    Caught on Camera. Why it’s good to have quality cameras.

    Your thread title is correct---that camera is fantastic. What make/model are you using?

    Cat 623....fix or pitch?

    Come on Randy...I have eight 623s that are from 1974. Yep 47 years old and they still are working great. Never had to replace any back of the pump components though. So I would agree, let 'er go.

    Do you have flood insurance on your wash?

    This is a government mandated requirement. If you have a mortgage with a bank on a property in a flood zone, you must have it. We had a property in this situation--found out one day before settlement it was in a flood zone. A few years ago, we were able to refinance another location and draw...

    Tokens

    I just ordered 27,000 of the high security token I use from them last month. Had order in 10 days. Which metal/alloy are you using?

    Batch errors

    I had a long talk with Mark @ Hamilton today. Of course he says the dial up will be going the way of the dinosaur soon. He said sometime in the future they will no longer support it. I like dial up. No one can hack into it. And it only takes about 12-15 seconds to process, so to me it is fine...

    Batch errors

    Is anyone having batch errors on their paystations in the past few weeks/months? I have been getting character mismatch errors quite frequently across different locations with American Changer and Hamilton machines. Hamilton is able to find the bad card data and delete it to move the batch to...

    Will KR give you any sample Tokens?

    Make sure you are getting a high security token with a protected radius to all your washes. Osbourne gives you 100 mile area protected. I just ordered 27k and they were $.21/each.

    310 manifold washout

    I have had a bunch done at Kleen-Rite all with great success. I sent one to Vilco way back since they were a bit cheaper and it would not stop pulsation after re-install. So I have stuck with KR. Just under $200 last time I sent one in. I think I am pretty much all re-sleeved now. I have only...

    How do you handle this situation?

    More bs from idiots trying to blame a car wash for prior damage to their vehicle. Anymore, I just tell them flat out the car wash unit did not do that--end of story. Which part of "touchfree" did this person not understand? Once anyone threatens legal action, I stop talking altogether-not...

    If You Weren't in the Car Wash Business...

    At this point, a retired State Trooper (if I made it this far). When I was going to college for criminal justice, a Delaware Trooper could retire after 20 years of service. So, if I had made it, I would have been retired for about 15 years now pulling in a nice $75k pension or so. Plus getting...

    Anyone have a remote shut off

    I use this product from control by web for a 4 bay s/s location. I have GinSan timers, so I am just pulse closing across the #2 and #3 terminals, which shorts the timer out and shuts bay off. I use this for a different reason--I have a 30 minute for one price set up with loops in the floors...

    My new kip manifolds/solenoids are leaking

    Do you have winter time foam brush automatic changeover with purge? If yes, then it could be a check valve on that part of the system. There is a check valve on each bay to keep winter fb from pushing back into the block when it is purging. These can be a bitch to figure out which one; I usually...

    Older WeepMizer acting up

    Older one should be gray wire. The newer style is yellow wire. They are not interchangeable.

    Trash cans are gone

    Following up on this old thread--- those of you that pulled cans off the lot, are you still happy with that decision? Since covid, everyone is eating in their car. I have a location in a shopping center that is two lots down from a Chick-Fil-A. Since I am obsessed with watching car wash video...

    Feel like I'm held hostage by Google Reviews

    Yea...these services are a waste of your time. They just encourage keyboard cowboys. If someone does not have enough balls to say it to your face, then they should not be typing it. This is one reason I do not have facebook, snapchat, twitter or any other of those nutty platforms that have...
