St. Louis Commercial Drain Cleaning You Can Count On
There are two, telltale signs of a commercial drain problem: a foul odor and/or backed-up sinks or toilets. Whether your particular issues are caused by a simple build-up of kitchen grease or one too many customers has flushed something they shouldn’t, commercial drain cleaning requires the right tools and a significant amount of patience.
Commercial drains in hospitals, restaurants, hotels, shopping centers, office buildings, and grocery stores across the St. Louis region are subject to high volume and heavy-duty use, making them much more susceptible to clogs than residential systems. You can try all the traditional methods of drain cleaning—plunging, cleaning P-traps, using a plumbing auger—but in a commercial environment, your most effective option is water jetting. Using this method, debris, build-up (scale, silt, mineral deposits, grease, sludge), and even tree roots are cut up and pushed through the drain using high-pressure streams of water. The result isn’t just restored flow, although that’s a definite plus). You’ll actually end up with squeaky clean pipes that are much less likely to clog in the future.
Did You Know: The most efficient commercial drain cleaning method is prevention. Depending on the type of business you have, your drains may benefit from semi-annual, quarterly, or even monthly cleanings. By investing in preventive maintenance, you’ll decrease the chances of a plumbing emergency interrupting your business day or inconveniencing your employees and customers.
