Electro-mechanical Cleaning

Econo Rods Electro-mechanical cleaners vary in size according to the required task though the working principle of the units remain the same. An electrically driven motor self feeds a flexible metal cable (varied cutting attachments are used according to the required task), which propels along drainage runs from 13mm up to 225mm in diameter.

Electro-mechanical cleaning is the ideal method to clear a variety of blockages from areas such as waste runs from sinks, urinals, baths, showers, main drains, sewers and gullies, and vertical stack pipes. it is the ideal method for total descaling and root removal.

The large range of attachments available make the use of Electro-mechanical cleaning a highly efficient way of clearing blockages and when used to descale pipework or removing roots and the result is almost 100% effective, restoring full bore to pipework. Due to this high standard, Econo Rod always advise high pressure water jetting after the use of the electro-mechanical cleaning for descaling or tree roots due to the large volume of scale and debris left deposited within the pipework.
