Hydro Jet Blocked Drain Clearing
What is Hydro Jett drain cleaning?
Hydro jetting is a plumbing technique used to clean and clear out clogged or blocked pipes and sewer lines. It involves using a high-pressure stream of water, at pressures of up to 4,000 PSI (pounds per square inch), to remove debris, grease, scale, and other build-ups from the interior of pipes. The powerful water jet pushes away and can even cut through blockages, including tree roots and mineral deposits to restore full flow capacity to your plumbing system.
dRAINS kLEEN uses Hydro jetting for both residential and commercial plumbing systems and is especially effective where mechanical methods, such as “drain snaking” (drain augering), may not be suitable. Hydro jetting is a non-invasive and environmentally friendly process that does not use harsh chemicals, and does not damage the pipe interior, making it the preferred option for maintaining and cleaning pipes. Additionally, hydro jetting helps prevent future blockages by thoroughly cleaning the pipes, reducing the likelihood of recurring issues.
dRAINS kLEEN’s high pressure water jetting machines are designed to clean pipes up to one meter in diameter, and are capable of jetting close to 100L of water a minute. The incredible power of the high speed water effectively scours the pipe walls, pushing away debris and removing grease and sludge buildup inside the pipe.
Depending on the type of blockage, we use a range of rotary nozzles, each with specific applications and suitable for different situations, which are attached to the jetting hose and used for cutting roots, clearing debris, and removing just about anything from your drain pipes, leaving the pipe line open and clean.
With the large US jetting trailer we can clean 150 meters of pipe from a single entry point, and the 1,135L water tank allows us to jet for longer before refill.
***For larger and more complicated jobs we can also have a recycler / vac combo unit on hand.***
CCTV Drain Pipe Surveys
The iPEK:ROVION® crawler camera systems are used to survey and report on both new and existing civil / industrial drainage systems, contributing to large part of the industrial / commercial drain services we offer. With this drain inspection equipment we can survey drains and pipes up to 2 meters+ in diameter and up to 200 meters from a single entry point.
Reporting is done on WinCan, on which we follow ‘Australian Specification Standards’ and cover all aspects legally required. Reports are turned around swiftly and presented for submission to the appropriate body for approval.
We capture crisp video footage & still images, when surveying drainage lines, ensuring our reports are comprehensive and coding is accurate.
Electronic Pipe Location
dRAINS kLEEN can accurately detect and trace the path of underground drainage systems and other utilities. This technique involves using a transmitter and receiver unit to locate pipes without the need to excavate, and allows our plumbers to pinpoint a pipe’s size, location, depth, and direction.
Electronic pipe location is useful to avoid damaging existing infrastructure if excavation is needed, to efficiently plan repairs, or to map out underground pipe networks. It is non-invasive and is used to accurately identify the exact position and depth of pipes, reducing the risk of costly mistakes and ensuring safety during digging.
Laser Profiling
Laser profiling scans the internal pipe structure creating a profile that clearly identifies defects and precisely proves pipe ovality (roundness). Perfect for monitoring ongoing structural changes that may be happening within a damaged pipe.
Trench-less Pipe Patch Repair (No dig, Re-line)
For broken pipes up to 400mm, rather than having to do costly excavations and ruining the foundations of the structure above, we regularly fix the damaged pipes by using a proven method of sectional pipe-relining to eliminate the problem. The industry leading pipe lining technologies we use, relines the walls of the pipe with a resin, which essentially forms a new pipe within the existing broken pipe.
Upon completion the resin will have filled all of the joins & cracks, re-enforcing the area around the once damaged area, completely sealing the break and leaving the drain with a smooth, strong, watertight interior lining, to last for at least the next 50+ years.
N.B: We also reline long runs of damaged pipe with our inversion drum, and do junction relining
