B.L. Myers Bros. has state-of-the-art equipment and
services in air vacuum excavation systems. Now we can
punch out more potholes faster, in harder soil, than
ever before with the world’s most powerful air vacuum
excavation system. The high-velocity, supersonic air
that explodes the soil from within for easy vacuuming
and quick backfilling.
Vacuum excavation utilizes a high pressure air or water
stream to penetrate, expand and break-up soil. Loose
soil and rocks are simultaneously removed by a vacuum.
This technique is typically used to create a hole one to
two feet square and as deep as required to expose the
buried utility. When utilized properly the method is a
safe, non destructive means of excavation.
