What Is the Difference Between Hydro Flushing and Line Jetting?
Line jetting and hydro flushing are interchangeable terms for many. However, line jetting is for sewer lines 3″ in diameter or smaller. Hydro flushing is for 4″ lines or bigger. Careful attention is needed, along with the proper equipment, to see optimal results from this sewer line clearing process.
Grease Masters is equipped to handle both. We match the right method and pressure levels to the pipe size and type of blockage, protecting your plumbing while delivering a thorough clean.
How We Clear Your Sewer Lines
Grease Masters uses up-to-date high-pressure jetting equipment with high-strength, flexible hoses designed to reach pipe interiors and blast away grease, sludge, and debris without removing surface metal or damaging your lines.
At high pressure and controlled volume, water delivers its cleaning energy into even the most difficult-to-reach areas of your sewer system. In many cases, hydro flushing or line jetting is the only solution that fully restores flow.
Our process:
- Initial assessment of line size, blockage type, and access points
- Selection of the appropriate nozzle and pressure setting for your pipe diameter
- High-pressure jetting from the access point through the line
- Post-service inspection to confirm full clearance
For complex blockages or recurring issues, we recommend pairing line jetting with a sewer camera inspection so you can see exactly what was cleared and identify any structural concerns.
Annual Hydro Flushing & Line Jetting Program
Grease Masters recommends an annual line jetting and hydro flushing program as a complement to a scheduled preventative maintenance plan. This program should include regularly scheduled grease trap cleanings for all food service establishments.
Maintaining a scheduled maintenance program helps alleviate emergency calls, prevents sewer backups, and avoids the costly expenses associated with these repairs, adding bottom-line savings to your operation.
Restaurants, commercial kitchens, and multi-unit food service operations are especially prone to grease and debris accumulation in sewer lines. Annual jetting combined with routine grease trap service is the most cost-effective way to stay ahead of blockages and health code concerns.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should commercial sewer lines be hydro flushed?
For most food service businesses, annual hydro flushing is the standard recommendation. High-volume kitchens or facilities with a history of blockages may benefit from service every 6 months. Grease Masters can help you determine the right schedule based on your operation.
How is hydro flushing different from sewer cabling?
Sewer cabling (also called snaking) uses a rotating auger to break through a blockage. Hydro flushing uses high-pressure water to flush out grease, sludge, and debris from the full pipe interior. Jetting is generally more thorough and is better suited for grease-heavy commercial drain lines. For lines with hard obstructions, cabling may be used first.
Will hydro jetting damage my pipes?
When performed correctly, hydro jetting is safe for most commercial pipe materials. Grease Masters adjusts water pressure based on your pipe diameter and material. We do not use excessive pressure on older or fragile lines, and we can recommend a camera inspection first if there is any concern about pipe condition.
