Why Televise

Fix What's Broken. Skip What Isn't.

Televising tells you which lines need repair, which can wait, and which are fine, so your repair dollars go where they matter. Paired with cleaning on a multi-year program, it is the most complete record of your system you can have.

  • Find problems before backupsRoots, cracks and sags caught early.
  • Plan and bid with confidenceNASSCO reports engineers can use directly.
  • Locked rates on a programNo emergency rates and no price increases for the term.

Questions

Sewer Televising FAQ

What is sewer CCTV inspection?

Sewer CCTV inspection, or sewer televising, sends a remote camera through the pipe to record its condition. The operator codes every defect, from roots and cracks to offsets and sags, so you know exactly what is in the line before you repair, line or replace it.

What size pipe can you televise?

We televise sanitary and storm sewer from 6 inches up to 120 inches with mainline crawlers, and smaller service lines with push cameras and lateral launch cameras.

Are your operators NASSCO certified?

Yes. Our operators are NASSCO PACP, LACP and MACP certified, and every inspection is coded to NASSCO standards so engineers can use it for planning and bid documents.

What is a lateral launch inspection?

A lateral launch camera rides on the mainline crawler and launches into each service connection, inspecting up to 150 feet into the lateral without digging or entering the home.

Do you clean the line before televising?

When the line needs it. Our jet/vac crews clean first so the camera sees the pipe, not the debris. Most city programs pair cleaning and televising.

What do we receive after the inspection?

Line-by-line televising reports with 4K still images and NASSCO codes, plus full video. Video and reports are stored in POSM Central and can be shared, downloaded and tied to Diamond Maps.

Can televising find inflow and infiltration?

Yes. Running water, infiltration and defects that let groundwater in show up on video and in the coded report, which helps track down I&I.

Where do you provide sewer televising?

We are based in Kensington, Minnesota and televise sewer for cities, engineers, contractors and farms across Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota.
