    Rarely see this type of blockages in Sweden. I think it's because our wye junctions aren't exposed to open air as much. Nothing for the wipes to catch to in proper enclosed wyes, as opposed to the halfpipe wyes with lips and gritty surfaces we commonly see in UK manholes.

    Andy i think too stop the clients from flushing wipes down the toilet, you should show them that video joe did a year ago when he pulled out that huge mass of wipes to make them aware that this is why you should never use wipes because not only does it cause a huge blockage, it can cause damage to the drain as well, also andy the audio on the go pro you're using goes from okay to muffled (just a little), just making you aware, overall good job on the unblock 👍, ps don't blame the team for nicking your delver you were probably half asleep and forgot it again 😆

    I've been watching your videos for over a year and enjoy them a lot. It would be great to understand how the hoses work. Do they spray backwards and forwards and why does a blockage stay stuck when you use a little head and instantly unblock when you pop on the bigger head. Heya from the land down under.

    • @nickhill2223
      @nickhill2223 Рік тому

      Jetting nozzles spray the water backwards, in order to propel the Nozzle along the pipe. Looks like they are using a small 1/4" diameter hose to start with, if the put the 'Medium Nozzle' on, this connects to a 1/2" diameter hose in place of the Trigger handle. Bigger hose naturally will carry more water, making the Jet more powerful.
      You can get different nozzles for different applications, 'Forward facers' will spray forwards as well as backwards. 'Spinner' rotate at high speed to give a 360 degree clean, 'Warthogs' have nozzles pointing in all directions!

    Apparently alot of people no matter where they live do not know how to read ! 😮
    It states on the personal wipes, baby wipes, diapers,
    AND ALL FEMALE PERSONAL PRODUCTS PACKAGES TOO!
    But that's OK they all have the money to pay a sewer company to come over and pick that smelly shit up. We have bulavards here so are main sewer lines runs from the house to the big main pipes on the bulavards. That was quite expensive since the city water matenance man broke off our round steel cover off and We had to pay for a new one. It wasn't his fault we were told.
    I bet you have some days where either one of you would like to batch slap some home owners. Great job guys and I commend all of you for a quest job.
