A home and business is a complex system of piping, sewer lines, water management systems, etc. Treating this system like a natural ecosystem can help the system remain in pristine condition. Using more sustainable practices not only helps save your sewer line from damage but also keeps the surrounding environment healthy.
Utilizing eco-friendly practices is becoming more important to homeowners and business owners. Our professional team at Drain X works to learn more about modern implementations and technology to make our business more sustainable.
1- Trenchless Technology
Minimizing the amount of excavation that is required for repairs is an eco-friendly practice. Tearing up a yard, sidewalk, or surrounding landscaping can affect the environment for years to come. Trenchless technology reduces environmental footprint but also limits the risk of damage to the system. Pipe lining and pipe bursting (breaking the old pipe while simultaneously sliding the new one into place), will help keep sewer line repair eco-friendly.
2- Hydro-Jetting For Cleaning
Using a high-pressure stream of water to annually clean your sewer system will lower the need for large repairs in the future. Hydro-jetting can use warm or cold water to help blast away clogs. Using hydro-jetting negates the need for toxic chemical cleaners as well. If professional plumbers want to become more environmentally friendly, offering hydro-jetting is a great way to do that. This technique provides benefits to the plumber and the homeowner.
3- Electronic Or Hybrid Machines For Repairs
Plumbers and sewer experts are switching to more efficient machinery to help improve the cleanliness of sewer lines. These machines now consume less energy, reduce your carbon footprint, and result in better repairs. Hybrid machines can help streamline the work for plumbers to improve customer satisfaction.
4- Water Recycling Systems
Implementing more systems that recycle natural resources helps to prevent overconsumption and damage to the earth. During sewer services, using water recycling systems can reduce our overall consumption of water for our homes. Recycling water is essential for homes and businesses in hotter climates.
Another easy way to recycle water for your plumbing or sewer needs is to collect stormwater. Stormwater is runoff from rain and snow that comes from parking lots, gutters, and more. Collecting stormwater with collection boxes can help sanitize the rainwater to be used for watering, cleaning, or sewer system flushing. Plumbers who want to promote more sustainable practices should adopt water recycling or stormwater collection.
5- Sewer Cameras For Inspections
Using sewer cameras helps to limit soil displacement that can come from sewer repairs. Accessing your sewer lines used to require digging up your yard to open up the pipes and inspect for damage. Sewer cameras can now help plumbers see clogs, damages, or misconnections without damaging the landscape. Digging and removing soil can cause the land to shift and disrupt ecosystems.
Cameras not only help plumbers remain eco-friendly but also allow them to better provide services to customers. Using a camera is quicker than digging up to inspect your sewer. By utilizing camera and video inspection, repairs can be made quickly and efficiently.
6- Sensors And Monitors To Detect Damage
Smart sensors can help home and business owners stay on top of maintenance. Installing sensors in a sewer system will alert you about leaks, clogs, or other issues as soon as they occur. Detecting issues as soon as they happen will ensure better longevity of a sewer line while also reducing expensive repairs.
