Vacuum excavation can eliminate the risk of harming underground utilities in these highly sensitive substations. Hitting a buried utility could result in costly damages, or even worse, fatal incidents. Not only is digging with a hydro vac truck the safest way to dig in these areas, but in many cases, it is required by state and federal regulations. Many substations are in heavily populated areas, making hydro excavation methods the responsible choice.

Hydro Excavation with a vac truck is the only way to dig in substations or distribution stations! Think of substations as the place where the power meets through pipelines and cables, either gas or electric, then gets redirected and distributed out to service the public through other pipelines and cables. We can use hose to reach areas that clients are unable to reach with conventional equipment. Hydro excavation offers a versatile method of digging, often in tight spaces. Sometimes the vac truck hose can be boomed over a fence to reach these areas.
