Abstract

See full text

An apparatus mounted on a vehicle frame for cleaning liquids and solids from a sub-surface enclosure. The apparatus comprises a water tank having a drain valve and a feed valve. A water pump is connected to the feed valve that supplies water to a high pressure cleaning device used for loosening waste solids in the sub-surface enclosure. A suction pump connected to a suction hose removes the waste from the sub-surface enclosure and directs it to either of two waste tanks through a valve configuration comprising an inlet valve connected to one waste tank and a second inlet valve connected to the other waste tank. The two inlet valves selectively allow the waste removed from the sub-surface enclosure to enter either the first waste tank, the second waste tank or both. A method for cleaning the sub-surface enclosure is also provided.
