What is a Turnkey Jetting Van?

Rioned’s turnkey jetting van solutions include the comprehensive overhaul of a standard 3.5t van to create operation-ready drainage vehicles.

At Rioned, our dedicated technicians go above and beyond to fulfil customer specifications when it comes to jetter installations and vehicle conversions. We offer a comprehensive array of interior and exterior vehicle enhancements, including installations of waterproof bulkheads, linings and flooring, custom storage solutions, DC to AC inverters, UV lighting setups and welfare equipment. We also provide exterior branding and signage services to complete the transformation.

Finance is available for new vehicles, jetting machines, vehicle conversions and ancillary equipment. We can either supply the new vehicle or undertake customisations of a client’s existing vehicle.

The Jetting Van Conversion Process

All vehicle conversions are carried out by our experienced professionals strictly adhering to water industry standards and ensuring full compliance with health and safety regulations


Van-Lining-Materials

Van Lining Materials

Our skilled technicians initiate the van conversion by removing the interior lining and implementing a new lining system. This lining serves multiple purposes, including weight reduction, waterproofing, and thermal insulation:

  • Spray Linings: This lining material provides a lightweight, waterproof protective coating for the interior of the van. 

  • Composite Boards: Composite boards are durable and lightweight, offering excellent structural support and thermal resistance.

  • Aluminium Checker-Plate: Known for its robustness and ability to withstand wear and tear, it is an ideal choice for heavy-duty applications such as flooring.
Rioned-Invertor

Inverter Installations

In modern drainage vehicles, power inverters play a crucial role in converting the direct current (DC) power from the vehicle's battery into alternating current (AC). This enables contractors to utilise various tools and equipment that operate on 110v or 240v AC power or rechargeable batteries. The power inverter acts as a bridge, allowing the vehicle's battery power to be used to power a diverse range of equipment, including:

  • Inspection equipment such as CCTV cameras and sewer inspection systems

  • Electric power tools such as drills, saws, and pumps

  • Light and heating to maintain a comfortable working environment within the van

Turnkey-Storage-Options

Storage Options

We recognise the impact of vehicle load weight and distribution on road handling and fuel efficiency. Our technicians strategically install lightweight storage units to offer optimal weight distribution while providing ample storage capacity for a range of drainage tools and equipment. Our comprehensive storage solutions encompass:

  • Metal Racking and Shelving:  Designed to withstand the demands of drainage operations and allow for easy access

  • Storage and Heated Lockers: We install lockers specifically designed for the secure storage of valuables, or heated lockers for temperature-sensitive equipment or drying.

  • Monitor Desks and Drawer Arrangements: Enabling the integration of monitors and control panels while offering convenient storage for accessories and supplies.
Turnkey-Lighting-Options

Van Lighting

We offer a selection of high-performance lighting solutions designed to enhance visibility and safety for drainage contractors, particularly in low-light conditions. We prioritize both productivity and safety by ensuring a well-illuminated working area. Our lighting installations incorporate efficient, low-energy LED lights:

  • Lamps and Lightbars: Internal lighting solutions in the form of lamps and lightbars that can be installed within the vehicle. 

  • Work Lamps and Lightbars: External lighting systems can be strategically mounted on the vehicle exterior enabling contractors to work safely and effectively, even in challenging environments.

  • Flashing Beacons: To enhance visibility and draw attention to the presence of drainage vehicles, we offer a range of roof and exterior beacons. 

Health-&-Safety

Health & Safety

We are committed to drain jetter safety and the protection of workers and customers against bacterial contamination. While comprehensive jetter training is essential, we recognize the critical role that onboard welfare stations play in ensuring health and safety. 

  • Hand Wash Units and Eyewash Stations: Designed to provide immediate access to water for hand hygiene and emergency eye irrigation. These installations comply with health and safety regulations.

  • First Aid Kits: Fully stocked first aid kits address minor injuries or provide initial care in case of emergencies. These kits are tailored to meet industry standards.

  • Fire Extinguishers and Blankets: We provide fire extinguishers and fire blankets that are strategically placed within the drainage vehicle to combat potential fire incidents.


Vehicle-Signage

Van Signage

As part of our comprehensive service in preparing operation-ready, multipurpose jetting vans, Rioned offers professional van signage solutions to ensure your new vehicle aligns with your brand identity. Our signage services include:

  • Chapter 8 Chevron Signage: Compliant chevron signage ensures visibility and safety, especially when operating on highways or road works

  • Van Wrapping: High-quality van wrapping can transform the appearance of the vehicle and effectively showcases your brand, creating a visually striking and professional impression.

  • Van Branding: We offer van branding services, allowing you to prominently display your company logo, name, and contact information on the vehicle. 


I’ve never found drainage work so easy or a jetter that is so simple to operate. The jetter eats through grease and mud blockages in no time even at half the maximum PSI. The remote control means we don’t need two men to operate it and the digital screen really helps to see information such as PSI and water levels whilst I’m working.
