    it's so satisfying when the blockage releases and the level drops, even just to watch. Another nice job Tony.

    That was a nice one, so satisfying when it clears and starts to run freely again. But man lifting the lid of the other (paved) manhole must have been Almost back breaking! You’d need a lifting mechanism to spare your back.

    Why aren’t the gully grids cleaned out by the customer as they all seemed to have stones in them, which will impede the flow of water coming down the drain pipes.

    If only the manhole covers had a diagram of the drains. Those covers with the bricks look to weigh a ton. 😳

      really good idea, but it would add to the cost. Each manhole cover would have to be custom made for the property it was on. But still a very interesting idea.

      @@drain-unblocker hey Tony. Painting a diagram on the lid is a 50/50 hit and miss if someone turns the lid around. Would be nice and generous if all plumbers were to mark the top of the inside of the manhole with arrows for in and outlets. Useful for when you get called back next time. Sue.👍

    I don't understand why you're not using a bigger hose and nozzle?!

    • @drain-unblocker
      @drain-unblocker  2 роки тому +2

      Hi Maureen the hose and nossle are good for domestic 4" drains. I use a worm nossle that is good at penetrating the blockage and puts out 30lt water per minute at 2000psi. Another consideration is that in my opinion I am less likely to damage already cracked drains. Some of the drains date back to victorian times. And of course the old maxim applies " its not how big but what you can do with it that counts".

    1) Центральный проток надо было немного фрезой прочистить, потому что от туда может выползти пробка, из бумаги и салфеток.

    @pauldurkee4764 2 роки тому

    Maybe it's just me, but the final manhole, with the block paving cover, the inlets are joining the main channel against the direction of flow instead of with it, that can't be helping matters.
