One of the greatest innovations in the modern plumbing arsenal is the video inspection of drains and sewer lines. Video inspection of sewer lines allows plumbers to view the condition of your sewer lines first hand. The operator uses a flexible fibre optic cable with a high resolution optic cable mounted on its tip. He feeds this through your drain pipe, and records the images on a video screen. Both you and the plumber can watch as the plumber looks for roots growing into your pipe, debris build-up, or a break, leak, deterioration or crack in the sewer line. In this article we present 6 of the many indications for video inspection.
1) When most people associate video camera drain inspection with slow emptying drains, or recurrent clogs that have led to repeated visits from the plumber. Traditional plumbing troubleshooting can often locate and treat the source of the blockage if it is within or close to the house. However, video inspection can exactly pinpoint the trouble spot. And video inspection is cost effective when compared to the cost of repeat plumber visits to treat recurring drain problem. While this indication for camera video inspection is number one on our list, read about some other times when you can make good use of a video drain inspection.
2) If you’re just completing a bathroom or home remodeling project, especially if you live in an old home, you should get a video drain inspection. Many homeowners would have saved thousands of dollars had they discovered a drain problem while in the midst of remodeling, instead of shelling out lots of money later on to rip apart parts of the remodeled house to fix a drain problem.
3) Video drain inspection can let you know for sure if the drainage system of an old house you are planning to purchase is in solid shape or whether it is likely to cause you a costly repair bill in the not to distant future.
4) It’s also prudent to order a video inspection of your house drains on a regular basis every five years. This will allow you to have early warning of any developing problems, and allow you to avoid the sudden development of an emergency plumbing problem.
