Your Guide To CCTV Drain Surveys CCTV drain surveys have been very beneficial in recent years to make sure
drainage systems are effectively cleared. This can prevent damage to your
drainage system and make sure no errors are made during clearance and cleaning.
Our guide takes you through what CCTV drain surveys are and why they are so beneficial.
B and S
Pipeline Solutions use CCTV drain surveys to make sure drain clearance and
unblocking is completed to the highest possible standard. We work throughout
Elgin and the whole of Scotland.
What Are CCTV Drain Surveys? CCTV drain surveys is an effective process to examine the
condition of drainage systems. This is done remotely using a camera system that
can record video footage of the drain and capture useful data to make sure we
know exactly what is causing blockages to a drainage system.
This technology is now essential when it comes to inspecting
and surveying underground drains, as well as making the service much more cost
effective and quicker. It can be used for a number of different drainage systems
on both commercial and domestic properties, making it ideal to resolve any
drain blockages without delay.
When To Use CCTV Drain Surveys CCTV drain surveys can be used for a range of purposes due
to their flexibility and effectiveness. This means you can use them in several
different situations to gather data safely, without completing potentially
hazardous confined space entries. CCTV drain surveys can be used as part of
preventative maintenance programmes, meaning there are several times they are
actually suitable to be used.
If you are moving into a new home or property, surveys can
be completed to give you a good idea of the condition of the drainage system
before you move in. This means if clearance or repairs are needed in the
future, you are not left in the dark and you have a full report based on your
drain surveys well in advance.
Drain surveys should also be used when blockages have
occurred or you think the drainage system has been damaged. Completing a survey
will be the most cost-effective and quickest way of identifying the problem
with your drains, before resolving the issue that is present.
Equipment Used In Drain Surveys For CCTV drain surveys to be completed to the highest
possible standard, there are several pieces of equipment that should be used. This
includes:
Access Rods Crawlers Sonar Units Waterproof Cameras Access rods are used to push the waterproof cameras along
the drain and navigate through the system. The waterproof cameras should always
provide the images needed to see what problems lie within the drainage system. Crawlers
are then used to provide visual access to sewer system, with sonar units used
for acoustic profiling to find where visual access is obstructed.
B and S Pipeline Solutions always use the best
industry equipment and latest methods to complete CCTV drain surveys correctly.
What Do Surveys Find? CCTV drain surveys can be used in many situations and are useful
for identifying a wide range of problems that could be present within your
