CCTV Drain Cameras

 

Why Use a Drain Camera

Using a drain camera while cleaning a blocked drain allows the blockage to be physically seen and located from above the ground. A drain camera allows the guesswork to be removed so the problem can be pinpointed quickly and easily. Once the cause and location of a blocked drain is determined, it can be accurately assessed and an appropriate solution provided.

 

Once the pipes have been cleaned with a high pressure water jetter, the CCTV drain camera should be reinserted into the pipe to confirm it has been thoroughly cleared. It is important that the drain camera be of good quality with clear vision. Some cheaper drain cameras have an inferior camera head that produce murky camera footage making it difficult to clearly assess the state of the pipe.
