In a flat in Fener, an elderly couple could not get rid of the smell coming from their kitchen drain. They thought about pouring in a chemical drain opener, but they did not know how the old pipe would react to it, so they decided against it. The camera inspection showed us where the sediment had built up, and only then did we talk about the method.

In the terraced houses on the slopes of Balat and Fener, and in the commercial buildings of Aksaray and Laleli, the plumbing has been renovated by different tradespeople, so old and new parts are mixed together. Old cast iron and clay pipes become rough on the inside and hold sediment, so where the line actually runs can often only be understood with a camera.

In the guest houses around Sultanahmet, the hans around the Grand Bazaar and the fish restaurants of Kumkapı, a blockage is often in more than one place. Hardened frying oil in a restaurant kitchen can close off the line. Because breaking the floor is not possible in historic buildings, the problem is first located with a camera and the unclogging is done from the inside.
