The Basics of Video Pipe Inspection Tools
Plumbers once used a range of tools to approach pipe repair and replacement jobs, but some guesswork was eventually necessary. This could lead to time-consuming and costly errors. This is no longer necessary thanks to the miniaturization and digital technology of video pipe inspections.
A video pipe camera is a small digital camera attached to the end of a long, insulated fiber-optic cable. An LED light is mounted beside the camera for illumination. A plumber sends the cable down into drains or sewer clean-outs, and the camera relays images back to a monitor. The HD monitor gives the plumber a full view of the interior of the pipe. The images can be recorded and shown to the customer. Using this information, the plumber can plan out the repair, cleaning, or replacement service that will meet the customer’s needs and reduce the time that would otherwise go into trial-and-error efforts. Once the service is completed, the plumber can use the camera to look over the work and show the customer what was done.
This Equipment Comes in Handy All the Time
A case with video pipe inspection equipment is part of the standard set of tools our plumbers have in their vans when they arrive at a home. They can put these cameras to work in a variety of jobs. For example, when a customer has experienced drainage trouble in their house, the plumber can send the camera down into the sewer line and discover that tree roots have grown into the pipe and blocked it. A plumber can use the camera to pinpoint where hidden pipe leaks are occurring, and that makes it much easier to excavate to reach the specific section needing repairs.
