I guess it's in the training. The customers have been trained for years that it counts down. They don't shut it off, the big red button and large print instructions. So they get charged ten dollars the max charge and the person next in line just got a free wash. A person could put a loop in...

Big display. I use credit cards in all bays and it's count down, to much trouble with count up. It displays after the swipe, Validating and after acceptance it counts up to six minutes and starts the count down when finished it displays how much the charge will be, no printing of receipts. My...

First shut off power to VAC. Second make sure you have a fuse on each VAC motor (15 A). Third buy a quality motor, Lamb. I can get about three brush changes before the armature wears out on a Lamb. The old GSE was good for two or three changes, the newer GSE don't buy and if you have one just...

It's a lot cheaper to use a thermo relief valve in the loop. Bypass water temp goes up to 160 deg. the valve opens just like your thermostat on your car engine, and vents hot water to drain or if your open tank setup just dump it back into the tank. This brings in fresh water that's lower in...

Lighting I also replaced all my MH with Ergo's 105 fixtures and never looked better. Also replaced HID on my conopies ( several hundred ) with cpfl. The savings in elec. is around 60%. That is to me thousands of $ per year. And I sold the old fixtures on E-bay at half the cost of new...
