    Winter foam brush soap questions

    I let it freeze for a few years. Then switched to winter soap and lost my mind switching back and forth to regular during nice days and switching the tips when using winter soap based on temp so I dont' use too much. Started weeping 2 years ago and I use a crap load of water, but much less...

    Weep adjustment driving us crazy

    Where are your current needle valves located? Are they on the pumps by chance?

    Rotary Dial, pump on and off.

    100% true. I mostly put signs accepting that they are only there to point to them when the customer does something wrong. For any issue that doesnt' have a sign, of course the customer says "well you should put a sign saying that".

    NO Solenoid Valve Reccomendations

    Lol maybe they should. I put in a brand new commercial washer at my hotel and 18 months after it was installed, water wouldn't stop running to the door. Opened it up and to my dismay there was a row of Asco valves.... I repaired it with a kit (just used the diaphragm, but they make you buy...

    Ryko $99,999 installed special

    On mine they were not operational when I took over and they got hit by a car at least once every 2-3 months bending the whole shaft along with other damage. Other machines like PDQ don't' have them so close and they only come out when called upon. Otherwise they are way further out to avoid...

    NO Solenoid Valve Reccomendations

    I tried the Asco NO valve for my weep based on all the feedback here and it's the worst experience I've ever had. Rebuilt the first one after just one year with the super expensive kit, replaced another one year later. I switched to the half price Dema NO valve that I had been using at my...

    Ryko $99,999 installed special

    I pulled mine out years ago and replaced with spinners, but low pressure so they don't do much. Anything is better than the wheel scrubs, but if it isn't cleaning the rims then it's not much incentive.

    Ryko $99,999 installed special

    The wheel scrubs using friction so they do well, I'm curious how just using high pressure will do.

    Ryko $99,999 installed special

    I was told they will extend the special until 11/30. Does anyone here have the wheel blasters and know if they actually clean?

    Jim Coleman/B&C timer question

    You just plug it in and ignore the last two pins. Those are used to communicate with the SNC everything else is the same.

    Jim Coleman/B&C timer question

    You can and I have done it. Have one like that now. Only problem is that after the $ is put in, it will beep until they select either vacuum or shampoo. Works the same otherwise.

    Ryko $99,999 installed special

    20k credit is already factored in. It's in the fine print that is not showing on his picture.

    Ryko $99,999 installed special

    We didn't until the new law passed lately. Now tax on most things from out of state. Not everyone has implemented it though.

    Ryko $99,999 installed special

    This price is plus tax and freight and also any electrical or plumbing connections, so about 125k total.

    Hot water tank float/fill valve - Are there any that aren't complete rubbish?

    I started using this Hudson Valve https://www.kleen-ritecorp.com/p-2019-hudson-float-valves-high-temperature-1.aspx after having my hydrominder fail and getting a recommondation on this forum. Almost 3 years so far with no issues at 2 locations and it's dirty cheap. I keep an extra just in case.

    Sales Tax Exemption

    It ends up the same. If you have the form, it's a resale form and you pay the tax later. If not, you've just already paid the tax when you buy from KR so you don't pay it again later.

    Scent for combo vac

    I use KR scents, oil based so they last long and don't freeze. I have Pina Colada, New Car and Black Ice (night frost) in all my machines. I used to have Wild Cherry in all of them, but found that it clogged the lines after 2-3 months. Had that happen consistently in all machines with the WC...
