The process of excavating rock

and soil to expose underground

utilities and pipelines.

Uses pressurized water to agitate

the earth, and a powerful vacuum

to remove the soil and debris.

Non-destructive method of

excavating which replaces a

conventional backhoe

and manual digging.

Page 5: Lonestar west  march 2014

Safer and faster than traditional

excavation methods when operating

around sensitive infrastructure.

because of onboard water heaters.
