The Aqua Milling Process uses an air operated hose drive unit which rotates the high pressure through a hose protector allowing the high pressure nozzle to stand just off the internal pipe wall. The nozzle moves forward and around the internal circumference at the same time in a corkscrewing motion.

The Aqua Milling Process removes the encrustations from internal piping and vessels with the high density impact of water. The process is remotely controlled and can clean pipes and vessels from 5/8” to 15’ inside diameter, up to 1900 liner feet and up to twenty 90 degree changes in direction, under ideal conditions. Pipe work can be cleaned in the most complicated configurations; horizontal, vertical,or submerged and with minimal entry points.

For large scale projects POWERSTREAM can enlist the services of EURO-AQUA DRILL INC. who developed the Aqua Milling Process. EURO-AQUA DRILL INC. pride themselves with removing the toughest encrustations safely, meeting all their customers expectations.
