Sewer Jetter - 50 FT JetSnake Drain Cleaner for Your Gas Pressure Washer

I have to admit, I was very skeptical that this thing would work, but based on all the great reviews, I decided to try it. I purchased a 2900psi 2.5gpm Ryobi pressure washer, both items arrived the same day, very quickly.About 15 minutes to assemble the washer, add oil and gas, connect the water supply hose and fired it up, started on first pull and worked perfectly. So here we go, opened the Sewer Jetter package and read the instructions, uncoiled the Jetter hose, laid it out as described and connected it to the washer wand.It seems to be very well made and high quality hose.I slipped about 3-4' of it into the sewer clean out for the kitchen sink and pulled the trigger...very gently feed it into the pipe and it just kind of took off till it got to the first 90 degree elbow, working slightly back and forth a few times it passed the elbow and continued feeding into the pipe. About 30' in I hit the first clog, took about 30 seconds to blast it out of the way and start feeding again. It hit a couple more areas where there was resistance but each time I just worked it back and forth a few times and it cleared it out.After feeding the entire 50' into the pipe I held the trigger and pulled the Jetter all the back out, leaving only a few feet of it in the pipe, feed it all the way back in and repeated this several times.My sink is draining better than it ever has since purchasing the house.Hopefully I don't have to use this thing very often but because it's so easy to use I know I won't hesitate to use it at the slightest hint of problem.

I originally bought this product to clean out the foundation drains around my house. They were full to the top with thick, wet mud, and roto rooter told my wife (she owned the house prior to us getting married) that they would charge her several thousand dollars to clear the drains. I spent several days with this jetter clearing out part of the drain system, but it was slow and painful, so I ended up renting a small excavator from Art's and dug up the yard and replaced the old clay pipes with 4" PVC. This was about 2 years ago. Fast forward to this year. I have used the jetter multiple times to clear out the new drains I installed, and it works great. I could probably achieve the same result by stuffing a garden hose with a nozzle on it into the pipes, since they are now full of small debris and not thick mud, but I still felt like the purchase was worthwhile.Now fast forward to yesterday. My wife is in the laundry room in the basement (unfinished) and yells up to me that there is a water leak. It wasn't raining outside, and since I replaced the foundation drains, water hasn't come in during even the heaviest of rains. I go down and find that the sewer is backing up through one of the drains near the water heater. There is a clog in the sewer! My wife has for years, despite my protests, flushed everything you can think of down the toilet that shouldn't be going down the toilet. Well it finally bit us. I dragged out the pressure washer and the sewer jetter, and went to work. It took about an hour, but it was able to clear the clog, and get the full 50' of hose into the lines, so we are clear all the way to the street, or pretty close at least. NOW the thing was truly worth the spend!

I was fighting a clog in a 2" shower drain that a snake could not get to. I was skeptical that this would be able to negotiate the multiple 90 degree turns in a steel pipe drain because a snake could not do it. I was surprised when I was able to get it to go through three turns, and thrilled when it removed the clog. I then tackled the 4" toilet drain (toilet was removed) which had an obstruction and was able to get it to the cleanout outside (about 20'). I has used one of the cheap Chinese jetters on this and it was not able to go very far, and a snake kept going the wrong direction. This one went through multiple turns by twisting it per the instructions. I was able to complete the whole job in 10 minutes or so (not including setup). I probably saved $500-1000 based on the last time I used a septic company, who took much longer and seemed to struggle a lot, and they only cleaned the larger 4" pipe, not the 2". I am very pleased with my purchase! The jetter appears to be well made, with clear instructions, and it works as advertised. My only complaint is it would be nice if they had a hose retainer of some sort as it easily gets tangled.

I purchased this to clear outdoor drains. I have a Ryobi that hits 3000 psi and it powered this jetter well. There is some technique involved but plenty of videos to show. It cleared out 2 very muddy lines well. One line with roots, not so much. It is too small to really dissolve the roots. I may have to try to make several passes and attempts to see if it will cut them down. Overall, very happy with the product and I would buy it again. Would love to see it a bit longer.

I've had to snake out the drain pipe that's connected to the kitchen sink, the dishwasher, the clothes washer and the utility sink a few times over the last 15 years that I've lived here. This particular pipe is the problem child since its fed by all the worst clog contributers. Its a 2" pipe to make matters worse. This water jet worked really well. I fed it through the pipe and at about 15 feet it I hit a clog. I worked the jet in and out about 6 times and it cleared the clog. I was then able to run the jet the whole 50 feet into the pipe. I ran the entire length of the pipe 4 times and the hose went in and out smooth as silk.This was less expensive and easier than renting a mechanical snake. Now that I own it I'll do annual cleanings of this particular pipe to prevent future problems.
