The Use and Benefits of Digital Inspection Equipment
Are you a drain technician looking to make your job easier and improve customer loyalty? Try using digital inspection equipment in your work to accomplish both goals. Using a digital inspection product – such as a Ridgid camera, monitor, or locator – will be extremely beneficial to your business and will be worth the investment.
Using a camera system when working with drain lines can be very useful. Camera reels with a small camera head, such as the Ridgid SeeSnake reels, will easily navigate through twists and turns in the line that you are evaluating. The SeeSnake model can inspect pipes ranging from 2” to 12” in diameter, providing a wide range of possible uses at different jobsites, both residential and commercial. This model can also operate in temperatures as low as 4°F and as high as 104°F, making it useful year-round. Once you have run the camera through the line, you can begin clearing it with the confidence that you know the problem and can address it.
When you use a camera on the job, it can also help your customers trust you more. The camera offers a great view of the exact issue within the pipes. You could explain what’s going on without showing the customer visual proof, but the customer might not believe that that is the issue or that it’s as severe as it is. For all they know, you could be lying to take advantage of the situation and milk more of their money from them. Help them trust you by showing them firsthand what the problem is.
There is a variety of digital inspection equipment beyond a camera available for purchase. A monitor is an essential product to pair with a camera; it offers a live view of the camera’s footage on its screen, and many can now record and transmit the footage so saving and sharing with customers is easier than ever. At Duracable, we offer Ridgid monitors and a G-Vision monitor. Some other helpful digital inspection equipment are hand-held cameras, transmitters, and locators. Hand-held cameras can be used when larger camera systems aren’t optimal, such as in tight work areas. Transmitters can be of great assistance as they can help you trace metallic lines that could carry an electromagnetic signal like phone lines. Other types of transmitters can be sent down plumbing lines so you can trace buried pipes or locate septic systems. Locators will help you easily find plumbing lines or buried utilities from above ground, especially with the help of a transmitter.
While it is not an absolute necessity to use digital inspection equipment while inspecting lines, it makes the job much easier and quicker. Cameras will help you and your customer to better understand what the problem is within the line. Other technology will help you locate buried cable and find plumbing deep within the ground. With how much help it can be, investing in digital inspection equipment can quickly pay for itself in your time saved and money earned.
