When Vacuum Excavation is a Necessity

• A vacuum excavation process has many different
  uses and applications, but its important to
  remember that not all vacuum excavation jobs are
  created equal. Some jobs require the use of an
  experienced vacuum excavation expert, while
  others can be handled by any company with the
  right equipment and experience in general
  excavation methods. Whether you need to hire a
  vacuum excavation expert or not depends on the
  particular job youre working on, so here are
  some things to consider before you choose whether
  or not to hire a specialist.

When Can You Use Vacuum Excavation?

• What kind of excavation project calls for vacuum
  excavation? It all depends on what youre looking
  to do. If you need to get rid of asbestos, then
  vacuum excavation may be your best betthe EPA
  classifies it as a non-destructive method of
  asbestos abatement. This process involves sucking
  up contaminated materials and transporting them
  to an offsite disposal location. Be sure to work
  with professionals who are certified following
  local and state regulations, as there are strict
  codes that must be followed during any asbestos
  abatement procedure. Another reason why
  professional vacuuming might come in handy
  vandals have been known to pour gasoline into
  underground tanks and blow them up with TNT,
  which can cause contamination in nearby soil.

How Does a Vacuum Excavator Work?
Vacuum excavators work in much the same way as
other types of heavy construction equipment
theyre used to break down and move large
quantities of material.

Advantages of Using Vacuum Excavators?

• There are two main things that separate vacuum
  excavators from other construction machines,
  however how they get their power and how they
  dig. While most machines rely on diesel or
  gasoline engines to generate power, vacuum
  excavators run primarily on electricity generated
  by in-truck generators. And while most machines
  use buckets to break up the earth and remove it,
  vacuum excavators have blowers that suck up loose
  soil through an extension tube and suck down
  solid rock through a hollow cutting head.

When it comes to removing large amounts of earth
and other materials efficiently, there are few
better options than vacuum excavation. Unlike
some methods of excavation that require ripping
apart roads and other property, vacuum excavation
can be used to remove large quantities of
material without causing any damage to nearby
structures. The material will be removed from
wherever its located even if that means deep
within a manhole or sewer tunnel then disposed
of so it doesnt become an issue later on.

How to Use a Vacuum Excavator Correctly

The Right Way to Use a Vacuum Excavator Correctly
Is Important for Safety and Quality
Tractor-pulled vacuum excavation is an
increasingly common way to dig hard soil in a
place where old-fashioned power equipment may
damage your driveway or home. To make sure youre
getting good service, you must understand how to
use one correctly. Here are some pointers.

The Importance of Safety Equipment

• When excavating, its important to follow all
  safety protocols. One mistake can be devastating,
  as contractors who work with heavy machinery know
  all too well.

How to avoid accidents when digging with a vacuum
excavator

• By taking extra care and using protective gear,
  you can prevent injuryand expensive accidents
  from occurring. Here are just a few of your
  options for safe excavation On-site Protection
  Anyone working on a project needs to wear durable
  shoes that protect against damage caused by tools
  or falling objects. Furthermore, hearing
  protection protects your ears from potential
  damage caused by loud equipment. Always wear eye
  protection when on-site not only will it help
  avoid temporary blindness but also significantly
  reduce overall injuries caused by flying debris
  in case of an accident. The industry standard
  includes goggles, face shields, and earmuffs.
  Respiratory protection is also recommended when
  dealing with harmful materials or particles
  (read dirt). Small particulates will have an
  easier time entering your respiratory system
  without proper coveragewhich can quickly lead to
  illness if left untreated long enough!

When you are hiring a company to dig, you must
understand your potential risks. Accidents can
happen even if youre hiring professionals, but
there are some precautionary measures you can
take.

• When using heavy machinery like vacuum
  excavators, you need to keep certain things in
  mind to ensure your safety. Here are three of
  them What steps must be taken before digging
  begins? Digging out dirt isnt dangerous as long
  as you know what youre doing. But it does
  involve physically demanding work and for most
  people, digging will lead to some sort of
  physical fatigue or exhaustion. Fatigue may cause
  accidents therefore, anyone involved should
  avoid being overly tired when digging occursnot
  only do they increase their risk of injury, they
  might accidentally make mistakes that could have
  been avoided otherwise.
