The Benefits of Our GapVax HV-55 and HV-56 Trucks
At Ecotech, our high-powered GapVax HV-55 and HV-56 vacuum excavators utilize both hydro and air excavation, ensuring the safest way to expose utilities without the risk of damage or injury.
The Versatility of Ecotech
From substation excavations to fruit spill cleanups, there is nothing our team can’t conquer! Our innovative technology using vacuum excavation has allowed us to remove an overturned truck loaded with fruit from marshlands while also completing the job with minimal disturbance to the ground. The vacuum technology of our trucks creates innovative solutions to minimize the damage of properties and the environment. This holds true for the sinkholes and the milk spill we worked to help clean and repair. We never know what interesting jobs we might be called to!

Taking Customer Satisfaction to a New Level
For Lori Mendez—Business Development Manager of Ecotech—customer service is a day in, day out, ongoing, compassionate activity. “Customer service is the key to building and growing any business,” Lori says. “It has always been and will always be one of the most important competitive advantages a business can have!”
Ecotech Participating in Upcoming Safety Day Events
Ecotech Hydro Excavation will be exhibiting at the upcoming PA Safety Day Conferences with PA One Call. The PA Safety Day Conferences are the largest one-day events of their kind for the construction industry in Pennsylvania!
Ecotech and Sinkholes: Lower Cost, Less Disruption
Utilities or naturally occurring events have the ability to form voids several feet underground. Water will continue to flow into these voids, eroding the soil below. After a period of time, the ground will collapse—thus creating a sinkhole. These sinkholes can be relatively small, but they also have the potential to be very disastrous. Ecotech Hydro Excavation is fully prepared to assist with sinkhole restoration—creating both lower costs and less disruption.
Safety Training Measures at Ecotech Hydro Excavation
Director of Safety—Chad Breneman
Ecotech Hydro Excavation’s Director of Safety Chad Breneman comes from over 20 years working in the residential construction field. Through training and field experience at Ecotech, Chad was able to see that the safety policies were put in place to make sure none of the team was in danger—especially when working near 230,000 volts of electricity.
Preventing Hand Injuries
Annual Hand Injuries
Each year, more than one million hand injuries place workers in the ER. Additionally, there are more than 110,000 recorded lost-time hand injuries on a yearly basis. Unfortunately, 70% of the emergency room incidences are a result of not wearing protective gloves on the job, while the other 30% of these injuries are caused by not wearing the correct type of gloves.
