Sewer Scope

This video is (depending on your point of view) either gross, or hilarious, or just a little boring and weird.

We’re buying 2 houses. The first house, out in the country with a septic system, failed the septic inspection and now they are laboring to put a new one in. It’s been painful to watch, as they tear up the landscape with backhoes.

The second house, in the city, has a sewer pipe to the city system. To ensure the integrity of the sewer line from the house, they run a camera down it and film a video. Seriously.  Poop, cockroaches and all.

When buying houses, making sure the poop goes away is important! The very first rental I ever owned, back in the late 1990’s, ended up with raw sewage in the backyard. So from then on I’ve known, poop transport matters!
