More than 9 million lead service lines remain in use across the U.S. Federal funding and compliance deadlines have made replacement a top municipal priority. Cities need methods that are safe, fast and precise without disrupting neighborhoods or creating costly restoration bills. Traditional mechanical digging just doesn’t meet the challenge.

Hydroexcavation has become the preferred method for lead pipe abatement, and TRUVAC is a market leader in purpose-built equipment designed for this exact work. Municipalities and contractors are turning to TRUVAC to meet deadlines, protect communities and deliver better results.
