What Is a Flex-Shaft?
Before sewer cameras were invented, whatever method that was used to clean a pipe — cables or hydro jetting -was done blind. The operator kept running the equipment up and down the line figuring that he would eventually clear everything. Sewer cameras allowed a plumber to check the pipe after the cleaning attempt was made to see what still needed work. When a plumber in Michigan invented a flex-shaft cleaner it allowed him to watch the cleaning process. He could move the cleaning head exactly to where it was needed and avoid possibly damaging the pipe where no cleaning was needed. We use flex shafts both for cleaning and de-scaling.
When Is Camera-Directed Pipe Cleaning Needed?
Some clogs cannot be removed by simply using a plunger, even if you’re working with the best plumber in Philadelphia, PA. Obstructions can be caused by mineral buildup, food waste, excessive paper products, or other materials that cling to your pipes and require professional-grade equipment to clear. Tree roots are often the culprit in heavily wooded areas. They will grow toward sources of water and nutrients, working their way into your pipes through a tiny crack or hole.
When your approach isn’t working, it’s time to call the professionals. Other DIY methods of unclogging drains can even cause more damage to your pipes, ultimately increasing the cost of repairs. Let Pipeshark fix your clogged drains with camera-aided flex shaft equipment and get to the heart of the problem.
