Phoenix Hydro-Jetting Service FAQ's
Hydro-Jetting FAQs
What is hydro-jetting?
Hydro-jetting is a professional drain and sewer cleaning method that uses high-pressure water to clean the entire interior surface of a pipe. It removes grease, sludge, debris, mineral buildup, and small root intrusion rather than just clearing a small opening through a clog.
How is hydro-jetting different from drain snaking?
Drain snaking creates a temporary path through a blockage but does not remove buildup from the pipe walls. Hydro-jetting fully cleans the pipe, restoring proper flow and reducing the chance of recurring clogs.
When is hydro-jetting recommended?
Hydro-jetting is recommended for recurring clogs, slow drains throughout the property, sewer backups, grease buildup, and situations where previous drain cleaning has not resolved the issue long term.
Is hydro-jetting safe for my plumbing system?
Hydro-jetting is safe for properly functioning pipes when performed by a professional. A sewer camera inspection is used beforehand to confirm that the pipe condition is suitable for hydro-jetting.
Can hydro-jetting remove tree roots?
Hydro-jetting can remove small to moderate root intrusion inside the pipe. If roots are entering through damaged sections of pipe, repairs may be recommended to prevent regrowth.
How long does hydro-jetting take?
Most residential hydro-jetting services are completed within a few hours. The exact time depends on the severity of the buildup and the size of the system.
Sewer Camera Inspection FAQs
What is a sewer camera inspection?
A sewer camera inspection uses a specialized camera to view the inside of a drain or sewer line in real time. This allows problems to be identified accurately without guesswork.
What issues can a camera inspection detect?
Camera inspections can identify grease buildup, debris, root intrusion, cracked or offset pipes, standing water, and other issues that affect drainage and flow.
Why is a camera inspection included with hydro-jetting?
Camera inspections ensure the correct service is performed and allow results to be verified after cleaning. This confirms that the line has been fully cleared.
Can a camera inspection be scheduled by itself?
Yes. Sewer camera inspections can be scheduled as a standalone service when customers need answers before deciding on cleaning or repairs.
Will I be able to see the inspection results?
Yes. The inspection allows the condition of the line to be viewed and explained clearly, so customers understand what was found.
Enzyme Drain Treatment FAQs
What is enzyme drain treatment?
Enzyme drain treatment uses natural bacteria and enzymes to break down organic material such as grease, food waste, and soap residue inside drain lines.
Is enzyme treatment a replacement for hydro-jetting?
No. Enzyme treatment is a maintenance solution. Hydro-jetting is required for active clogs, heavy buildup, or sewer backups.
When is enzyme drain treatment recommended?
Enzyme treatment is recommended for preventive maintenance, grease management, odor control, and ongoing care after hydro-jetting has been completed.
Is enzyme treatment safe for pipes?
Yes. Enzyme treatments do not contain harsh chemicals and are safe for properly functioning plumbing systems when used as directed.
How long does enzyme treatment take to work?
Enzyme treatment works gradually over time. It is not an instant solution and is intended for long-term maintenance rather than immediate clog removal.
