Randy can you explain the benefits of the Procon pumps on the pre soak and tire cleaner at 125 PSI? I just don't know the benefit yet as I'm always learning. Thanks

Man, I never knew I was so privileged to have a toilet at my wash. Next time when I have a seat I'll savor the moment watching my Flo Jets pump and my hydro minders doing their business. 😃

We love our air shammee installation. Ours is the 3-phase units in the bay. Yesterday, when I was at the wash, a lady told me it wasn't working. I asked her to demonstrate why. She just pulled the nozzle out of the holder and said see no air... I politely showed her you needed to turn the switch...

Kind of a weird question but at our self-service, it's for employees only.

Thank you everyone for the responses and wisdom. For my wash I went with the metal option. Seems solid and will last a long time. Thanks

So mother nature remodeled one of bays and need some advice on options to replace the ceiling. It seems the old vinyl is special order. A contractor suggested marine plywood painted white. What are you guys using for the ceilings in your bays? Any other options to consider? Any input is...

Hello, I'm troubleshooting a 1998 Raypak floor heat unit. I had a guy out and he seems to think it the pump or flow switch. He looked at the Honeywell automatic vent damper and said they don't use those anymore. He suspects that could be bad as well. The contractor has since bailed on me and I'm...

Has anyone experienced their coin value change by itself yet? My coin count was down in 3 out of 4 bays and looked into it and the device setting was changed from $25 cents to $0 cents in 3 bays. I have not been in the settings in months. The problem has been fixed but concerned how this...

I agree with Kimberly 100%. I installed the Diskins three-phase units for an all-in cost of $15K. I checked my hour meters at the 1-year mark and have recovered all my expenses. Customers love them and see them being used a lot. Good Luck

I wish more businesses would do this. Soon I'll have a giant flag painted on one of my white walls that faces the street sometime soon. Nice work.

I'm using the air logic guns and love them. I bought screws and acorn nuts and drilled completely through the outside diameter. In two years I've only lost two due to theft. No problems once the screws were installed.

I use the Hog Daddy brushes as well. They seem to hold up very well. I do install new ones each spring to keep them fresh. Customers like them.

MEP, Thanks for the reply and this solves my problem. Much appreciated. David

This weekend I have an air shutoff valve go bad on my tire system. This valve is 115Volt and turns off and on the air flow to the my flojet. The inlets are 1/4 pipe. Looked on Kleenrite and they seem to out of everything. Anywhere else I can locate one online that you guys know of? Also these...

I've been lurking on this post for a while and I made the decision to increase my price this weekend to $4.00 start price for 4 1/2 minutes. I'm at $3.50 now for a very busy 4 bay, 6 vacuum wash. I don't see any real impact on my customers. Just the other day I stopped and got a burger for...

Give Dan a call at Excell electronics in Vegas. He just rebuilt one for me and upgraded to the latest software as well. He's my go-to guy on Hamilton.

Thanks for everyone's feedback. MEP I'll check the wiring next time I'm at the wash. I'm sure its disconnected from the room seeing I've had no issues. Positive thinking here.. This is very helpful. Thanks

Good to know. Is it as simple as removing the existing input power to the old-timer? I don't want to cause other issues as it's been working great for two years now. Thanks for the input!

Good morning, I'm running Dixmor 6 timers in my bays and getting ready to change my start-up price. Do those timers override the ones installed in my control boxes in the equipment room? I upgraded the bay panels a couple of years ago and kept the same startup price so I'm just unsure when I go...

I purchased 4 about 6 months ago and haven't installed them yet. My fear is more chargebacks. I can see people not hitting the button to end the charges. By having to separate units the customers need to actually think. We all know how that ends. Anyone run into this and have some thoughts?
