Grease traps are a lifeline in commercial kitchens, but over time, they can become clogged with fats, oils, and food debris. When that happens, drains slow down, odors spread, and the risk of shutdowns rises. Regular cleaning helps, but stubborn buildup calls for a stronger solution. That’s where hydro jetting in Las Vegas, NV makes the difference, blasting grease away with precision and restoring smooth flow throughout your system. For a busy restaurant or food service business, it can mean the difference between another hectic dinner rush and an unexpected halt in operations.
How High-Pressure Water Keeps Grease Traps Clear
Standard cleaning methods often scrape the surface, but hydro jetting services use pressurized water streams strong enough to cut through dense grease layers. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, fats, oils, and grease are among the leading causes of blockages in commercial sewers. High-pressure jets not only clear blockages but also scrub the pipe walls, reducing the chance of recurring clogs. This makes hydro jetting a cost-effective and long-term solution for kitchens that see heavy daily use.
Tackling the Grease Layer Where Other Methods Fail
Unlike snaking or chemical cleaners, pipe jetting breaks down buildup and flushes it away completely. The process is powerful enough to reach bends and corners in the system where grease tends to collect. For restaurants, cafeterias, and catering facilities, this thorough cleaning prevents backups during peak hours. Clean pipes mean fewer service interruptions and a healthier work environment for your staff and customers.
Why Sewer Jetting is a Game Changer for Food Service
Grease traps aren’t the only part of the system affected by buildup. Food particles and residue can settle deeper in the lines. Sewer jetting uses focused streams of water that scour the entire line, moving debris out and restoring flow to the city connection. This reduces the risk of major blockages that could trigger expensive repairs or even city fines for non-compliance with grease disposal regulations. Keeping your system clear helps keep your operation compliant and ready to serve.
Taking Back Your Pipes from Root Intrusions
Grease isn’t always the only culprit. Tree roots can infiltrate sewer lines, especially in older parts of Las Vegas. Hydro jetting roots from the lines cuts away the intrusion and flushes it out, giving the pipe back its full capacity. For commercial kitchens relying on heavy water usage throughout the day, root-free lines are essential for keeping operations on track without sudden slowdowns.
Your Hydro Jetting Questions Answered
How often should I schedule hydro jetting for my grease trap?
Most commercial kitchens benefit from professional hydro jetting every 6 to 12 months, depending on the volume of cooking and grease production.
Is hydro jetting safe for all types of pipes?
When performed by trained professionals, hydro jetting is safe for most commercial pipes, including PVC, cast iron, and clay.
Can hydro jetting replace regular grease trap maintenance?
No. Hydro jetting is a powerful supplement, but traps should still be emptied and maintained regularly to comply with local health codes.
What’s the downtime during service?
Most hydro jetting jobs can be completed within a few hours, minimizing disruptions to your business operations.

I had the cartridge in my shower go bad and couldn't shut off my water. I called Walter at 6:00 am. He told me to shut off the water main and waited for him to get to my house and he fixed it in a matter of minutes, about 10-15 to be exact. I highly recommend them for any plumbing issues one might have.

We received a call from one of our tenants at a commercial retail center that all their toilets and sinks were backing up. We manage the property from out of town and rarely have plumbing issues, but now needed a plumber in a hurry. The tenant runs a childcare center and small children need access to bathrooms! After calling several companies who were too busy, one of them recommended Walter at Discount Drain. Lucky for us! Walter answered his phone immediately. He was friendly and committed to helping us out. He arrived at the property at the promised time and resolved our issue, keeping our tenants happy. His invoice arrived overnight with great detail and the price was reasonable. We won't hesitate to call upon Walter again.
