My insurer just asked for those breakdowns this past year fir the first time. They wanted separate s/s, automatic, vending, and vacuum. My rates did not go down because of this. But they did not go up either.

You get a higher spot free production with warm water. I think 77 degrees is optimal.

SOD458PS- $185 at KR. I have had them on two units about 3 years with no issues. There is a repair kit for $56. I do not keep one on hand because I have had very few issues in the past with hp demas. Usually if it is leaking through, there is debris stuck in it. I just take them apart...

Dump the lexair, and put a dema hp solenoid on.

I have a counter. So I deposit to the bank $1000 at a time in the heavy plastic bags. No charge; it is just like a regular cash deposit. It is a local bank. I get the bags from eBay. They cost 40-50 cents each depending how many I order at a time.

Bought this location out of bankruptcy. Previous owner thought it would be a good idea to plumb the floor heating system with water; and constant fresh water pressure feed. Gas meter was removed years before we bought it. Needless to say, it was busted in many places. We have jackhammered...

Complete demo, and new floors is about $35,000. This is with me doing the labor installing the floor heat tubing. Pour over old, with me doing the labor on the floor heat tubing is about $19,000. Lag-- Yes it would affect autos. They are lasers, so I would have to raise the units up to keep...

I have a 4 bay wash (2 auto/ 2 s/s) that needs all new concrete and floor heat tubing. I have a vendor that says it will be fine to lay new tubing over old concrete, then pour 4 to 5 inches of new concrete over it. Has anyone ever done it this way ? If yes, what are the results ? Obviously...

Good point lag. I have had that happen before, especially after a night that has had fog or a lot of dew. First wash blows all that loosened up crap out.

I agree cfcw. I get all my booster pumps, procon pumps, and have recently gotten a nice Campbell-Hausfield 5hp/80 gal air compressor way cheaper than anyone else; plus free shipping.

You should definitely have a tds meter. I check mine in all bays, at the tank, and at the production hose. If you have something stuck in a soap or wax solenoid, it could be sucking some of it when sfr is on.

Just used it---saved $106 on $425. Not sure how in the heck they do all these deals, plus free shipping. I just hope they keep doing them.

Not that--using Mobil SHC 630, as specified on gearbox. Remember--in manual mode it runs fine all the time. Only a triggered wash does it slow/stop, and only first one in the morning.

Fairly easy. Works best with two people. Maybe 15-20 minutes.

Yes--tires good, pressure good, synthetic oil changed in gear box this Summer, bearings greased monthly. Keep in mind, if I run it in manual mode first thing it goes just fine. It is only the first activated wash cycle. It is a real mystery to me.

Luv these Lasers when there is intermittent issues. Got one when cold, first use in the morning going across the front or down the driver's side--it will get real slow, then stop. Error is motor overrun. Yet, I can put it in manual mode and run it all over the place without it slowing down or...

The bulb will not get the heat out to the keypad. All my units have heaters in them; they get really hot. But the display and keypad are on an extrusion, and that heat does not make it out to the keypad. The display and keypad stay cold, while the cabinet is toasty. The actual display module...

I replace my membranes when it goes above 15 ppm. I like it a 5 ppm or less really. Most of my systems are at 2 ppm.

Well not exactly that, but one time we had a four day cold snap. So I thought I would shut everything down, and blow all the hp lines out with air. I unhooked them in the room, and blew through at full air pressure from compressor (150 psi). This blew the guns right out of the wand holders. I...

I use Dottie at Van Brook/ Osborne. I pay about 20 cents delivered. That 65 cents is outrageous! I order about 15k tokens every 18 months. I have a 100 mile protected radius around my five washes that they will not sell the same metal content token.
