What is Video Camera Inspection?

Video camera inspection is the primary method that plumbers use to find problems with a plumbing system. A long cord is inserted into the system, with a motorized camera at the end of it. The camera travels through the plumbing system, sending video back to the plumber controlling it. This way, the plumber can thoroughly examine your pipes for issues without tearing up the house to physically examine them. Video camera inspection makes it much easier to find and fix problems earlier, so that they have less time to cause damage. This is by far the best method for keeping tabs on your home’s plumbing.

Why You Need Video Camera Inspection

As previously mentioned, many plumbing problems go unnoticed because the pipes are hidden from view. Most plumbing problems can cause a great deal of damage if allowed to progress for too long. For example:

Pinhole Leaks: These tiny leaks are only large enough to leak a couple drops of water at a time, but if left alone for long enough they can cause a great deal of water damage. Most homeowners don’t notice pinhole leaks, because they’re too small to cause a drop in water pressure. Pinhole leaks tend to only get noticed once they’ve rotted out the surrounding area, which is quite obvious even from the other side of the wall.
Corrosion: Various kinds of corrosion can affect your pipes, weakening them and making it more likely for leaks or ruptures to occur. Without close examination of the pipes, however, there is no way to actually observe this corrosion occurring.

The only way to catch these issues early is to have a plumber examine your pipes on a fairly regular basis, and the best way to do that is with video camera inspection.
