Jetter Nozzle Cost Calculator

Jetter Nozzle Cost Calculator: Use Your Own Job Records

Compare your current replacement and service costs with buying and maintaining an insert-equipped KEG nozzle. Enter your actual costs and intervals below. No product price, nozzle lifespan or pass-count saving is assumed.

Optional measured job times show how many crew hours could be recovered over the same workload. Time value is displayed separately from equipment costs; it is not additional cash profit or a guaranteed result.

Use an interval from your records at the job volume entered above.
Enter the current price for the nozzle you are considering.
Include inserts, other service parts and maintenance labor. Use 0 only if appropriate.
Optional: compare measured jetting time

Use comparable jobs with the same cleaning result. Enter water-on minutes for each setup; the difference can be positive, zero or negative.

Use measured time; do not assume a one-pass result.

What the calculation includes

  • Annual jobs = monthly jobs × 12.
  • Current annualized cost = event cost × 52 ÷ weeks between events. Use an event cost that includes the replacement equipment or service parts, labor and other relevant charges. The interval must reflect the workload entered. With no jobs, modeled operating costs are zero.
  • KEG year-one cost = initial purchase + maintenance cost per job × annual jobs. Include relevant service costs in your per-job estimate.
  • Cost difference = current annualized cost minus modeled KEG cost. A negative result means KEG costs more under your inputs.
  • Simple payback = initial KEG purchase divided by a positive monthly recurring-cost difference. This is an annualized estimate, not a dated cash-flow forecast. It excludes resale value and assumes your existing equipment is already owned.
  • Recurring-cost comparison assumes the KEG body stays serviceable over the modeled period. It does not assume unlimited body life. Add any expected body replacement to the maintenance estimate.
  • Time comparison = (current minutes − KEG minutes) × annual jobs ÷ 60. Labor value uses your entered crew cost and is kept separate from equipment savings. Recovered time creates value only if your operation can use it.

Use the same tax and freight basis on both sides. Financing, vehicle costs, water charges and changes in revenue are excluded. Results depend on your inputs and are not a performance promise.

Choose a nozzle you can maintain

On insert-equipped models, replace the specified inserts while the body remains serviceable. KEG lists one-year steel and five-year titanium ceramic insert warranties, subject to its published terms. See coverage.
