Hydro Excavation (Hydro-Vac, Daylighting)
- Precision excavation requiring minimal site restoration
- Expose (Daylight) buried infrastructure without damage
- Pipeline repairs and inspections
- Daylight prior to drilling to ensure no utilities intersection, rupture, or line strike
- Reduced “footprint” compared to hydraulic excavator or backhoe.
Jet Vac Truck
The Jet Vac truck combines a very powerful vacuum with a high pressure water jetting system.
On its own the vacuum will remove material from the ground or a culvert.
The simultaneous use of high pressure water with the vacuum permits hydro-excavation which is fast and safe around buried utilities.
Applications
Locating (daylighting) buried utilities,
precision excavations to avoid buried utilities,
slot trenching
and spill clean-up.
KJV has effectively cleaned up
wood chips, grain and crumbed rubber
from spill sites effectively and environmentally responsible.
Benefits
Risk reduction — water is far less destructive than steel backhoe buckets!
Cost reduction — by reducing an excavation’s footprint, restoration and paving costs are minimized.
Time savings — smaller precision excavations typically need less time than larger ones.
