经常问的问题

  • 什么是下水道范围?
    A sewer scope is a thorough analysis of the sewer lateral line; from the interior cleanout stack, through the home, then outside to the city main connection.
  • 在下水道范围内可以看到什么?
    A sewer scope is used to try and identify the condition of the line, and the type of material that the sewer lateral is made of. During a sewer scope, we are looking for any of the following: - Damage to the line - Blockages as a result of excessive debris - Any root intrusion - Scaling (build up inside the line) - Bellies in the line (low spots that create areas for debris to collect)
  • 什么是下水道侧线?
    A sewer lateral line is the main sewer line from the house to a city main connection.
  • 什么样的东西是可冲洗的?
    In it's simplest form... toilet paper and nothing else. This is the only flushable item that is recommended as flushable. Despite product labeling claiming items such as baby wipes and sanitary products to be flushable, it is not recommended as these items do not easily break down in the sewer line.
  • “拉马桶”是什么意思?
    Pulling a toilet means that you are disconnecting the toilet from the closet collar that it is connected to, removing the toilet from the pipework that it is attached to. In doing so, this exposes a 4" hole that can be used for running a camera. This is done when there is no other access to a sewer lateral line.
  • 如何进入下水道侧线?
    Access is usually found through an interior plumbing stack - the main stack for the house. This stack will have a cleanout cap that can be removed so that the camera can be inserted and run out to the city connection. Alternatively, there may be a yard vent outside, this cap can be removed and the camera can be inserted through this vent, under the house, and out to the city connection. A third option is to access the line from a vent on the roof.
  • 运行相机涉及哪些步骤?
    1. Assess the home to determine distance between bathrooms and plumbing lines. This is done to determine the furthest point of entry away from the city main line in order to ensure that the entire sewer lateral line is inspected. 2. Identify the location of the cleanout within the home. 3. If accessible, slowly turn on water to determine flow. - This is often where backups are found. 4. Open the clean out cap and insert the camera. The camera will follow the flow of water to the city main connection and the line will be inspected. 5. Retrieve the line from the city connection back to the clean out cap, recording and describing what is found on the way. 6. Replace the clean out cap, and clean the area.
