Slice Through Grease, Sludge, Sand, Ice & More

Popular, powerful Jet-Set® electric, gas, and trailer water jets from General Pipe Cleaners slice through grease, sludge, sand, ice, and other “soft” stoppages that many cable drain cleaners can’t clear!

Water jets unleash high-pressure water streams that pulverize clogs – and flush them away. Nozzle thrust drives the hose down lines – and gives wall-to-wall pipe cleaning action.

General’s rugged, reliable water jets are excellent for blockages in restaurants, hotels, hospitals, factories, schools, sports arenas, care facilities, shopping centers, waste treatment plants, septic systems, and more.

Portable Electric Jets 

Compact and economical, they’re superb for clearing smaller and inside 1-1/2” to 4” lines – like sinks and laundry drains. Hand-carry 23-lb JM-1000 Mini-Jet™ right to problems in its rugged metal diamond plate case. Or wheel the trim JM-1450 right to troubles. Its telescoping handle and detachable hose reel make maneuvering easy. And both pack 1500 psi of cleaning power.

Maneuverable Gas Jets 

General’s muscular machines punch through stubborn stoppages in longer and outside 4” to 8” lines. All sport reliable engines, 3000 psi punch, puncture-proof tires, and robust, tubular chassis. On-demand Vibra-pulse® technology helps propel hoses down long runs and around tight bends.

Models range from light, economical JM-2900 through precisely balanced JM-3000 with electric start and generous 300 ft. capacity hose reel. The JM-3080 tops the line with a 12 gal buffer tank and 8 gpm flow rate – the industry’s highest without requiring a trailer.

Powerful Trailer Jet 

General’s brawny JM-2512 Typhoon® delivers 12 gpm at 2500 psi to blast clogs from 4” to 12” lines up to 400 ft. long. A 200 gal holding tank aids operations in remote areas with limited water. Two hose reels offer plenty of reach. And standard equipment includes rugged radial tires, leaf-spring suspension, electric brakes, fold-down stabilizer jacks, and more.

There’s a Jet-Set jetter for every application. For details of models and accessories, visit www.drainbrain.com/jets. Or contact General’s Drain Brains® at 800-245-6200 or 412-771-6300.

Easier, More Economical Way to Locate Leakage The Gen-Ear LE® from General Pipe Cleaners provides a simple, more economical water leak locator with stronger sound amplification than competitive systems offer.

Easier, More Economical Way to Locate Leakage

The Gen-Ear LE® from General Pipe Cleaners provides a simple, more economical water leak locator with stronger sound amplification than competitive systems offer.

Gen-Ear LE can pinpoint water leaks in residential and commercial water lines – including problems in walls and under concrete slabs, swimming pools, and hot tubs.

General’s compact amplifier fits easily in the palm of your hand – providing noise-free amplification with built-in, preset audio filters to eliminate settings guesswork.

High performance headphones with noise cancellation also block interference from ambient noise. And when released, an amplifier safety button mutes sudden loud noises.

Gen-Ear LE’s advanced acoustic ground sensor accurately detects the gurgling or hammering of water escaping from cracked pipes under concrete, asphalt, or tile. Probe rods pinpoint problems beneath soft surfaces like grass or carpet. And the magnetic attachment locates above ground pipe or hydrant leaks.

For especially hard-to-find leaks, the Sound Amplification Module adds air to the line, increasing water pressure and amplifying leak sounds to aid precise problem location.

Two AA batteries power Gen-Ear LE for 20 or more hours. To extend battery life, the system automatically shuts down when headphones are removed. And the power light blinks to indicate low batteries.

Made In America For More Than 50 Years

Don’t be fooled by imitations! More than 50 years of technical advancements made rugged, all-metal Kinetic Water Ram® from General Pipe Cleaners the choice for quickly clearing clogged lines with the power of compressed air.

Just pump it up, insert into a drain – and snap the trigger. It’s that fast.

Environmentally friendly, the compact, portable tool is cleaner than snakes – and safer than chemicals. It requires no electrical power or CO2 gas. And it’s great for plumbing, drain cleaning, maintenance, and rental applications.

Lightweight and economical, futuristic Kinetic Water Ram generates a shock wave that instantly pulverizes stoppages in 1-1/4” to 4” lines – yet won’t harm pipes.

The shock wave bypasses vents and bends to batter clogs. And the built-in pump and pressure gauge lets operators choose the right amount of force for each job.

An optional toilet attachment screws onto the front of Kinetic Water Ram, turning it into a powerful plunger. The specially designed accessory precisely positions in bowls for a tight seal, hitting blockages with maximum impact – and no splash back.

General’s sleek, plated Kinetic Water Ram comes in a sturdy carrying case with molded compartments for the tool and accessories. A Schraeder valve for use with an external air compressor when clearing difficult blockages is also provided.
