Sewer Cleaning

Our Methods for Sewer Cleaning

When our team uses a truck to unblock a sewer line, our professional team uses a combination of two cleanings methods: jetting and vacuuming. Jetting is a system in which a high-pressure water hose with a sewer-jetting nozzle is inserted into an unclean pipeline. High-pressure is then released from the sewer jet truck to extricate dirt and flush it away. Vacuuming extracts dirt through a vacuuming system, and then solids and water are unloaded into a sludge tank. Our experts also use snake devices to break through compact waste and chemicals to gradually break up and disintegrate organic material that causes an obstruction.

Combining Methods

When jetting and vacuuming are simultaneously performed, this makes cleaning more productive. Sewer equipment that is capable of jetting and vacuuming makes it feasible for one person to run the jetter and vacuum hose, while the other individual stands upstream of the manhole to ensure that the hose is moving forward as it should. This individual will also see that the hose has extended to the end of the manhole.

Benefits of Sewage Cleaning Equipment

The dedicated sewer cleaning equipment from Five Star Septic issue water pressure of around 75 gallons per minute into the manhole. This water flushes out all the debris lodged in the pipe, everything from stones and bottles to grease, grime, and muck. The air vacuuming system will then draw all the displaced debris away and force it into disposal bins.

When both systems work together, clearing out sewer lines is more effective. The progressive sewer cleaning equipment in our equipment is created to serve as vacuum excavators. The equipment can bring underground cables and pipes to the surface and also function for street flushing, chemical, and water-spraying services. Sewer cleaning equipment can even be used as transfer pumps.
