West BaySewer Jetter Kit 100 FT for Pressure Washer, 5800PSI Drain Cleaner Hose 1/4 Inch NPT Corner Rotating and Button Nose Sewer Jetting Nozzle Spanner Watertight Tape Pearl Corsage Pin

I recently found that my septic drain field wasn't draining and if I hadn't been out doing my biannual septic maintenance, by the next day we would have had sewage in the house. I quickly called a septic company and had the tank pumped the same day (hadn't pumped it in almost 10 years). Told me that an attempt to clear the drain field would cost $2500 - $3500. To clear it, not replace it. I didn't know about the distribution box, septic guy told me about it, so I quickly dug it up and got it open. Water was almost over the top of the inlet pipe.Ordered a bunch of chemicals (and got some from my local big box store) but also ordered this. Used it today and feel very confident that once my tank fills back up, it's going to drain properly. I have two pipes (corrugated) running from the distribution box to the drain field.There are 3 spray heads in the kit. A "bottle nose", a "mushroom head" and a spinning one. Directions are mostly pictures, for the wording, English is clearly not their native language so it wasn't clear to me the difference between the bottle head and the mushroom head. I think the difference is the bottle head is a little more focused spray while the mushroom head is a little less. I started with the bottle head, then moved to the mushroom head, then the spinning head for each pipe. The hose does tangle up and kink easy. It's a high pressure hose, just like your PW hose, guess it's how they work. I stretched it out across my property and let it relax, that helped but you definitely have to watch it, it will wrap it self around itself quickly.On the first pipe, I got about 17' and it hit a clog (I wrapped some of the teflon tape around the hose where it stopped, then pulled it out and walked it off to measure). Worked it and worked it and finally got past it, then it stops around 36' (I think this is the length of the pipes). On the second pipe, I got about 5' and it stopped. I couldn't get past it until I switched to the mushroom head and finally got past it and also got to 36' before it stopped. Water definitely seems to be flowing better now. We cut down on our water usage big time to save time before the tank filled back up, so I could get this done as well as get chemicals in but from the water I put in it from this tool and also a hose, it definitely is draining much better.If you have someone to help, it's much easier and you can use the attachment to your pressure washer gun. My PW is 3100 psi btw. You can do it yourself, one hand feeding the hose into the pipe while the other pulls the trigger but MUCH easier with a second person. You don't have to use the gun, there's an attachment so you can connect the hose directly to your PW but being that I was interchanging the heads, it was much easier to have my helper (wife) let go of the trigger while I changed the head. Otherwise you'll have to shut off your PW and the water, change the head, then start everything back up.I ran each head through each pipe at least twice and ended up shoveling and hand pulling a lot of sediment back out of the distribution box (good set of cleaning gloves is recommended). The heads literally pull the hose through the pipes. I have no idea of the actual layout of the pipes but they must have a minimum of a 45 degree bend, if not more, in order to leave the distribution box and go out to the drain field. Besides hitting the clogged areas, there was no problem getting the hose in there, like I said, it pulls itself through it.I had been putting in copper sulphate once to twice a year, originally just flushing it down the toilet like the instructions explain but later, after learning that's basically just throwing it away due to dilution, using a pvc pipe to angle into the pipe that feeds into the distribution box and pouring it into the pipe and chasing it with a water hose. The septic guy said I should be doing that monthly! Geez. He also pointed out some plants, I think they're called Lacy Tree Philodendron, that I had all around the septic system that the original owner had planted and said they were the worst thing for septic systems. Can't believe I never thought of it because these things are basically root systems with leaves! The next day I cut them out with my chain saw and hatchet.I ordered a 50lb bag of copper sulphate powder from Wally World and put a bunch into each pipe, via the distrubtion box, and chased it with the water hose. Once my other chemicals get here (concentrated bacteria really), I'll do the same thing. I'm also going to try and find a solution to where I can much more easily access the distribution box, vs having to dig it up everytime. Long story short, ordering this system is a whole lot cheaper than paying someone else and even if I could only use it once (which I can clearly use it multiple times), it would be worth it.

I had a clog in my sink drain that I simply could not get rid of. I took apart the pipes and cleaned out the trap. Still no success. I snaked it with 100 foot pipe snake and cleared it for about two hours, but it clogged right back up. Thought about calling a plumber but decided to give this a shot and boy was that a good decision. I bought the 150 foot Jetter and hooked it up to my little 1800 psi electric pressure washer thinking it might not have enough power, but it sure did. I found a clean out under the house and put the Jetter in. It walked itself through and while pulling back, I managed to fill up a whole Walmart shopping bag with trash that was clogging it everything from chicken to clumps of Greece and more. Just make sure you don’t have any kinks in the line so that you can get the most pressure. I decided to lay it out straight and then walked back with it to where I was gonna be working so that there would be no kinks. Trust me you will not regret this purchase. After using it try to find something to wrap it around so that it doesn’t tangled up on you for the next use thankfully, I had an old hose reel laying around

Works pretty good but hose is prone to kinking.

Our main line was clogged and a plumber came in and wanted several hundred dollars to jet wash our main drain. He showed me what he was going to use and I went looking for one myself since I have a power washer. I ended up getting this and after him sneaking my drain I went through and Jet washed my own drain. This worked amazingly well and now I don't ever have to pay a plumber again. I loved all the attachments and it fit perfectly on my power washer that I got from Harbor freight.

Bought the 100ft since I run the 3200psi gas pressure washer outside. This jetter is well worth the money. Floor drain in the laundry room was very slow and backing up all the time. I ran this through, and it practically pulled itself through the pipe. Cleared 40+ft in a couple mins. Absolutely recommend.

I gave it 3 stars but in the interest of fairness I was trying to unblock a 4" dry well line that was probably unrescueable to begin with. I bought this as a last resort before facing a large repair bill for my septic system. Because it has no on/off valve I initially connected to my pressure washer's wand thinking I could easily trigger the flow. That worked briefly then promptly blew out my pressure washers hose. Thank goodness for Amazon. The head also clog and the pins provided offered some help but it took me about 15 mins to get the obstruction out of the head. I then connected it directly to my PW and it seemed to provide a pressurized stream on the business end of the hose. By the way, the hose easily kinked especially in the hot sun. I would conclude that this might be a good resource for smaller pipes and smaller problems. It was ineffective for my purposes. This was a one-time Hail Mary for me so I doubt I will ever use it again.

I installed subsurface drainage in my backyard while simultaneously getting a pool and decking installed. My drains ended up covered in mud from all the ground work. After a hard rain I discovered my subsurface drainage had become full of mud and would not drain. I attempted to use a garden hose with a straight nozzle to remove the dirt which helped a little but I was not able to feed the hose all the way down the pipe. After 6 hours of this and still not clearing the pipe I purchased this jetting system. Yesterday evening I took my pressure washer out at 7:00pm, by 8:45 I had cleaned all 200ft of my sub Q drainage and had clear water coming out of the end after a 10 minute post jetting rinse. I definitely recommend this product. I did follow others recommendation to lay the hose out flat and untwist it before starting the job. I encountered no kinks and the hose fed itself with the nozzle I used. I used a Velcro strap to hold my pressure washer nozzle trigger so I could use two hands to work the hose which wasn’t necessary but I would definitely recommend.
