Importance of Vacuum Excavation Services

SOUTH WENTWORTHVILLE, Australia - Dec. 14, 2021 - PRLog -- One of the many challenges encountered in the gasoline, water, electric, and telephone industries is the underground excavation process for installing wires, pipes, and other utility infrastructure components.

All such problems could be avoided by simply using advanced vacuum excavation techniques. Furthermore, vacuum excavation services can be used for these types of digging jobs in addition to many other everyday activities, e.g. suctioning.

Highly Efficient Excavation

Vacuum excavation equipment is state-of-the-art, but it is easy to set up. With the help of experienced professionals, it can rapidly dig without the hazard of damaging any sub-surface utility equipment. Vacuum excavation uses a powerful vacuum and water jet system with a suction nozzle or tube to break up the soil and efficiently remove loosened material from the ground. Such an excavation method is the best way to locate underground utilities and avoid accidental damage safely.

More Accurate Digging Process

Generally, there are two types of excavation processes, vacuum and hydro. Broadly speaking, these processes utilize either high-pressure water or air jets to break up and loosen soil and vacuum the result into the tank. The process begins by using a high-pressure water jet or compressed air lance to break up or crush the ground instead of using a traditional pick and shovel. Once the ground has been loosened, the soil that has been dug up will be removed via the suction pipe and into the conveyor tank of the vacuum truck. The result will be more accurate and precise holes than a mechanical excavator, e.g. backhoe or even the more challenging process of manual excavation.

Key Advantages of Using Vacuum Excavation Services

Vacuum excavation services offer various unique advantages over traditional digging methods to locate existing utilities. These advantages include (but are not limited to) the following:

• Locate underground utilities most safely and efficiently.
• Versatile to use on all underground utilities.
• Prevent damage to underground pipes.
• Cost-effective.
• Uncluttered worksite and minor traffic inconvenience.
• Increased job site productivity.
• Easy removal of various types of materials, e.g. stony, muddy, wet, dry, etc.
• No need for manual, labour-intensive excavation.
• Only one machine is required for the extraction and transportation of debris.
• Enhanced safety results in lower insurance costs for construction companies and contractors.

Virtually every day, contractors from a wide range of municipalities across the country excavate the ground's sub-surface to install underground facilities and/or locate existing underground electric lines, telephone lines, or pipelines for maintenance and repair. This process used to be time-consuming, tedious, and very risky for many reasons. But thanks to vacuum excavation services, excavation and underground utility locating is now safer and faster than ever.
