What is a drain camera?

A drain camera is a small camera that is a specially designed optical inspection tool for hard to reach areas and cavities. It is used mainly for the inspection of pipes laid in the ground to detect blockages or leakages. The drain camera consists of a camera mounted on a push cable. This allows it to be inserted and pushed inside the pipes. The experts at Melbourne 24-hour Plumbing have drain cameras that can meet your needs. We are available at any time you need your plumbing line inspected.

Most drain problems occur due to clogging and the drain getting blocked. The pipes may be in hard to reach areas. This causes a problem in locating where the blockage has occurred. Melbourne 24-hour Plumbing uses the latest and the best CCTV technology to help you locate the problem in your drain. We offer drain cameras that are waterproof and durable to survey where the pipes have a problem. The drain camera can record every inch of your drain and supply a DVD of the recording.

The drain camera contains a screen that allows you to view the interior of the drain. This allows one to locate where the pipes have clogged and blocked easily. This helps one save money and time. It is cost-effective as one does not have to undo the entire drainage system to locate the problem.

Since the drain camera is remotely controlled, any risks occurring during the inspection of pipes is greatly reduced. The drain camera helps reduce expenses that would otherwise be experienced in digging up the pipes. Drain cameras can also be used to locate valuables lost in the drain. Some valuables such as rings are small and can fit through the drain. They are therefore easily lost in the drain. Finding them can be a difficult task. A drain camera allows one to locate where they are in the drainage system. This greatly aids the location and recovery of such items.

When moving into a new house, it is essential to conduct a full and detailed inspection. This makes sure that you can locate any problems and defects as early as possible. A drain camera comes in handy during such inspections. It allows one to access the nature of the drainage condition and conclude whether you will need to repair or replace any pipes. The drain camera can locate leakages in pipes. Since it is waterproof, it may be used to determine where the pipe is leaking. This helps in assessing whether the pipe will be replaced or repaired. It also helps determine the best repair tools to use. Sometimes, the pressure of water in pipes may reduce.
