sump areas should be removed to allow free passage for water. Catch basins that are full of sediment and debris block the entrance to drainage systems and sewers. Other than to stop blockages, maintenance of catch basins is also important in order to prevent pollutants from entering sewers. This makes Catch basin cleaning a crucial and regular practice as pollutants that are allowed into sewers as a result of neglect are inevitably discharged into streams, waterways and lakes. Moreover, inadequate maintenance of catch basins causes accumulation of water in parking ways and along streets.

Our Catch-basin Cleaning System

We provide high-quality cleaning and maintenance services to anxious and annoyed customers in the Lower Mainlands of Canada. Our dedicated team of professional servicemen have years of experience in the service-based industry and are committed to providing faster and comprehensive cleaning of underground pipes, sewers and drainage systems. Fitted with all the necessary equipment needed for catch basin cleaning, our multipurpose trucks specialize in catch basin cleaning. We use an innovative technique that combines heated and pressurized water that is delivered through catch basin pipes at supersonic speed. This process effectively eliminates blockages even in the most unreachable areas of pipes such as bends and turns. Our multipurpose trucks are also mounted with industrially approved high-powered strength vacuums that cleanup catch basins effectively and efficiently.

How frequently should Catch Basins Be Cleaned?

How frequently catch basins should be cleaned varies from area to area. Typically, catch basins should be cleaned once every year to ensure that they are at their best. However, if you reside in an area that has higher levels of pollution, you should ensure that cleaning is done on a more frequent basis. This is because polluted cities have higher discharge of trash, waste and debris all of which can easily find their way into sewers and drainage pipes. It is therefore necessary to remove sediments and trash accumulated in sumps with our catch basin cleaning service.

Some ways to ensure clean catch basins

Catch cleaning services may only be required once a year if these preventive measures are followed religiously:

  1. When clearing sidewalks or driveways, dispose of debris and waste material properly using trash receptacles rather than sweeping it down gutters and catch basins.
  2. Remove debris and leaves immediately whenever you see such waste material blocking catch basins around your business or house
  3. Try to keep catch basins open during winters as snow mostly blocks them.
