About CCTV Drain Inspections

CCTV stands for “closed circuit television.” In CCTV, a camera sends an encoded, digital signal to a monitor or recording device. This technology is best known as a way to monitor public areas, helping to discourage crime. However, it can also reveal evil at work in storm water drain, pits, and sewage lines.

Compact, specially designed CCTV cameras can be inserted into drainage systems, where they will record the condition of the pipes’ interiors. This can reveal the locations and causes of leaks, blockages, and other types of damage to the pipes.

CCTV can also confirm problems with the design and installation of drainage systems. For example, improper pipe connections can result in overloaded sewers. Insufficient pipe slopes can cause water to accumulate under floors or next to foundations, and may even trigger sewage back flow.

Smart Flow Plumbing can provide detailed reports and high resolution videos of your pipes’ condition based on a CCTV inspection.

Water Jetting – Remove Drain and Sewerage Blockages

Cleaning a pipe using a high pressure stream of water is called “jetting.”

Jetting is often used in conjunction with CCTV pipe inspections. When drain pipes are dirty or blocked, jetting can help prepare them for a CCTV inspection. If a CCTV inspection reveals a full or partial blockage, then jetting can help to clear it.

Regular jetting can keep storm sewers functioning at full capacity. It clears dirt and silt from the pipes, helping to maintain the full design flow and prevent blockages.

Smart Flow Plumbing can use jetting to clean pipes for CCTV inspections, to clear blockages, or as part of a general maintenance program.
