About hydrovacs

Hydrovacs are a valuable piece of equipment that many workers rely on heavily. Using a hydraulic system, hydrovacs dispel water from a mounted tank and use it to break the ground’s surface. Next, they utilize a high-capacity vacuum to remove debris and clean the area. Hydrovacs are used for infrastructural work and for digging and tunneling in the gas and oil industries. 

Hydrovacs work with impressive precision, making the digging process nondestructive and saving repair time. Safer than other excavation methods, hydrovacs are equipped with features like 360 cameras, boom sensors, and emergency shut-offs. At Summit Truck Equipment, we sell hydrovacs that are capable of completing tasks with unparalleled exactness. 

Customers trust Summit Truck Equipment to sell smooth–running equipment, offer incredible service, and even provide financial guidance. Contact us today to purchase a truck, repair a vehicle, or learn about our convenient financing options. 

FAQs

What capacity do hydrovacs have?

Hydrovacs come in a range of sizes. Hydrovacs may be able to carry up to 2000 gallons of water, but some trucks hold only 500 gallons. 

Which industries use hydrovac trucks?

These multifunctional trucks are used in industries like oil and gas, construction, utilities, and municipal services. 

What are hydrovacs used for?

Hydrovacs are a safer, quicker excavation method than tools like shovels and backhoes. Hydrovacs are used for potholing, open trenching, spill cleanups, work on utility lines, and more.
