Industrial and Commercial Drain Cleaning and Rehabilitation Services

Industrial and Commercial Drain Cleaning and Rehabilitation Services with Advanced Equipment and Minimal Disruption Industrial and commercial drains and drainpipes become clogged and blocked due to a variety of reasons, such as wastewater, grease, collection of oils and sludge, food material and other fluids. Drainage cleaning is important to keep the facilities operational, and also prevent fines and penalties by the regulatory authorities.

Blockages caused due to long-time build up of grease, food waste, wastewater, twigs, and tree roots can no longer be simply cleaned with chemicals as these can only lightly impact blockages. Furthermore, due to their high concentrations, chemical drain cleaners can corrode or damage the plumbing connected to the drains when used on a regular basis. Additionally, chemical cleaners can be hazardous to the environment because toxic chemicals are flushed through the drainage system, where they can seep into the ground and contaminate groundwater.

Specialised machines for drainage cleaning Aussie Hydro-Vac Services uses heavy-duty industrial drain cleaning machines and equipment that use high-pressured flow of water to scour the interior surfaces of drains and plumbing pipes. For drainage cleaning, a trained operator will insert a hose that is connected to a water tank into the clogged pipe. The hose used for commercial drain cleaning is specially designed to withstand high pressure water. The machines used for industrial drain cleaning may pressurise water up to 5,000 psi or more and deliver as much as 20 gallons of water per minute. The machine provides an effective solution for commercial drain cleaning and industrial drain cleaning. Drain jetting can be used to break up tree roots. It is also effective for drainage cleaning involving the removal of mineral build up, grease, and other debris.

Pulse jetters and CCTV surveys Pulse jetters may be used with industrial drain cleaning and commercial drain cleaning units that are fitted with a drain cleaning hose and nozzle. Their pumps have special valves that allow the operator to disable one pump cylinder. This creates a pressure pulse that breaks up blockages. Many drainage cleaning operations that necessitate going around corners and piercing pipes require the use of specialised nozzles. Pulse jetters are extremely useful in preventive drain maintenance because they help to keep drainage systems running efficiently without the risks associated with chemical drain cleaners. Aussie Hydro-Vac Services performs CCTV surveys to accurately assess the condition of drains and sewers, as well as to locate any potential defects.

Drain snakes and power rodding However, for certain drain cleaning conditions, such as for commercial drain cleaning in freezing cold conditions, drain snakes can be used. This consists of a long spring cable with corkscrew on the end which is attached to a motor. A cable is inserted into the clogged pipe with the help of a motor. The corkscrew at the end snags any blockage in the pipe and can be pulled out by the operator performing the industrial drain cleaning.

Power rodding is another common drain cleaning system that uses a flexible metal cable that threads into drain systems, and also around bends and joints. The system has a cleaning head with sharp teeth which is sized to the diameter of the pipe to be treated for drainage cleaning. An electric motor rotates the cable that turns the cleaning head at high speed. This action shears off any protrusions and shaves away years of sludge build up. The action obliterates the obstruction that is blocking the pipe into small fragments that is easily flushed away by the operator undertaking the commercial drain cleaning.

Flexible shafts for drainage cleaning operations In industrial drain cleaning operations involving tight and twisted environments, flexible shafts are used. Flexible shafts, which are smaller, lighter, and more flexible, allow the camera to be used in commercial drain cleaning and are also easily cleaned.

Flexible shafts are used in drainage cleaning environments where the clogged pipe has many bends or is difficult to navigate due to their low weight and size. The shafts are protected by a casing, which makes clean up after drainage cleaning much easier.

Drain rehabilitation services Aussie Hydro-Vac Services also offers drain rehabilitation services for industries, businesses, and households, and also for poor connections in a drainage system, as well as collapsing sewers. The company’s full relining services involve inserting a new pipe within the existing one, without having to dig any holes or trenches. Fractured and poorly laid pipes can be repaired using part relining, without the need for any digging.
