WaterWork Plumbing: hydrojetting for Ypsilanti’s historic homes
Ypsilanti is one of the oldest cities in the area, incorporated in 1858 and home to Eastern Michigan University. Its historic districts along the Huron River are full of late-1800s and early-1900s homes, and roughly a third of the city’s houses were built before 1940, which puts them on some of the oldest sewer laterals around. More about the city is at the City of Ypsilanti.
Water and sewer here run through YCUA, which operates a fats, oils, and grease program specifically to cut the sewer overflows and backups that grease causes. In a city with this much old pipe and a large student-rental population, grease and roots are the two things that clog a line.
A standard drain snake punches through a clog but leaves the grease and roots coating the pipe walls, so it comes back. WaterWork’s hydrojetting cuts the roots and scours the grease off the walls, restoring the line to close to its original diameter. Because these are old laterals, we camera the line first and set our pressure to match what the pipe can safely take.
