The flow Maxx is the last filter you will ever invest in!
The Flow Maxx Vacuum Filter is a high-performance Hydrovac air filtration system designed to protect blowers, improve airflow, and dramatically reduce operating costs.
Unlike standard Hydrovac air filters that clog quickly, restrict airflow, and require frequent replacement, Flow Maxx is engineered for maximum airflow, extended service life, and measurable return on investment across the life of the truck.
Most Hydrovac air filters are treated like consumables:
buy it → clog it → replace it → repeat.
The Flow Maxx Vacuum Filter changes that entire equation.
By reducing restriction while effectively capturing contaminants, Flow Maxx protects the blower and air system, improves cooling, and allows the truck to work more efficiently with less strain.
Designed for operators, fleet managers, and owners who care about uptime and operating costs, Flow Maxx delivers longer service intervals, easier maintenance, and lower total cost of ownership.
-
Blower Protection You Can Trust
Captures dust, fines, and airborne debris before they ever reach the hydrovac blower or internal components. -
Higher Airflow & Stronger Suction (Up to 30%)
Reduced restriction allows the blower to move air more efficiently, delivering faster excavation and more consistent performance. -
Less Downtime, Fewer Interruptions
Fewer clogs and reduced blower stress mean fewer breakdowns, fewer service calls, and more productive workdays. -
Improved Cooling & Lower Operating Temperatures
Increased airflow helps manage heat more effectively, reducing heat-related wear and system strain. -
Extended Blower & System Life
Cleaner air and lower restriction reduce tar buildup, internal wear, and premature blower failure. -
Up to 15% Fuel Savings in PTO Mode
Less restriction means less engine load — delivering significant fuel savings over the course of a year. -
Heavy-Duty Sealing – Zero Bypass
Engineered with an industrial-grade seal stronger than any filter on the market, preventing bypass even at bends and deflection points. -
Dual Perforated Stainless-Steel Shields
Heavy-duty perforated stainless-steel shields stop large debris before it reaches the blower and will not stretch, tear, or blow holes over time. -
Operator-Friendly Serviceability
Designed for fast inspection and cleaning so filters are maintained properly and on schedule. -
Drop-Resistant Design
Built to withstand accidental drops without crushing or deforming the seal. -
100% Rust & Oxidation Resistant
Constructed entirely from stainless steel for extreme durability and corrosion resistance. -
Chemical Resistant
Safe for jobs involving chemical exposure. Fully cleanable and reusable. -
Dries in Minutes
Stainless steel media does not retain moisture and dries in approximately five minutes.

5-Year Cost of Ownership
Standard Air Filters (5 years):
$4,800 – $6,400
Flow Maxx Vacuum Filter (5 years):
$1,500 – $1,900
With Flow Maxx $3,300 – $4,500 saved per truck in filter replacement alone.
Performance ROI Beyond Filter Life
Flow Maxx doesn’t just last longer, it improves the entire Hydrovac air system.
Up to 15% Fuel Savings in PTO Mode
Less airflow restriction reduces engine and blower load.
Example:
- Approximately $750 in fuel savings per month with the Flow Maxx
- Up to $9000 saved per year
For many operators, fuel savings alone can pay for Flow Maxx in months.
Up to 30% Better Airflow & Suction
- Faster excavation
- Increased productivity
- More consistent performance
- Less horsepower demand for the same work output
Better Cooling & Reduced Wear
Flow Maxx helps reduce:
- Heat buildup
- Tar accumulation
- Blower strain
Flow Maxx is not a disposable air filter — it’s a long-term hydrovac performance upgrade.
- Up to 8× longer service life
- 70–85% lower monthly filter cost
- Up to 15% fuel savings
- 30% better airflow and suction

What is the Flow Maxx Vacuum Filter designed for?
- The Flow Maxx Vacuum Filter is designed to protect hydrovac blower systems by capturing dust, fines, and airborne debris before they reach the blower. It helps maintain airflow, reduce wear, and improve overall truck performance.
How is Flow Maxx different from standard hydrovac air filters?
- Unlike traditional disposable filters, Flow Maxx is a heavy-duty, reusable air filter engineered for maximum airflow and extended service life. It lasts up to 8× longer, resists damage, and delivers significantly lower cost of ownership.
Will the Flow Maxx Vacuum Filter restrict airflow?
- No. Flow Maxx is specifically designed to reduce restriction compared to standard filters. Improved airflow allows the blower to operate more efficiently, resulting in stronger suction and better cooling.
How often does the Flow Maxx Vacuum Filter need to be serviced?
- Service intervals depend on job conditions, but Flow Maxx typically requires far less frequent servicing than conventional filters. Operators should inspect it regularly and clean it as needed when airflow reduction is noticed.
Can the Flow Maxx Vacuum Filter really save fuel?
- Yes. Reduced airflow restriction lowers engine and blower load, which can result in up to 15% fuel savings in PTO mode, delivering substantial cost savings over the course of a year.
What protects the blower if large debris is ingested?
- Flow Maxx features dual heavy-duty perforated stainless steel shields on both sides of the filter. These shields stop large debris before it can reach the blower, unlike traditional filters that rely on thin wire screens which can tear or blow out over time.
Can anything bypass the filter and damage the blower?
Solution: Dig Pig Nozzles have a smaller water exit hole, a harder cover, and stronger carbides, allowing you to dig close to the ground without excessive wear.
Is the Flow Maxx Vacuum Filter resistant to drops and jobsite abuse?
- Yes. The filter is designed to be drop-resistant and rugged enough for real jobsite conditions. Accidental drops will not crush the seal or deform the filter, eliminating unnecessary replacements.
What happens if the filter is exposed to water or chemicals?
- Flow Maxx is 100% stainless steel and fully resistant to rust, oxidation, and chemical exposure. It can be thoroughly cleaned after chemical jobs without contamination and will not degrade from chemical contact.
How long does it take for the Flow Maxx Vacuum Filter to dry?
- The stainless steel media does not retain moisture. The filter can be air-dried or vacuum-dried in approximately five minutes, eliminating the need to keep multiple filters on hand.
