Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) drain camera is a new innovation within the plumbing industry. They work as a diagnostic tool that allows plumbers to get into hard-to-see places in order to diagnose the problem and where it is located.
With the advancement of technology, you can get a more accurate view of your plumbing issues, leading to a better solution in the long term.
They can be used in a number of different scenarios to diagnose the problem as quickly as possible and determine the best course of action.
When it comes to a blocked drain, a drain camera is one of the most useful pieces of equipment a plumber can have on hand to help.
So how does it work?

CCTV cameras are one of the most effective ways to diagnose a plumbing problem, and they also save you time and money in the process.
Before this technology was developed, plumbers relied on educated guesswork, or pipes and drains needed to be excavated in order to find the issue. This can be time-consuming, costly and an extremely messy process.
CCTV cameras also provide a more accurate picture of exactly what is occurring within the drains or pipes. The footage can be examined in detail afterwards, allowing for second opinions and more in-depth decision making before determining the best solution moving forward.
The great news is that a simple issue such as a blockage can be fixed on the spot, clearing your pipes and drains so you can use them again straight away. More complex issues, such as misaligned pipes, major damage and so on, will need to be investigated further before a solution is decided on.
