Creating A Great Technology Plan

A Pipe Inspection Camera Will Allow You To Improve Accuracy And Save Time During Service Appointments

Digging a trench used to be commonplace when determining where a blockage or damage to a sewer line was located. A homeowner may cringe at the thought of their beautiful yard being torn up if a plumbing problem arises and troubleshooting needs to be performed to determine what part of the plumbing is at fault. If you are a residential and commercial plumber, consider adding a pipe camera to your service equipment.

A Camera Will Let You Get A Close Look Without Being Invasive

You want to be certain about the location of a problem so that you can confidently tell a client the steps necessary to remedy an issue. A homeowner could be apprehensive about you digging in their yard, and you and your plumbing team could be needlessly wasting time if an issue is found to be coming from another location after digging is complete.

A pipe camera will allow you to get a close look at what is going on underground without needing to lift a finger. After inserting a pipe camera through an opening in the plumbing, you control the direction and speed that the camera travels as it traverses a specific section of the plumbing. A pipe camera comes with a monitor that will allow you to view footage in real time.

You also have the option of reviewing footage at a later date if a question arises or if you are going to be training your workers and would like to educate them about the proper use of a camera and the various information that is acquired by running a camera through plumbing lines. 

Service Appointments Won't Take As Long

If you have been trying to expand your client base, but have been convinced that you are never going to be able to add many more service appointments to your schedule because the average amount of time that it takes you to complete standard appointments seems to be cutting into your available work hours, then a camera could benefit you.

Because you won't be needlessly digging trenches and won't have to search to find the location of a blockage or leak, you can address a plumbing issue as soon as you have run your equipment through a line. After buying a camera, learn how each of its components works before bringing the equipment along with you to a job site.

Once you are comfortable using the camera, let each of your clients know that you will be using the equipment to assist with determining the root of each plumbing problem that you have been hired to address.
