plumber camera
A plumber camera, also known as a sewer inspection camera or drain camera, is an advanced diagnostic tool that revolutionizes how plumbing professionals inspect and diagnose pipe-related issues. This specialized equipment consists of a flexible, waterproof cable with a high-resolution camera at its tip, capable of transmitting real-time video footage to a connected monitor. The camera head is equipped with powerful LED lights that illuminate the pipe interior, enabling clear visibility in completely dark conditions. Modern plumber cameras typically feature recording capabilities, allowing professionals to document findings and share them with customers. The camera can navigate through pipes ranging from 1.5 to 12 inches in diameter and can extend up to 200 feet or more, depending on the model. These devices often include location tracking technology that can pinpoint the exact position of problems underground, making repairs more efficient and less invasive. The system usually comes with a digital interface that displays important information such as the depth of the camera head and the distance it has traveled into the pipe. Many advanced models also include features like self-leveling capabilities to maintain proper orientation and built-in sensors that can detect temperature variations or potential hazards within the pipe system.
