Drainage at the clean-out

If you have a main line clean-out, you have an additional way of verifying a sewer drain clog. Locate the clean-out if you do not already know where it is. Open the clean-out by either unscrewing or pulling to remove the cap. Check the clean-out for any waste or water that may be backing up there. Normally, no water should be coming up the clean-out pipe. If water is flowing up and out of the clean-out, or is standing in the pipe, this confirms you have a main line sewer stoppage.

While you can always do smaller pipe cleaning and maintenance on your own, it never hurts to have a trained Commercial Service technician come out and clean your drains regularly. If you want to set up a cleaning, or are in need of emergency service, call Commercial Service at 812-339-9114.
