Frequently Asked Questions

How often should a hydrovac debris tank be washed out?

Best practice is to wash out the debris tank after every dump. Residual material left in the tank adds weight, promotes corrosion, and can harden into difficult-to-remove deposits.

Can I use the truck water pump for tank washout?

Many trucks have a dedicated wash-down circuit tapped off the main pressure pump. Some operators use a separate low-volume wash pump to avoid wear on the main digging pump.
