Plumbing issues can be difficult to diagnose without the proper equipment. For example, much of the septic system is out of sight and requires invasive digging to determine the source of the problem. This is not the case with video inspections. Here’s more information about this service and how it will help your business. 

How Do Camera Services for Plumbing Work?

A video inspection uses a waterproof camera attached to the end of a flexible rod. The wire and camera are thin enough to fit through small openings and can navigate the curves of your plumbing without catching on the pipes. This transmits a real-time, high-resolution feed that allows the plumbers to see inside your piping or septic system.

If there’s a clog preventing water from passing, then a plumber can use this technology to determine how best to break up the obstruction. They can also identify the type of material forming the clog, such as grease or tree roots.

What Are the Benefits of This Process?

A video inspection removes the guesswork from identifying unseen plumbing issues. The accurate visuals increase the efficiency of the diagnosis and ensure timely repairs. This can also reduce service costs, since the plumber can focus their efforts without having to work on unnecessary parts of the system.

A camera service can even act as a preventative measure, supplying information on potential issues before they manifest. For example, a camera can spot tree roots starting to overgrow septic system piping, or grease attached to a restaurant’s plumbing.
