This is a very stubborn and difficult to clear blockage caused by our client using wipes. We spent over an hour jetting, shovelling and rodding the drain, and show you how we CCTV inspect the drain for any defects. We hope you enjoy the tripod! Although there were some teething problems with it.

Hi everyone! What do you think of us using a tripod? Was this a better view for you? Any feedback is always appreciated 😁 Also, over 90% of you aren't subscribed... So hit that subscribe button and help us out 🤪 Thanks!

Just ban all wipes, solve 2 problems - cut down on the amount of plastic entering the sea and drastically reduce drain blockages. Or make the manufacturers liable for the damage they are doing, Johnstone and Johnstone know the damage their products are creating....

@eduardoA1974 3 года назад

Hi! I found your channel at the suggestion of youtube, several months ago I also follow Drain addict, I am also a plumber, but in Argentina, South America. I see that his jet equipment is different from the Ollie (Drain addict), he also has his truck more orderly !!! hahaha. Here in Argentina uncovering is done, but they are mechanical, there are few companies that uncover with a jet !!! Generally, these teams have medium-sized companies, one of the techniques that I use to uncover is to use the effect of atmospheric pressure !!, I fill 6 or 8 20-liter buckets and with the help of an assistant I try to dump them all at the same time !! the amount of water added to its weight generates a terrible push !!! sometimes it works! all this combined with the use of uncovering rods! from now on attentive to your publications !!!! my regards from Argentina !!! I did all this text using the Google translator, because my level of English is very low !!! haha

You can fish them out to a point but it really is quite hard to in practice. Sometimes it is just best to push out to the main drain, were they enter a pipe with a much larger diameter.

The UK has combined sewer and downspout drainage? If so, that's very different than most places in the US. Even just having this sort of a manhole access is much different than the US. Really interesting to see differences

@marianbirks6594 2 года назад

Not all houses have combined surface water and sewers, where I live rainwater (down pipes) goes into soakaways special permission has to be obtained to be allowed to join rainwater into sewer system and this is hard to get

@confusedcraftsman8335 3 года назад

The gurgling manhole. Sounds like a horror movie to me😅 Just curious if you have considered a remote for the jetter or maybe a reel with a tap? It just looks like such a chore for you to walk to the car each time you have to turn the pressure off. But good job as always 🙂

Why do you guys not use the reel with the open/close valve? It seems crazy to keep going back and forth to the van to turn the pressure on or off. Love the vids and the tripod shots are great.

@TheDrainUnblockers 3 года назад

We do have another reel but again comes down to simplicity. Keep it simple stupid it's a bit more work walking to the van and back but adding additional quick release reels is just another point of failure.

@james-5560 3 года назад

Does your jetter put a lot of air into the line as well as water? lots more bubbles that I've seen on other drain jetting videos so I was just curious.

@andrewready1137 2 года назад

@mikejarvis7701 3 года назад

WOW an open hole for sewer in front yard. Guess we have closed systems until street. Or mine to septic tank and only maybe water at Leach exit if alot of rain

@spencerwilton5831 3 года назад

what are you talking about? It's an inspection chamber, fitted with an airtight lid. They are required at each junction or change of direction. They tend to be smaller and preformed from plastic now rather than brick built. Remember these likely predate modern jetting systems by a century or two- when you relied upon simple wooden rods to clear blockages you needed frequent access points and relatively straight runs of pipe between them!

@jrp55262 3 года назад

@@spencerwilton5831 Might be a UK thing. Here in the states inspection chambers like that only really exist on street mains and some very large commercial installations. Residential connections are closed pipe all the way to the street (or septic tank) with cleanout ports at certain junctions.

@lisahughes5319 3 года назад

With all that gurgling, something tells me the pipe has a hump in it along its length. Have just subscribed and appreciate all the out-of-site work that goes on keeping us all happy. Have to say, though, I like the way you explain what you are doing, but giving us an idea of depth down the pipe would be better, and it gives you more time to gab to fill in the video.
