rM200 Camera System The rM200 Camera System combines portability with the versatility of the D2 drum series, offering different combinations of push cable stiffness and spring flexibility to tackle any inspection job.

The rM200 comes with your choice of drum - D2A or D2B - letting you pick the drum that will fit your needs. Each drum can be purchased separately, allowing for quick and easy to interchange while on the job. The wheels and handle make the system easily portable, as does the ability to dock the CS6 or CS65 for transport, operation, or storage.

If you are looking to purchase a Ridgid camera system, contact Roto-Rooter Customer Service at 877-256-1767.

Get Consistent Branding and Add Value to Your Business with Custom-Label Restoration Products from Jon-Don

Marketing experts agree: the more often you can put a consistent brand image in front of your customer, the stronger your brand identity will be.

Consistent branding:• Drives authority and builds trust• Sets you apart from the competition• Creates consumer awareness and builds loyalty• Allows people to more quickly and easily recognize (and remember) your products

and services

Think of it like a hammer hitting a nail over and over again, driving your business’s name deep into your customer’s mind.

A logo on your truck. BAM. A logo on your website. BAM. A logo on your business cards. BAM.

But why stop there?

These top-performing restoration products do double duty for your business – performing their primary purpose (disinfection or protection) as well as promoting a professional, consistent image.

These aren’t cheap stickers that peel off or discolor over time, by the way. The Roto-Rooter logo has been integrated into the label artwork and professionally printed, ensuring a sleek, high-quality appearance.

And get this—there’s no additional charge for the custom branding. You can get the restoration products you love with custom Roto-Rooter branding for a great low price.

New and Improved Pipe ShieldThe Product You Love in the Bottle You WantAlthough Pipe Shield is a popular Roto-Rooter product, we received feedback with improvements that could be made. You asked and we answered. Read below for the answers to a couple of frequently asked questions.

1. Question: What is different about the new Pipe Shield bottle?Answer: The big differences between the old design and the new one are the handle and the cap. The handle is larger and angled, allowing for easier carrying and pouring. The outer cap doubles as a measuring cup, making it easy to mix the solution without waste.

2. Question: Has the formula changed?Answer: The only changes to the formula are the strength of the product that makes it more effective and the new fragrance. But the things you love about the product are still the same - it still contains no solvents, acids or caustic ingredients, so your copper, PVC or iron drains won’t be harmed no matter how often you use it.
