HYDROVAC TRUCKS

A hydrovac truck, short for hydro excavation truck, is a specialized vehicle used for excavating and exposing underground utilities and pipelines by using a combination of high-pressure water and a vacuum system. It typically consists of a water tank, a high-pressure water pump, a hose, and a debris tank equipped with a powerful vacuum. The process involves injecting pressurized water into the ground to break up soil, which is then simultaneously vacuumed into the debris tank. Hydrovac trucks are used in construction, utility maintenance, and excavation projects where precision and safety are crucial. This technology is less likely to damage underground utilities compared to traditional mechanical excavation methods, making it an efficient and safe solution for digging in areas with buried infrastructure.
