THE SHORT ANSWER
Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to clean buildup from drain and sewer piping. A mechanical snake can remove or open a blockage, while jetting may be more effective for some grease or recurring sludge problems. Jetting is not appropriate for every pipe, especially one that is badly damaged or fragile. An inspection should determine the safest cleaning method, and service availability should be confirmed.
