Jet Vac Whale Tanker

Jet Vac Whale Tanker

UBU Environmental Ltd has the specialist equipment and qualified personnel necessary to enable the cleaning and removal of waste from drains, sewers, interceptors and lagoons. CCTV drain and sewer surveys allow UBU to quickly identify the reason for the problem, allowing for informed recommendations. Our tanker units enable us to remove large volumes of liquid waste quickly and efficiently.

Our Jetter recycling units have the capability to operate as an air mover or conventional vacuum unit together with the continuous recycling of jetting water. This enables the unit to spend more time on the cleaning process before replenishing the jetting water. Our greener machines result in less time off the job, saving you both time and money. 

The Jet Vac Whale Tanker offers high performance jetting for difficult cleaning applications. It features a large liquid ring vacuum pump for exceptionally powerful vacuum loading, enabling lifting of liquid and dry waste from depths beyond 30 metres (vertical) and further (horizontal) by pneumatic conveyance. 

UBU Ltd is a member of the Water Jetting Association, following their stringent Codes of Practice regarding health and safety.

Jet Vac Whale Tanker Services

The Jet Vac Whale Tanker is used to remove the build-up of silt or debris that sinks and collects at the bottom of sewer pipes. If not extracted regularly, these materials solidify into a rock-like substance, blocking the pipe and reducing the flow capacity of the system. Additionally, construction materials such as grout, sealant and rubble sometimes enter drains and can end up causing blockages.

High pressure water is delivered from the tanker to break up difficult blockages or obstructions, in areas such as pipes, drains, sewers, gullies, septic tanks, soakaways, grease traps and interceptors. 

The high-pressure jets break up the debris/blockage, allowing it to be vacuumed into the Jet Vac Whale Tanker. If large volumes of wastewater are removed the waste can be processed on site at UBU Environmental, if you don’t have the facilities for treatment on site.

UBU Environmental Ltd are the only Road Sweeper Company with an approved treatment and safe disposal site in the North West.
