Screening Topsoil

By Al Skoropa

An EZ Screen topsoil screener in use.No matter what size topsoil screen you need, EZ Screen has it. Topsoil screeners, dirt screeners, soil sifters, and screening machines. All the same terms for doing the same job: separating topsoil and other materials by size. Each application has different screen needs, but you can use most screening machines to handle many different materials. For example, use a dirt screener with piano wire screens that open 2” wide on top with ½” spacing on the bottom for the best soil sifting results. It will produce topsoil with most stones removed, as homeowners prefer, yet will still allow some to remain in the fines for proper aeration.

If the material you want to screen contains roots and long, flat rocks, use a smaller horizontal slot. Remember: the more wire in the screening machine, the slower production will be. One more tip: Do not attempt to use your screening machine on wet topsoil, as the results will be less than desirable as production will be very sluggish, and you’ll gum up the screens. A soil sifter can be an excellent way for you to consider improving your production, lowering your costs by reusing material on-site, and allowing for more efficient use of our manpower.
