UNDERSTANDING YOUR SEWER LINES

There are many signs that you may need sewer jetting at your home or business. For example, at your home you may experience slow water drainage in your bathroom sink, kitchen sink, shower or bathtub. There can be a variety of reasons that may cause a clogged line or a build up of some kind in your plumbing line(s). Your shower drain may have a build up of hair combined with shaving cream, conditioner, soap scum residue and mineral deposits and after weeks or even months of this repeated over and over may cause a build up in your drains therefore possibly needing a sewer jetting service. Your kitchen may have food debris or solidified grease stuck in the line therefore causing water flow and drainage problems.

Below are just a few of the simple steps to follow that will help you and your pipes.

SOME SIMPLE WAYS TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR SEWER LINES -

1. When preparing food in the kitchen try not to allow large pieces of food to go down your drain also NEVER poor grease down your drain (most common mistake) When the grease cools it hardens into a solid therefore clogging up your drain.

2. Another very common mistake but a very important one - DO NOT flush tampons down the toilet. Tampons expand in your pipes therefore obstructing the pathways for flow. Although this may seem strange or unsanitary, that is not true at all. Most public facilities furnish their bathrooms with trash receptacles for this very reason. If your at home or at another residence simple wrap the tampon in toilet paper and place in the trash can.

WHAT IS SEWER JETTING?

Sewer jetting is a simple process which involves the use of a high pressure hose and water. The pressure is between 2500-4000psi and 3 GMP to 20 GMP. During the jetting process the pressure can be adjusted as needed The hose is put into the line with the problem and the pressure loosens the clog then either pushes the debris back up to be removed by a pump truck otherwise known as a "vacuum truck". This process can also be used for GREASE as well. This process is simple and cost effective. Your pipes will be running like new again!
