Industrial sewer jetting equipment has become essential in contemporary wastewater management systems and provides a means by which municipalities, plumbing contractors, and facilities can remove stubborn clogging materials that conventional methods such as rodding or snaking wouldn’t be able to remove from drainage pipes. This buyer’s guide covers everything there is to know about how to evaluate an appropriate sewer jetting system to purchase—whether you are going to be cleaning residential laterals or maintaining large municipal sewer mains—in preparation to start investing in your sewerjetting equipment within the next few years as we move into 2026. Sewer jetting apparatus uses jets of water at high pressures (usually between 1500 and 4000+ psi) to breakdown: – Windrowed grease deposits on pipe walls – Scale buildups inside of the pipes – Tree roots inside of the pipes – Debris inside of the pipes. Once debris has been broken loose, it is simultaneously flushed through to a point outside of the pipe system. When evaluating the best sewer jetter for your operation, you must examine two key specifications: pressure (psi) and flow rate (gpm, or gallons per minute). A higher psi will allow you to cut through hardened deposits and root intrusions, but you need a minimum level of gpm to adequately remove debris from long runs of piping. Most industrial type sewer jetting equipment balances both the psi and gpm with each other, since one element does not perform its intended application without the other.
