When a drain is clogged, you need to find a drain cleaning professional as soon as possible. Your technician or plumber will come and prepare their equipment to get rid of the clog as soon as possible. One of the most used and most important pieces of equipment is the drain cleaning cable.
Your technician or plumber has various pieces of equipment with him to complete the task at hand. A drain cleaning machine, cables, and cable reels. The drain technician probably also has chisels, spearheads, chucks, and drain care products available from Duracable Manufacturing Company.
The Cleaning Process
To start the cleaning process, your technician will probably remove the “P” trap under your sink, and see if the clog is there. It’s a common spot for things to get stuck.
If the clog isn’t there, your technician will send a camera at the end of a push cable/camera reel to check where the clog is. Once he has established the cause of the clog, he’ll use a different kind of cable to run another piece of equipment down the drain to clear and unclog the drain. These cables are made to move around tight spaces and around corners. Once the technician has fed the top portion of the push cable into the drain, the rest is manually fed into it slowly and carefully.
Drain Cleaning Cable
Now that the technician knows where the problem is and what kind of clog it is, they’ll use a drain cleaning cable to clear the clog. Duracable has all types of cables and blades that are needed to get the job done efficiently and accurately.
Depending on the severity of the clog, the technician or plumber will decide what size and shape of blade to use at the end of the drain cleaning cable. He will then feed the top end that has the blade into the clogged drain.
From there, he’ll start the motor on the drain machine, which will rotate the snake or drain cleaning cable in the drain pipe. He will then use the feature to automatically feed the rest of the cable down the drain to locate the clog and begin the unclogging process.
Once the clog has been cleared, he’ll remove the cable. He may use the camera one more time to confirm that the clog has in fact been loosened and removed.
