Hi everyone,

I’m planning a new car wash build in ontario canada and was recently quoted $452,000 for a Washworld Razor system. This price includes all the necessary equipment, dryersand installation. I’m wondering if this seems high or if it’s in line with current market pricing for this type of setup.


  • Washworld Razor System
  • Reverse Osmosis (RO) System
  • Water Softener
  • Premier Exit Dryers
  • Pay Station- Two Brand options available

If that’s Canadian dollars it is about $310USD. Seems a bit high. Does it include installation?

maybe it includes a tariff.

It's honestly not bad. Here are some ball park estimates in a breakdown.

Razor Fully Loaded - 175K
RO System - 10K
Water Softener - 15K
Dryers - 45HP - 20K
Pay Station - 25K
Install - 30K

Since you're in Canada you will need doors. Thats a additional 20-25K.

Assuming install in included (and CAN dollars), that cost is reasonable for what you are buying.

Word of advice, find different dryers...or do not use anything less that 15hp with Premier.

What pay station?

This thread is about the cost of a Wash World Razor touchless automatic installed. Is that what you are referring to or are you talking about self serve equipment? Are you talking about building a wash and installing the equipment?

You might be peeking a little. Use a blindfold and see how it turns out. Even AI makes mistakes. Many of us here build and install, we just live it, try not to brag, and help others.
