Sewerooter T-4 From General Pipe Cleaners Helps Plumbing Pro Clear Toughest Clogs
Major mall and department stores in New York’s Catskill region trust Twin County Plumbing & Heating to solve their most demanding drain cleaning problems. Owner Budd Stover has forged a 25-year reputation for excellence and dependability in professional plumbing and drain cleaning services.
About the Equipment
Budd Stover relies exclusively on General equipment, citing its ruggedness and reliability. Some of his General machines are over 20 years old and still perform exceptionally. He often rents equipment before purchasing, and that’s how he settled on the Sewerooter T-4 from General.
- Sewerooter T-4: Known as “The Mini-Rooter of root cutting machines,” it tackles tough clogs with matchless reliability. Features include:
- 75 ft. of 5/8” Flexicore® wire rope center cable for 3” to 6” lines, or 100 ft. of 9/16” cable for smaller lines.
- Lightweight, compact design with a narrow profile for tight spaces, stairs, and truck loading.
- Fold-down handle, truck loading wheel, and 10” semi-pneumatic tires for easy transport.
- Flexicore® cable: heavy-duty wire coiled around 49-strand aircraft-type wire rope, offering unmatched strength and flexibility with a one-year warranty.
- Automatic cable feed with variable speed (up to 16 feet per minute), reducing physical labor and keeping operators safe.
- Handylectric™: A hand-held machine introduced over 60 years ago, ideal for unclogging 1-1/4” to 3” lines in sinks, showers, toilets, and laundries.
- Power-Vee™: A newer hand-held tool with automatic feed, driving or retrieving cable at up to 16 ft. per minute for quick and easy use.
Performance Highlights
Stover first used the Sewerooter T-4 on a severe drain blockage at a major national discount chain store, where shoplifters had flushed plastic packaging and anti-theft devices, creating a major clog. The machine quickly cleared the line, and Stover subsequently used it on two more demanding jobs at other retailers. He praises its efficiency, noting that the automatic cable feed significantly reduces physical labor and fatigue.
Business Impact
While Twin County Plumbing & Heating handles residential jobs, its reputation is built on commercial work. The Sewerooter T-4 plays a key role in maintaining the company’s excellent standing. Stover highly recommends the machine to others in the industry.
