I have never seen this before. Needless to say I did not run very much water down any of the drains.

WOW, disconnected from SEWER. As if water and electricity shut-off wasn't enough.

That'll force them to leave the house.

Hmmm, this is the first I've seen this.

How is it disconnected? Did they put a block in that cleanout? Never seen this? Will the water backup into the house?

Guess I didn't know you could "disconnect" a sewer connection.

I'd like to see a photo of what they considered "disconnected"

I imagine they put an expandable pig down in the cleanout Steven.

MULTI SIZE PNEUMATIC PIPE PLUGS
Multi Size Pneumatic Pipe Plugs are designed for use in a wide variety of pipe types and styles as well as job requirements. Some advantages would include:
Not needing to know the exact pipe size Will work in a variety of pipe sizes Will seal most slightly out of round pipes Excellent for standard low pressure air testing. Contractor Ready air test package available.
Use also for blocking or leak locating Standard multi sizes from 4" to 96"
