The country’s main cause of property damage is non-weather water damage. A recent report shows that water damage was responsible for 29.4% of property damage in 2019. Your home is at high risk for severe damage if you don’t take preventive measures to maintain your plumbing. Plumbing companies can now diagnose problems early with advanced technology. These technologies can be used to prevent a problem with your plumbing system in the future. Find out about new plumbing repair services and the new technologies plumbers use to maintain their plumbing systems.
1. Video Camera Inspection
Clogged drains can be a common problem in plumbing. Plumbers used trench excavations for decades to fix sewer or drain problems. Video camera inspection has revolutionized plumbing services. This innovative technology uses a compact camera that is ruggedly compatible with all environments.
A fiber-optic connection is used to transmit live images to the snake camera. The camera is guided by a plumber through the sewer or drain lines to identify any issues. The technology can identify common plumbing problems such as blockages, corrosion and collapsed drains.
Video camera technology is faster than traditional drain inspections that require extensive excavations. This technology will save you time and money, and it won’t harm your landscaping. The revolutionary drain inspection technology is the perfect solution for anyone who has tried to unblock a drain with a plunger or chemical drain cleaners.
2. Trenchless Lining Technology
Traditional pipe repair can be labor-intensive and expensive. Because of the high cost and disruptions, homeowners fear such projects. Trenchless lining technology has made pipe repair more affordable and less complicated. This innovation does not require the digging of large trenches to replace pipes.
A plumber will thread a fiberglass pipe made of epoxy resin through an older damaged pipe. It is possible to install a new pipe without digging. This technology allows you to save money and allow your plumbing system to continue functioning seamlessly.
3. Hydro Jet Drain Cleaning
Water blasting/hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to clear clogged drains and sewer lines. The system includes a pressure machine connected to a hose with a nozzle.
A video camera inspection of the drain must be done before hand. This stage checks the condition of the pipes, and detects any blockages. The plumber will connect a cleanout tube to a nozzle, and guide the two pipes into the drain. The plumber will blast high-pressure water through your nozzle if the cleanout pipe gets stuck.
The water pressure can be so high that it can dissolve any material in your plumbing system. Water blasting is a great way to get rid of grease, sludge and tree roots.
Hydro jetting technology uses no chemicals, which makes it environmentally friendly. Advanced drain repair is quick and easy. This will protect your landscaping and save you time.
4. Sound-Based Leak Detection
Because of the potential damage that could result, leaks can be a major concern for homeowners. Leakage in pipes, drains, or sewers can lead to structural damage, property damage, as well as health problems due to mold growth. Plumbers can now use cutting-edge equipment to detect leaks in pipes.
Early detection of a pipe leak can help prevent flooding, mold growth, cracks in walls, and other problems. Sound-based leak detectors eliminate the need to dig when a plumber is trying to fix a leak.
