RIDGID KJ-2200 Water Jetter | 2,200 PSI Portable Drain Cleaner (Model 63882)

The RIDGID KJ-2200 Water Jetter (Model 63882) is a compact, gasoline-powered jetter that restores flow in 1¼″–6″ drain lines. Delivering 2,200 PSI at 2.4 GPM with selectable Pulse Action, it blasts through grease, soap, and sludge and then power-scrubs pipe walls for longer-lasting results.

Features & Benefits

• Pro cleaning power: 2,200 PSI at 2.4 GPM cuts through tough buildup to quickly restore full flow.
• Dual Pulse Action: Two levels of pulse help the hose negotiate P-traps, elbows, and multiple 90° bends with less effort.
• Portable & cart-ready: Pair with the optional H-30 Cart to roll the jetter and hose to the job; remove the unit in seconds for tight indoor setups or secure storage.
• Operator-friendly: Water thrust pulls the flexible hose down the line—you simply guide and reel for efficient one-tech operation.
• Remote foot control: The included FV-1 foot valve enables safe, hands-free control at the drain while the jetter remains outdoors.
• Built to last: Triplex pump with forged brass head resists corrosion; fewer fittings minimize leak points and downtime.
• Easy service: Quick access to oil fill, dipstick, choke, and throttle; simplified layout speeds daily checks.
• Versatile add-ons: Optional power washer package cleans cables, tools, and heavily soiled equipment.
• Reliable start-up: Updated 6.5 HP recoil-start gasoline engine with ON/OFF, choke, and throttle controls.

Detailed Description

The RIDGID KJ-2200 Water Jetter gives service techs a dependable, portable solution for everyday drain cleaning in homes, restaurants, retail, and multi-unit facilities. Its balanced pressure and flow—2,200 PSI at 2.4 GPM—are tuned to scour grease, soap, and sludge without risking damage to small- and mid-diameter pipe. As the highly flexible jet hose advances under water thrust, it opens the blockage; when you pull back, it power-scrubs the line, flushing debris and residue for a cleaner, longer-lasting finish.

Two selectable Pulse Action modes increase vibration to help the hose pass traps and tight turns. That means fewer stalls in cast iron, ABS, or PVC laterals and more completed jobs in a single visit. The optional H-30 Cart is designed for mobility across parking lots and through corridors; and because the jetter quickly detaches from the cart, you can stage the unit outdoors while operating remotely at the fixture using the included FV-1 foot valve—a safer workflow for indoor applications.

At the heart of the system is a rugged triplex pump with a forged brass head. This material choice provides corrosion resistance and long service life, while the simplified plumbing path reduces fittings and potential leak points. User-centric details—like easy access to the engine’s oil fill and dipstick—streamline daily checks so the KJ-2200 spends more time working and less time on the bench.

The key benefit is fast, thorough cleaning with simple operation. With cart-ready portability, foot-pedal safety, and pulse-enabled navigation, the RIDGID KJ-2200 Water Jetter helps teams clear drains efficiently and reduce call-backs—without relying on harsh chemicals.
