What’s sewer jetting?

Sewer Jetting is a method of cleaning out sewers and drain lines by using high pressure water streams through specialized jetting nozzles to dislodge and clear obstructions as well as perform regular maintenance to prevent sewage backups. Whether the location is residential or a larger municipality, sewer jetting is vital to keeping storm drains and sewer lines in peak condition, helping prevent damage and mitigate further deterioration of the sewers.

What’s FOG?

FOG stands for Fats, Oils and Grease, all of which can severely damage your sanitary sewer system. Animal and vegetable fats, as well as oils used to cook and prepare foods contribute to FOG. When poured down kitchen drains FOG accumulates inside sewer pipes. As the FOG builds up, it restricts the flow in the pipe and can cause untreated wastewater to back up into homes and businesses, resulting in high costs for cleanup and restoration. FOG discharged into septic systems and drain fields can cause malfunctions, resulting in more frequent tank pump-outs and other expenses.

FOG comes from

  • Bacon Gtrease
  • Butter and Margarine
  • Cooking Oil
