Jetfoam™ sewer jet degreaser liquefies sewer grease and keeps it in suspension
Potentially dangerous problems including backups, sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs), and foul-smelling gases when fats, oils, and grease (FOG) solidify and accumulate in wastewater collection systems.
Normal sewer jetting operations frequently require multiple passes through the line. Jetfoam™ emulsifies sewer grease and keeps it in suspension -- allowing you to get superior cleaning results in a single pass.
Jetfoam™ is a degreaser additive that makes the sewer jetting cleaning process more efficient and effective. Jetfoam™ mixes with the sewer jet’s water and when this combination is propelled through the sewer line at high pressure, Jetfoam™ allows for better removal of debris, grease, sludge, and other build-ups from the pipe surfaces.
Jetfoam™ can be added to sewer jetting trucks as well as trailer-mounted and portable jetters.
Jetfoam™ cleans by using the following principles:
• Mixing action
• Earth-friendly emulsification
• Prevents grease re-coagulation
Jetfoam™ is now available with grape, lavender, orange or lemon scent at no extra charge! The fragrance helps with hose and equipment odors.

Using Jetfoam™
-
Always follow label directions.
Use proper protection.
Jetfoam™ should not be used in temperatures below 40° F.
Proper mixing is very important. For best mixing results, use the jet’s recirculator system for 10-15 minutes or:
-
Fill half the tank with water.
-
Add Jetfoam™ (mix 5 gallons of Jetfoam™ for every 500 gallons of water in the jet’s tank).
-
Complete filling the tank.
Each 5 gallon pail of Jetfoam™ (or 500 gallons of Jetfoam™ solution) will treat approximately 500 feet of line up to 10 inches in diameter.
Sewer Line Cleaning
-
Direct solution up sewer line at high pressure and half volume between
-
When the solution reaches the second manhole, shut down equipment and allow approximately 10 minutes for the product to penetrate and lift grease. If the grease accumulation is old and hard, wait an additional 5-10 minutes to allow further penetration.
-
Spray back to the original manhole at high pressure and volume.
-
One pass through sewer lines is usually all that is required.
-
Flush the line with clean water to remove remaining debris.
Manholes, Wet Wells and Lift Stations
-
Using the jet truck, spray a direct stream of the Jetfoam™ solution onto the grease for 10 minutes.
-
After stopping the spraying, wait 10 minutes to allow penetration.
-
Blast the grease with high volume and high pressure regular water.
Avoid direct skin and eye contact. In the event of direct skin or eye contact, flush the affected area with water. If irritation persists, contact a physician.
