A Guide on Jet Vac Tankers

What Are Jet Vac Tankers?

A jet vac tanker is the general name that is given to any vehicle equipped with a powerful vacuum system. If your job or requirement involves removing liquid waste or emptying septic tanks, a jet vac tanker is essential to the operation. It is the ultimate multi-purpose vehicle that combines high-pressure jetting and suction pumps to help us complete a wide variety of cleaning tasks in just one visit.

A Jet Vac Tanker removes the build-up of silt and debris that sinks and collects at the bottom of drains and sewer pipes. If this build-up is not removed regularly, these materials will often solidify into a hard, rock-like substance that will reduce the water flow. High-pressure water is delivered from the tanker to help break up these difficult blockages and obstructions, which will then allow them to be vacuumed up into the tanker. A pump is used to create negative air pressure which gives the vacuum such extreme suction power, and the more powerful the pump, the more powerful the suction achieved by the vacuum. Their large storage capacities enable them to handle substantial amounts of liquids and waste in a single trip, which reduces the need for multiple trips which will ultimately save you time and money.

A Jet vac tanker is usually used where there has been flooding, and they are an essential tool to help get a blocked and unmanageable drainage system back up and running again in no time at all. In addition to this, the jet vac tanker can be used for other services including:

• Gully emptying
• De-silting and sewer cleaning
• Wet waste removal
• High-pressure jetting
• Root cutting and removal
• Liquid waste disposal
• Septic tank emptying
• Drain unblocking
• Tank cleaning
• Drain cleaning
