When our team was approached by a large housing developer with a unique excavation challenge, we saw it as the perfect opportunity to utilise our new VAC-EX AIR-VAC. We needed to locate a 6-inch gas main running through a new development plot, requiring precise excavation in order to determine its exact location and assess its impact on construction plans.
Located on old farmland, the site was intended for the construction of 65 homes, with the gas main servicing houses across the area. In order for construction to continue on schedule, it was crucial for our work to be fast, accurate, and unobtrusive.
We utilised a VAC-EX AIR-VAC for this job, a cutting-edge piece of equipment designed for safe excavation and the location of hidden services. Boasting a compact and agile design, the AIR-VAC allowed us to access tight and confined spaces that were previously inaccessible with larger vacuum excavators. Our team were able to quickly excavate a 35-metre long trench across the property, searching for the 6-inch gas main.
The VAC-EX's advanced turbine and filtration system ensured a thorough excavation while minimising the risk of damaging existing services.
Our mini-tracked VAC-EX proved to be a time and cost-saving solution for the project. Its compact size and powerful vacuum technology allowed us to swiftly locate the gas main, reducing excavation time and eliminating the risk of service strikes for the client.
