    Hi! I found your channel at the suggestion of youtube, several months ago I also follow Drain addict, I am also a plumber, but in Argentina, South America. I see that his jet equipment is different from the Ollie (Drain addict), he also has his truck more orderly !!! hahaha. Here in Argentina uncovering is done, but they are mechanical, there are few companies that uncover with a jet !!! Generally, these teams have medium-sized companies, one of the techniques that I use to uncover is to use the effect of atmospheric pressure !!, I fill 6 or 8 20-liter buckets and with the help of an assistant I try to dump them all at the same time !! the amount of water added to its weight generates a terrible push !!! sometimes it works! all this combined with the use of uncovering rods! from now on attentive to your publications !!!! my regards from Argentina !!! I did all this text using the Google translator, because my level of English is very low !!! haha

    Why do you guys not use the reel with the open/close valve? It seems crazy to keep going back and forth to the van to turn the pressure on or off. Love the vids and the tripod shots are great.

    • @TheDrainUnblockers
      @TheDrainUnblockers  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      We do have another reel but again comes down to simplicity. Keep it simple stupid it's a bit more work walking to the van and back but adding additional quick release reels is just another point of failure.

    • @spencerwilton5831
      @spencerwilton5831 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      what are you talking about? It's an inspection chamber, fitted with an airtight lid. They are required at each junction or change of direction. They tend to be smaller and preformed from plastic now rather than brick built. Remember these likely predate modern jetting systems by a century or two- when you relied upon simple wooden rods to clear blockages you needed frequent access points and relatively straight runs of pipe between them!

      @jrp55262 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@spencerwilton5831 Might be a UK thing. Here in the states inspection chambers like that only really exist on street mains and some very large commercial installations. Residential connections are closed pipe all the way to the street (or septic tank) with cleanout ports at certain junctions.

    Hi, you should check out the drain addict channel. He has some fantastic equipment for drainage work. He controls the jet right by him and doesn’t have to run back and forth to the van turning it on and of all the time. Quick couplings for different jettingheads, rootcutter, penetrator, double barrel etc.

      The drains are designed so faeces can pass through and go into the main drains. Once the blockage was jetted, the pipe was clear and without blockages. This allows future waste to pass through freely to the main drains

    Why are you playing in the shit? Why not put the nozzle in down stream and come back up into the blockage? I did this when I was much younger when I worked for a City water and sewer department. We always did our best to start below the blockage and let the power nozzle ram into the blockage from down stream. The few times we had to go into the sewage we used a rod machine...
