To make things worse, you should read the super long text thread we've had today. I'm going to try and find a way to post it. I'm going to call the county attorney and try to have them press charges, and if that doesn't work I will take him to small claims just for the heck of it. I'm also...

I had a guy Saturday night that emptied a whole trailer full of mud into my pit, stopping it up and leaving the bay filthy. Pit is fill and bay was shut down for 2 days since it happened over the weekend. I called the police and filed a report. I actually found his information and spoke to...

I don't think I can justify more than a $3 starting price with all of the new competition, but I may decrease the time per quarter for cc users since they don't really notice and tend to spend more anyway.

I have it via a local company. They installed it and provide the monitoring. Basically someone like ADT, but cheaper.

My biggest issue was break ins in my in -bay doors, so I ended up putting a siren outside as well. If your outside bay doors are alarmed, I recommend a siren outside so that hopefully they get scared off after getting into one bay.

I just push it on until the first ridge is in, still swivels. What brand you using?

No idea why they fail. I have 2 units. The main(server) unit seems to be ok, but my secondary unit is the one that eats drives. After it first failed, by instinct was to copy the drive to one I purchase myself. The drive was locked and I was never able to figure out how to clone it. They...

I agree, Unitec support setup is horrendous. I used to be able to call and get someone on the phone in the early days, but not anymore. I have to Portals and on one the hard drive dies a miniumum of once per year. They can never figure out the cause and I've purchased at least 6-7 of them so...

I put in 2 of these so far https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01JOYWL04/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 My idea was that I am using 85 watt CFL lights, so with LED I should be able to use less wattage and get more light. These are 65 watt. Worked out great for my wall packs...

Lol sometimes you miss the simplest methods/ideas.

I lost the T allen key that was used to open my shurvend. Anyone that has one know the size I need to get to replace it? Thanks.

I only use black hoses for that reason. Tried blue and the dirt just shows quickly. Same for bay spray guns.

I've learned the only way they come is if you make it seem thratening. I usually mention " I think they have a gun" Or " I think I saw a knife" but I'm not sure. Speeds things up tremendously. Of course that's only for situations where there is a criminal act taking place, not for just random...

Best way is to figure out what machine you want to buy and contact whomever the distributer is directly. You can find contact information on the websites of each machine.

I have radiant tube heaters in my current wash IBA's, wondered if there was anything more efficient or better in general. Piping heat from the ER is an interesting idea. Appreciate the ideas.

I am thinking about purchasing a wash that has an IBA with no doors and no heat, just weep and heated floors. I would add doors right away but would still need heat and was wondering what everyone recommended. I don't see the floor heat as keeping it warm enough to do without actual heat. I...

I have Coinless and think it's great! Usage has been picking up at both washes and customers that use it, love it. I also have used it several times myself to just turn on equipment for customers if there is an issue. I have it installed at all bays and vacuums.

I"ve found that rain/weather is basically 90% of any shift in sales numbers. That includes snow/salt. For example, this year we had 0 salt days and you can see the difference in winter income. Rained non stop for 2.5 years. Have one month during Covid with little rain and washing went up...

$2 for 5 minutes. At my other wash the clientele is a little different so $2 for 6 minutes.

I have 3 tunnels within 1 mile, one as close as next door. All with free vacs and I was hesitant, but raised the vac prices anyway thinking I could go back down if it didn't work out, but income went up, so it's been 2 years now with the higher prices. $2 for 5 minutes.
