Line jetting, also known as hydro jetting or water jetting, is a highly effective method used to clean and clear pipelines, sewer lines, and drainage systems using high-pressure water streams. This technique removes debris, grease buildup, sludge, roots, and other obstructions without damaging the pipe infrastructure.
At Adler Hydro Vac, line jetting is a core service used to maintain, restore, and optimize underground utility systems safely and efficiently.
Line jetting uses specialized equipment that pumps water at extremely high pressures—often ranging from 2,000 to 40,000 PSI—through a hose fitted with a precision nozzle.
The process works by:
This method not only clears clogs but also thoroughly cleans the inner walls of pipes, restoring them close to their original condition.
Line jetting is commonly used across residential, commercial, and industrial applications, including:
Because it is non-invasive and chemical-free, it’s considered one of the most environmentally friendly pipe cleaning methods available.

3. Safe for Pipes. When performed by professionals like Adler Hydro Vac, it is safe for most pipe materials, including PVC, cast iron, and steel.
4. Eco-Friendly Solution. Line jetting uses only water—no harsh chemicals, making it safe for the environment.
