Kleen Rite sells several different drain cleaning nozzles. I have one I use from time to time

In an emergency I made a jetter nozzle by drilling holes in a brass cap and screwing it onto the end of an old bay hose and using the bay pressure to clean the line. Worked fine and cost nothing.

I used something like this last year:

General Pump YDRNT3 Drain Nozzle | Pressure Washer Nozzles | Kleen-Rite

Effectively unclog drains using the General Pump YDRNT3 #6, 3/8" stainless steel high pressure nozzle!

Has anyone found a rotating style of the jetter nozzle that stayed intact even after a few uses??? I had high hopes for the rotating style but was disappointed when they did not last. I am pretty sure the rotating nozzles are more effective than the fixed style of nozzles ... if we can find one that is durable enough.

From my research with the sewer jetter the more you spend on the nozzle the better the quality. Going to go look at some nozzles tomorrow at a manufacturer tomorrow.

I bought a "Clog Hog" jetter some time ago. Basically a fitting on the end of a long hose, with three holes spraying backward and one forward. It has cleaned all the lines I have used it on. I hook it to my pressure washer.
