How often should you hire a Hydro Jetting Service?

If you’re interested in hiring a hydro jetting service you may be unsure how often it’s needed. Hydro jetting services completely clear and clean pipelines, leaving water flowing freely. For optimal function of plumbing and sewer systems, we recommend regular hydro jetting services. In this article we will explore how often this service should be done, why it’s important and the benefits.

Why is regular Hydro Jetting important?

Hydro jetting uses high pressure water to break through any clog or blockage and completely clear the interior of the pipeline. Regular maintenance on plumbing systems avoids serious blockages from forming and potentially damaging your home or property.

With time and use drains and pipes can fill up with debris, hair and grease. Tree roots can also develop in the pipeline. Below you can see a real-life example of a root ball So-Cal Hydro Jet pulled out of an area drain. All these can lead to serious blockages. Regular inspections and maintenance can prevent future major repairs.

How often?

At So-Cal Hydro Jet we generally recommend annual inspections and hydro jetting services. However, depending on the use and conditions of the property, we occasionally recommend biannual hydro jetting. Some factors to take into consideration before programming your hydro jetting service are:

• Age – Because of possible decay and buildup, more regular hydro jetting is suggested for older plumbing systems.
• Usage – Properties with larger occupancy or usage may require frequent hydro jetting in order to ensure proper flow.
• History – If your property has a history of frequent clogs and blockages, we recommend regular hydro jetting to avoid buildup and more extensive issues.
• Surroundings – Properties surrounded by trees are more likely to have tree roots disrupt their plumbing systems. Regular inspection and hydro jetting services prevent complete blockages of pipes.

Benefits of regular maintenance

Regular hydro jetting services as maintenance for your plumbing system offers a number of benefits. To name just a couple:

• Thorough cleaning – Nothing cleans out drains and pipes like hydro jetting. With just the use of high pressured water, clear any blockage or clog.
• Prevention – Regular hydro jetting prevents severe blockages from forming and completely stopping water flow.
• Avoid Expensive Repairs – By keeping pipelines and entire systems flowing properly you avoid repairs from burst pipes or backflows.
• Extends Plumbing Lifespan – Maintaining the lines clean and free from blockages can extend the lifespan of your entire plumbing system.
• Improve Drain Efficiency – No blockages means free flowing water. Say goodbye to foul odors and stagnant water in drains.
• Cost-Effective – Programming hydro jetting as regular maintenance reduces repair costs, proving to be cost effective in the long run.
• Environmentally Friendly – Because hydro jetting services only use water, no harsh chemicals or other materials are distributed into the water systems.
• Reduces Bacteria – Hydro jetting removes even bacteria and other contaminants from the pipelines, contributing to the health of all occupants.
