AIR VACUUM EXCAVATION EQUIPMENT


Gregg Drilling & Testing, Inc. now has the state-of-the-art in air vacuum excavation systems. This new air vacuum equipment is the most powerful air vacuum excavation system and lets you punch out potholes faster, in harder soil than other systems.  The system works by exploding the soil from within by using high-velocity, supersonic air. 

 
 

The vacuum excavation system utilizes kinetic energy in a high velocity air stream to penetrate, expand, and break up soil.  The loosened chunks of soil and rocks are then removed from the hole with a powerful vacuum and are ready for quick backfilling.  This system offers higher performance in most soils, which means greater efficiency and lower cost for our clients.  Let Gregg Drilling demonstrate how air vacuum excavation turns a backbreaking and dangerous job into a fast, simple, safe, and cost-effective process.

The high-pressure, high-volume air combined with the Air-TecTM nozzle breaks up the hardest soils in record time.
