    When you say you are on it, are you feeling resistance from the blockage, or blockages? Great job. 💚💚

    • @DrainPros
      @DrainPros  4 года назад +12

      Yeah after doing drains for a while you definitely get a feeling when your at the issue spot! Typically with the jetter you can feel if you are going into thick sludge because it gives you a little resistance through your hands or if it’s a break in the pipe or a hard blockage you can feel the jetter almost bounce back to you when you press into it! 👍 it’s easier to know when your at the spot with the cable machine because most of the time the motor with bog down indicating that your into resistance!

They said that they don’t want mud in their tank and that I have to get someone else to dig the mud out. I can not find any videos talking about what to do if I have mud in my system? Please help!

    Im trying to expand my plumbing business, id like to offer sewer jetting and main snaking, but im a major germaphobe, and cant stomach even watching this. The most ive done until now was clean 1 sewer pump and pit, probably never again... but there is 1 building that i work at all the time( at least 40 full days this year alone) that im always changing out 40 -50 feet at a time of 4" cast and knuckles that lead to the main, that i can do not a big deal even while tennants are home and flush every now and then i just have to move out the way when i hear it flush.... and once i get the main 4" wye on its just a straight run and some branches, so i feel if i can do these sewer replacements live i can do jetting and sewer snaking..... any ideas on how to get over that phobia of dealing with sewage all day?

    Too bad all of it didn't run into the neighbors yard, that would've saved you a bit of time. Right under the gate lmfao!!!!

    That is an amateurish method. They are spreading sewage onto the ground when they should be looking for a full size cover which means that the sewage is confined to the drain! It takes time to find that drain cover, but that is the proper method of access for the jetter and confines the sewage within the chamber.
