PipeHunter and Red Dawg were born many years ago. The team here has been manufacturing jetting and vacuum equipment since 1986 as a family-owned company. Since our beginnings selling trailer jets to local municipalities here in South Texas our offerings have grown greatly. We make everything from small trailer jets all the way up to full size combination cleaning machines with our unique build philosophy. We want to make equipment today that customers can work on themselves, no laptop required. Dealers all over the country would agree that our customers love what we build, and look forward to more. Our parts and accessories group, Red Dawg, started 8 years ago. We learned a lot about the nozzle manufacturing game in that time and have grown to have a large dealer network supported by our vans. We believe that nozzles should be made here in the USA, not Europe.
