What is Hydro Excavation?

Hydrovacs are quite simply the safest way to dig around buried utilities and infrastructure. Hydro excavation is a non-destructive process that replaces backhoes or hand-digging to expose underground lines quickly and safely. Hydrovacs use pressurized water (hydro) and a powerful vacuum system (vac) to remove soil without damaging even the most sensitive facilities, including fiber optic cables, electrical lines, and PVC pipe.

Hydro excavation continues to gain recognition as the best practice for uncovering facilities, especially in congested or frozen grounds. Tornado Technologies Inc. leads the way with the industry’s safest, most productive and user-friendly Hydrovac available.
