    Car wash Superstore vs Kleen rite

    Wow ... what could get even scarier ... is if a manufacturer was not allowed to drop ship?

    INSURANCE

    No offense ... trying not to be too cynical ... but it seems like kind of the craps to rely possibly a bit too much on luck??? So possibly even though you did not have it in writing from the underwriter clarifying what was specifically allowed to be covered under the building ... the claim...

    Switched to count up today

    Thanks I stand corrected that. It missed my normally OK quick eye scan!:)

    Switched to count up today

    It does not say at what temperature they open on the pdf. Out of curiosity ... about what temperature do they open at? Some pumps have higher temperature seals.

    INSURANCE

    Some agents lower their premium quote by having most of the car wash equipment as part of the "building coverage" categorized value vs the more "expensive personal property coverage" categorized value. If there are claims ... I am not sure of court precedents on that potential legal...

    INSURANCE

    Sounds like a "bailment" technicality ... supposedly courts see that as more liability. Possibly another excuse to dis & even penalize small service businesses.

    Bonus time LED7

    When we are discussing the LED7 ... is it safe to say that a sometime reference to a coin is the same as a pulse? I am somewhat humbled being confused about optimizing the LED7's Bonuses for all cash payment scenarios. Like for some others ... hopefully the confusion will be on the...

    Bonus time LED7

    It depends on how long of a wait. I now see that Earl's Bonus probably will work ... it honestly does seem to still give the bonus without the customer trying too hard to beat the Dixmor's timer start. So it appears I was wrong about the need for a lightning fast insertion of the 3rd & 4th...

    Bonus time LED7

    I took time ... besides just talking "late breaking prez election potential correction" with customers this afternoon .... to do a quick phone video & sent it to my youtube channel: I am pretty sure the quickness has to be within the 2 second Dixmor delay start parameter. I thought the delay...

    Car wash Superstore vs Kleen rite

    It can be a good thing when a company assigns a specific account person (not just geographically based either) to one's heavily used account. That is where & why I have had "for the most part" great experiences with KR. A car wash that tends to order in dribbles at time is likely to NOT come...

    Protecting a three phase Air Shammee motor

    We don't have the "much touted" single 3PH motor for our Blo Drys. We do have a piggy back overload (18-25amp range) for the contactor that on 2 poles include the two 1PH Domel Motors. We use 2 thinner versions of the Square D circuit breakers so each motor is individually protected at the...

    Bonus time LED7

    For the higher pulse count to work for a higher initial amount bonus ... if I remember right ... for it to not go too quickly into the actual start ... Dixmor has a delay setting. That delay setting is possibly what MEP is wondering about? 20 quarters would probably require too long of a...

    'm getting to hate Starbucks

    Those of us in potential overnight snowfall areas ... know the frustration of a vehicle making snow removal even more costly & time consuming than it already is! I have bad memories of police pulling vehicles over into an open bay for "warrant out for arrest" & then blocking the bays with 3 PD...

    Bonus time LED7

    I don't remember exactly ... but I do know that if 4 quarters are put in real fast it will give the bonus.

    Bonus time LED7

    For many years now we have been giving a bonus time with our Vacuum Dixmor LED7s if the customers use dollar coins. 4 quarters put in real fast will do the same bonus time. On the laundromat side our 16 dryers' all have the ability to adjust the pulses-time so we also successfully give a...

    Dog wash

    JTR1 & others, After proven itself with "over 10 years" of two self service dog wash separated stalls now ... we have found our specific customers appreciate the ability to position the height. A factor is whether one's facility has workers there most of the time keeping drains unclogged etc...

    Rebuilding AirLift Magna Glides

    In some areas ... potential vandalism destruction with a potential knifing perp .... might even enter into the picture when choosing the XPS Rollup? Or are the variety of rollups all made out of metal & not extra vulnerable vinyl or fabric?

    This is the reason why!

    I am thinking that car washes with doors &/or gated area that lock up during slowest hours are less likely to have their bill acceptors ... &/or ATMs be hit for that matter. Alarm system should be quick enough to trigger if the perps are in a closed area during closed time. It might help...
