Default Sewage Backing Up Into Shower, But Basement Drains Are Clear

This head looked like a "C" with teeth on each half. A pretty good

water would receed, but then when he reversed to pull it back through, the
water would pull back. That 5' section of muck is just too thick I guess.

The camera was able to poke through it to go through the entire line to
the city sewer but it seems to form around any cable and seal itself.

Which is why a power flush is necessary, to push this all through into the
city sewer.

Which should be accomplished in less than 12 hours, hopefully!
