Learn about sewer scope cameras
A sewer scope camera is a small and flexible camera with a long neck that is narrow enough to fit down a drain and can navigate its way through some of the twists and turns to get a look inside the pipe as it disappears into a wall or foundation. A camera for sewer pipe can also be part of a device similar to a snake that plumbers use - so it is more durable and able to be inserted further down the pipe.
Plumbers offer pipe inspection services with this device to get to the point in a pipe where a clog or break may exist in the hopes they can remedy the problem with as little invasive work as possible. Instead of digging up the whole pipe, the plumber can identify what the problem is and just dig up where the leak or break is.
What is a sewer camera?
A sewer scope camera is basically a long, snake probe with a tiny camera at the end. It allows plumbers to have a real-time look at what's going on in your pipes. Professional sewer cameras are equipped with bright LED lights that illuminate the inside of the pipe to reveal any cracks, clog sources or structural problems.
Sometimes the best sewer cameras include a radio transmitter inside the camera that records the underground depth and precise physical location of any defects or obstructions in the pipe. This allows plumbers to accurately diagnose any problems and present cost-effective treatment or repair options for their customers.
Why would you want a camera for sewer pipe?
A camera for sewer pipes, also known as a snake camera for plumbing, can detect whether you're dealing with a tree root infiltration; a broken, cracked, or collapsed pipe; major blockage of grease, sediment, or paper; or sagging pipes, causing buildup & eventual blockage. Plumbing cameras can help a plumber make an accurate diagnosis of an expensive problem without invasive and destructive inspection. An alternative to the plumbing inspection camera is to dig up the whole pipe to see where it’s leaking - a very labor-intensive and destructive process that’s also quite expensive.
What is the best cheap sewer camera?
Usually, plumbing pipe inspection cameras are operated and owned by plumbers so you don’t have to worry about this. Typically, they need to know the size of the pipe you have, how long of a camera they might need, and what type of building it is in and they will bring the best plumbing inspection camera to do the job.
Most plumbers that perform camera inspection plumbing work have access to a number of machines or they can rent the right one to do the job. If you have a small job and want to do it yourself the best cheap sewer camera has to have a waterproof camera probe and be maneuverable, but also rigid enough, to push down the pipes and get a good view inside the pipes. Most of these sewer cameras also have built-in lights and probes that are up to 50 feet long.
What are the best sewer cameras?
The best sewer cameras are the ones that get the job done and identify the problem as well as locate it in the pipe. Sewer cameras don’t usually solve the problem by themselves, they just identify the problem and locate it. Next, you usually need a plumber to fix the issue, which can sometimes involve digging up the pipes, sometimes this is even done under a foundation or street. The best sewer cam for the job is one that is the right size for the pipe with the problem, and it also needs to be the right length to reach the problem area. Plumbers who perform professional sewer camera inspections usually have several sewer camera models at their disposal depending on the job they are performing.
What is the best professional sewer camera?
If you’d rather buy your own pipe inspection camera, small handheld units can cost as little as $100 but there’s no guarantee that you’ll find the source of your problem - these cameras can only reach so far into pipes. Longer sewage cams can be purchased, but are going to cost more, possibly over $5,000. For this reason, many people choose to just hire a pipe inspector who brings all the right tools with them to get the job done.
