A: No. Unlike high-pressure jetting, suction exerts no lateral force on pipe walls.

(commonly referred to as hydro-vacuuming , septic suction , or wet/dry vacuum drain cleaning ) is a non-invasive, high-powered vacuum process used to remove liquid waste, sludge, debris, and blockages from drainage systems. Unlike traditional snaking or hydro-jetting, which pushes or breaks clogs, suction physically extracts the obstructing material out of the pipe.

Drain suction service involves using specialized equipment to create a vacuum or suction force that removes blockages and debris from drains and pipes. The most common techniques used in drain suction service are:
