any way you could provide another promo code...the current one is no longer valid

@robertadriver6931 Год назад

Thank goodness I'm renting & do not have to worry about inspecting sewers/pipes etc. Very good information for those who would have use for this type of device.

@mikechiodetti4482 Год назад

That's a very nice tool! It shows what you need to know and the trouble spots. Showing the condition of the pipe can help to locate current and future problems. Eliminate problems quickly to prevent future big "OH NO's! " Thank you for this video.

@beachboardfan9544 Год назад

Damn vevor is pushing through youtubers hard! Gotta be the 4th person in a month I've seen review that tool.

@joebrown1382 Год назад

I had a Maple tree right on top of my sewer so I removed the tree, problem solved. I also had roots packed in the PVC of my sump pump drain it was so tight the pump kept cycling. Nice demostration.

@joanies6778 Год назад

This is great info to understand as an owner of a 1917 house that still has the original sewer line, approx 135 ft to the city sewer main. I've had some issues recently and plan to hire a local guy to come probe the line with a camera and a locator to find the second clean out and the city sewer connection point (for when I do have to replace the line.) The first plumber probed multiple times with rotary devices and found no indication of roots, but there is a little pushing up, creating a belly, and some sludge between the belly and my house. He used a power water blaster to get through the sludge and clear a lot of it up, but I bought an accelerator to work on dissolving the remaining sludge for now. I am wondering if these will work down a chimney, too...

@HouseImprovements Год назад

This camera would work anywhere you can slide it into.

@JohnDoeRando Год назад

Good point about showing the room on inspections for homeowners.

@TheSlipperyNoodle Год назад

Great video.

@aletheafarber8327 11 месяцев назад

I found this video very informative. I wish I would have had one before having a leak detection company come to my house. In finding I have an old cistern under my home, the leak detection company didn't bother to find it's true depth only determining minimum depth of at least 12 feet. I now need to purchase a liquid level sensor to find the true depth myself. There are many inexpensive ones on Amazon most without reviews or instructions at all. Perhaps you could do an instructional video on the liquid level sensors someday.

@1mw4tch1ng 5 месяцев назад

great video showing how the camera trasitions in the sewer pipe. Vevor should have labeled both sides of the camera cable for ease of viewing how many feet.

@johnlebzelter4208 Год назад

My assumption was right. I worked in the sewer/non-hazardous waste industry. I’ve camera’d lines, jetted lines, pumped out tanks and cleaned large tanks at WWTP. My assumption was the camera assembly isn’t heavy enough for when you push the line back into the coil. Looks like my assumption was correct.

@knight-ue6tf Год назад

My bro has one comes in handy we seen roots growing in them sewer pipes

@Fayw2023 3 месяца назад

Nice!!!!

@kamilmarkowicz Год назад

Not sure about Canada, but here in the states we have a readily available root killer that you can pour down your clean-out as a preventative measure. It usually contains Copper Sulfate and it kills roots on contact. Your sewer line seems to be in great shape otherwise, so I'm curious if that could save you some cash.

@HouseImprovements Год назад

Possibly , I have never heard of that.

@Pete.Ty1 Год назад

@micahjones7188 Год назад

You could do a trenchless repair on that. You can have a 4 section done for a reasonable rate.

@kylejanik6895 7 месяцев назад

The two rubber caps that you said you weren't sure what they're for the larger one is for the stainless steel end of the cable to protect the electrical connection when unscrewing the camera head the smaller cap is for the prongs on the camera Head

Sounds logical, thanks

@tomwestbrook1266 Год назад

@hp7vlogs Год назад

@bryanmontgomery4050 Год назад

Copper sulfate inside pipe, dig up drain and encase it in concrete for about four feet, treat exterior roots with copper sulfate also, it won’t kill the tree.

@vinceveltri7732 Год назад

Would like to see this tool used on the forced air duct systems.

@HouseImprovements Год назад

good idea. watch for that !

@tribulationprepper787 Год назад

Shannon, Would it be possible to kill off the surface vegetation which those roots belong to?

@HouseImprovements Год назад

These roots are from a 60+ ' tall tree

@mikef6706 8 месяцев назад

Hello My Vevor inspection camera the viewing angle seems off by 90*. The water shows at the 3oClock position. How do you adjust it so the bottom/water is at the 6 oClock position? Thank You

@HouseImprovements 8 месяцев назад

You can't . It all depends how the camera sits as it slides down the pipe.If it really bothers you turn your screen.

@frjram1359 3 месяца назад

Can you please measure the thickness of the cable? I need a thicker cable to push through my sewer line for inspection. I'm tired of returning cameras with thin cables in 5mm diameter that will not do their job. Some vendors don't provide this critical info. It costs a lot to return. Thank you!

@HouseImprovements 3 месяца назад

This is 5mm. I have never had an issue pushing it.

@InvisionPlumbing 10 часов назад

I recently had to do a buncha research on cameras to make an educated decision. From what I learned, its not so much the thickness, but the classification they give the cable. Youll start at flexible, then mid stiff, then stiff. This unit here is a mid stiff unit with 165 feet of reel. Personally, I cant get it to go further than 120 feet (havent tried it with the rollers attachment, too scared of getting stuck).

@feinschmegga Год назад

How much is the annual clean-out compared to digging down and fixing it for good?

@HouseImprovements Год назад

$200 to clean VS. $10K -$14K to replace

@Isaidthat1111 4 месяца назад

We call that a low spot, a belly which cause clogs because it slow the flow down hence a build up of product

@PortCapital 3 месяца назад

I installed perimeter drains on new builds for a few years. I am now running a successful moss removal/gutter cleaning business and had the idea of investing in one of these to add perimeter drain inspections. Is this something thats feasible to do for people?

@HouseImprovements 3 месяца назад

There can be a market for it. Many home inspectors and drain cleaning companies in my area offer this service

@ysagas 3 месяца назад

100 % if you got access for it we get calls to clean out rain drains and so forth I’m sure you could run a camera on those too

@jmrprecisionplumbinginc6238 3 месяца назад

Does it has a sonde to send a signal to a detector?

@robd.4319 Год назад

Shannon you should think about having you pipe relined. That would make a good video. Who knows they may do it for free for advertising how to fix a cracked sewer pipe.

@bigrockk2980 Год назад

My neighbor had there sewer relined last year, 15 grand was the charge and our homes aren't that far from the street so I doubt anyone would do it for free, but hey, it never hurts to ask ;)

@1goodyy1 8 месяцев назад

Spartan has a LiDAR patch system patches are slightly expensive but 2 patches would be greatly worthwhile in your case being on a continuous lateral cleaning program

can you change the camera to an aftermarket 4K camera

@yvetteydang3123 9 месяцев назад

my uncle just purchased this and the light doesn’t come on.

@HouseImprovements 9 месяцев назад

Turn on the switch on the battery box and rotate the knob on the battery box, this controls the light brightness. Be sure the battery is charged also. If that does not do it but the screen has a picture then contact the supplier for advice and or exchange.

@kylejanik6895 7 месяцев назад

If you don't like the little strapped getting in the way of the spool when it's spinning just use your brain clip the strap onto the small metal ring that the cable first comes out

@HouseImprovements 7 месяцев назад

Haha."use my brain". I love you keyboards warriors! Clipping it there does not keep it far enough out of the way but thanks "tips"!

@kylejanik6895 7 месяцев назад

@JohnR9965 Год назад

Why not reline the pipe with that sleeve machine. I don’t know the name of it. Sure it’s not cheap but would end the yearly root issues.

@user-ej1bq4bq2w 7 месяцев назад

How hard would it be to drill a hole in the frame and attach a ring for the clip when not in use? Seems like you don't really have much in the way of critical thinking skills to problem shoot exceptionally simple issues. Makes me wonder how you make a living in the field of home improvements, if you can't even figure out how to secure a simple clip.

@HouseImprovements 7 месяцев назад

Hahaha, I like you problem solvers who hide behind your keyboards!
