WHY IS DRAIN SURVEY IMPORTANT?




A drainage survey is an important part of any plumbing project because it helps determine how well a home’s plumbing system is functioning. CCTV Drain Inspection provides a cost-effective way to inspect your drainage system without having to disrupt your day-to-day life or make major changes to your property. If you are thinking of renovating a bathroom, or if there is a blocked sink that needs to be unblocked in your home, there are many methods for assessing the condition of your drainage.

One method is to use water from a sink in the bathroom and run it down through the drain to see what happens at each bend in the pipe. Another way of assessing how well-functioning your system is is to use CCTV Drain Inspection equipment at strategic locations throughout your property, like under sinks, in the shower, and by the toilet.

There are a number of different types of CCTV Drain Inspection equipment that can be used to assess drainage conditions. A video camera is attached to a pipe, and water is pumped through it at various speeds as it travels down the pipe. The video camera records everything happening on its screen while the water flows, which enables you to see how quickly or slowly it flows at each spot in your drainage system; this will tell you if there are any obstructions that could be slowing the flow of water. If you want to discover exactly where the main blockages are in your drainage system, a tool called a CCTV camera sewer snake can be used. The camera is inserted into the end of a long tube and then allowed to slither away down through your drainpipe. , revealing the blockages as it goes.
