Two of the most common tools for drain cleaning are hydro-jetters and drain snakes (a.k.a. drain augers). Which one does the best cleaning job?<\/p>\n
To answer the question, we need to look at what exactly each tool does. Drain snakes, which also come in simple consumer models, consist of a flexible metal coil that can drill down into obstructions in drains and break them and remove them. A hydro-jetter sprays out high-pressure blasts of water along the interior of a drainpipe, with a special nozzle directing the blasts in all directions.<\/p>\n
Drain snakes \u00addo<\/em> have a role in cleaning drains, and we recommend using a store-bought drain snake rather than ever pouring any caustic chemical \u201ccleaners\u201d down a drain. But a drain snake doesn\u2019t provide actual thorough cleaning. It can take care of clogs, but even the best motorized drain snake doesn\u2019t have the complete cleaning power of a hydro-jetter. Hydro-jetting uses water pressure to also cut through grease and the debris inside the drain. In the hands of a professional (and only<\/em> professionals should use them), a hydro-jetter can restore a drainpipe or sewer line to almost new condition. A drain snake will leave behind debris that will make it easy for build-up to start up once more, while a hydro-jetter leaves nothing behind but a smooth surface.<\/p>\n Whether you have a tough clog or you want to arrange for routine drain cleaning services, go with a company like ours that put the hydro-jetter to its best use.<\/p>\n
