Introduction to Sewer Manhole Inspections

Sewer Manhole Inspections can be used to streamline the inspection of sewer manholes.

Repairing, rehabilitating, or replacing manholes are large expenses for sewer utilities. The consequences of manhole asset failures are significant and may impact the proper function of sewers resulting in sewage leaks or overflows. Sewer utilities can reduce operation and maintenance costs by implementing a routine underground inspection program that identifies defects and safety issues before an asset fails.

The Sewer Manhole Inspections solution delivers a set of capabilities that help utilities conduct routine manhole inspections, understand manhole conditions, record manhole inspections in the field, and ensure the entire organization has access to inspection information.
