Thanks Mike. My sewer blockage was pretty stuborn but I got a spanner and took off the end spring on the nozzle so the forward jet shot straight out....bit of elbow greese and Bob's you're uncle. I had two 90 degree bends and found it turned back on itself, so I taped this tube to another, slightly stiffer and larger diameter hose to provide a bit more hose solidity and so it would not bend back on itself. This step made a huge difference for me. Overall, $48 from bunnings versus two seperate plumber quotes for $450.......agree totally that this is a great tool for the home. Thanks again.
Glad you got your problem fixed, I found this to be very useful, going to clean out my drainage piped around the shed soon, to make sure they flow freely. This can save you a fortune, especially if you already have a pressure cleaner.
I honestly think this will clear 90% of blockages most people would have. If you already have a pressure washer it's definitely worth trying out before paying out the big $$
@@GooberNuf Who busted pipes?? This won't fix a busted pipe, they need replacing, pretty easy job if it's drainage outside, just buy the parts from Bunnings.
I need to clean out a friend's telecommunications lead-in conduit so they can get internet hooked up. I'm wondering if this will fit inside the conduit and around the bends. Conduit is 20mm diameter internally with tightest bends of 100mm radius. I think I'll have to go to Bunnings with a conduit bend and see if can get through it.
Underground comms conduit is named after it's internal diameter. Comms P20 is very similar in size to electrical 25mm conduit. It's by far the most common size used for single dwelling houses. 10mm (internal) and direct burried 😬 are also common in some older/rural areas.
I am not sure such an adapter exists, most pressure cleaner manufacturers have their own attachments. I don't think many interchange as they all use their own fittings.
G’day I know this is a year old but other people may read it If you have a different machine you can buy a few different adapters from EBay to run the gerni hose on different machines! If you just put in gerni adapter for pressure washer they come up cheers Ps these drain cleaner hose really works perfect
Good review and I have had one for a few years now - my question is how might I extend the length? I need about 30m minimum and called Gerni who told me they don't have an extension for the drain cleaner hose. All it needs is an extension hose with the appropriate male + female ends (but different from the standard extension that connects the other side of the wand handle). Any ideas?
@@everyhandletaken nothing available to extend the Gerni hose as it uses proprietary connectors so I went to a couple of hose guys who laughed at the Gerni hose as it is such poor quality and quoted me like AUD$400 for a 30m hose with fittings! - all in all not a good outcome so nothing achieved.
@@johnmcmurray191 $400?! Wow.. that is crazy. I guess that is why the Gerni 15m jet hose is only $45 then. I noticed there is a 7m extension hose at Bunnings, which is a bit short for your purpose though & not sure about the fitting type or whether you can join multiple together.
Killa video...I have a Gerni 1602 , pressure is all good but the soap/dispenser cap keeps blowing off when I fill it with a cleaner? Any idea? Is it just blocked and I will have to pull it apart? Peace ✌️
@@MikesManCave it turned out to be a common fault in that series of Gerni's, Detergent bottle would only work on low pressure, as soon as you went to high on the nozzle the cap would blow. Peace
It probably could be fixed, some type of blockage that happens soon after purchase, i rang Gerni and they said it was a fault, they said to buy the spray bottle from Bunnings that fits on the end of the wand..They oviously dont know much at Gerni, as the 1602 has the older wand type that doesnt use the G connect system.. was a waste of time. Peace

Sounds good Mike and always worth a try before calling a plumber and paying a fortune

Grabbed one of these at the weekend. Don't have a blockage, but for the price, it's worth having just in case.
I have used it twice now and it works great, want to clean out some drains near my shed as well soon.
Great! Thanks for sharing. A very useful attachment!
You're welcome, hope it helps.
Plan on picking one up tomorrow to hopefully unblock my main drain. Had nothing but issues with it since moving in.
Let me know how it goes. Certainly cheaper than calling a plumber and you hav hit for next time.
@@MikesManCave it's a plumbers issue now/again. Turns out he cracked and busted more pipes than he originally thought.

Just found you from live it like Lisa.....I will certainly follow you!!!
Thanks for the comment and thanks for subscribing. 👍
Most jet washer companies now offer these drain cleaning hoses as an option, which is great.😃
Yep, good way to save some money.
Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend..

I think you will be pushing it, 20mm is very small. Most lead ins are way bigger than that. Let me know how you go.

Nice work matey. Top job.

Hi. I have an Ozito 2030psi pressure washer, But the above Gerni 15M Drain and Tuber cleaner extension doesn't fit. What sort of adaptor should I use?
I am not sure such an adapter exists, most pressure cleaner manufacturers have their own attachments. I don't think many interchange as they all use their own fittings.

NO idea. I have never seen an extension for that part.
Did you figure something out?
Sounds like you need to speak to a hose fitter & see what then can offer there

HI mate is the fitting replaceable, wanting one for my bosch pressure washer
Don't think so, just buy the Bosch one, surly they would make one as well.

Probably something building up pressure, give it a good clean out.

what psi washer do you use??
PSI depends what unit you have. I have the 5000 that is claimed to have 1885psi. If you have a different unit you will have different power.
Would this fit onto old gerni classic 125.5?
Not sure, if it has the same fittings it will fit.
yup it does and works amazing
