If you’ve ever had the unfortunate experience of a blocked drain or sewage system, then you know how frustrating it can be. Blocked drains can cause several different problems, including clogs and backups in your pipes.
n
The most common way to remedy this problem is by using a drain auger or drain snake. Drain jetting is another option that may be able to help unclog your drains.
There are many reasons why a drain can get blocked: grease or oil poured down the sink, hair clogging the shower, coffee grains or tea leaves tipped away down the drain rather than being put into the compost, and even sanitary products or cat litter wrongly disposed of down the toilet, can all cause a drain blockage.

Drain jetting is a method of cleaning drains that uses high-pressure water to clear clogs. This method can be used in both residential and commercial environments however it is not recommended for industrial applications where there are very heavy debris loads or high volumes of solids.
n
The jetter nozzle consists of a gas generator, which creates the pressure required to propel the water through the pipe, two filtration stages (the first removes large particles from the water stream), a valve assembly (to control flow rate), an air release valve and a pilot light/igniter assembly.
n
The operator activates this unit by turning on a switch located on top of the nozzle handle which activates electrical energy that ignites compressed air within an internal chamber that produces pressurized steam within seconds—this steam then expands out through small ports along each side of its bulkhead surface area at speeds up to 300 m/s (750 mph).
n
The amount of pressure used during this process depends on what type of problem you’re dealing with, for example, if there’s just some buildup in one spot, then lower levels will do just fine; however, if there has been recent flooding due to burst pipes or something else related to large amounts of water flowing through them at once, then higher levels are needed because there might be some debris lodged farther down inside where only high-pressure jets can reach them.
n
You don’t have to wait until you have a clog in your drains before you choose to use drain jetting. It can be a useful tool as part of your annual building maintenance to ensure that any debris or limescale accumulating in the drainpipe network does not lead to a more serious blockage later on.
n
If you have been doing any building work or DIY within the home, it can also help you avoid any problems occurring from cleaning the builder’s buckets and equipment that have been washed out in the indoor sink or outdoor tap causing any kind of problem. If you have a cesspit, drain jetting may be used to flush out the pipework after emptying and avoid insects or vermin becoming attracted to the environment.

Drain jetting is better than other methods of drains clearance because it is:

Drain jetting is a very effective way to clear drains and is much faster than other methods. It’s also more effective than using a plunger or snake, and it can be used in situations where chemicals may not be an option.

Taking care of your drains with regular drain jetting can help ensure that you avoid any untimely problems.
n
It’s always a good idea to have your drains jetted every few years, especially if you have had a clog in the past and haven’t changed your habits. This is where a professional comes in handy. If you’re not comfortable with having someone else work on your pipes, consider doing it yourself—just make sure that whatever method of clearing the drain you use is safe for use around the pipes themselves. You can also call on friends or family members to help!
