Hydro Vacuum Excavation

Removing the Risk At CWW we recognize the benefits inherent to safe, expedient, and cost-effective excavations. Potentially striking underground utilities during construction activities demands prudent excavation techniques through the use of hand controlled shovels or specifically designed hydro excavating equipment.

Once Identified, Exposed Through hydro vacuum technology, underground utilities can be exposed by using pressurized water which liquefies the soil cover. The resulting residue is then drawn into a vacuum debris hose and stored in a debris tank positioned inside the Hydro Excavator.

Operation Under Any Condition CWW’s Hydro Vacuum Excavation fleet features a water boiling system which ensures all-season failsafe operation. In addition, CWW can undertake an excavation project in excess of 350’ from the excavation unit, and thaw and flush frozen and (or) blocked sewer ducts.

Under the Radar CWW’s Hydro Excavation fleet can serve a broad variety of customers. For residential customers, fence post holes can be created expediently in traditionally hard to reach places and in spite of potentially remote locations without disturbing surrounding landscaping. Further, our excavation units can be effectively and safely deployed when digging in close proximity to a building foundation, or in the repair or installation of a new weeping tile system. Yet another residential hydro vacuum excavation application is the repair or replacement of residential sewer and waterlines with minimal site disturbance and disruption.

A Reliable Solution for Every Sector In the service of municipalities, CWW’s hydro vacuum excavation units can manage small excavations including the repair or replacement of stand posts and water valve chambers. Municipalities can also count on CWW hydro vacuum excavation units for emergency water main repairs where the specific break can be rapidly exposed, and for the clean-up of the resulting flooded area. CWW provides these same services to its industrial and commercial (including heavy construction) customers.
