    Credit and debit card start up charge

    Just fyi, out of the many people that max out the $15 charge that I set, I only get one call every 3-4 months. So not going count up for that reason is just leaving money on the table. I charge $3 to start for cc, $2 for cash.

    Dumpster Service

    I pay Republic Services $26/month to rent the dumpster (6yd) and then pay the city $36/month to dump it twice a week. Seems like a steal compared to what you guys are paying. For my 4yd, I only pay $24.10/month to the city.

    Best Self Serve Equipment

    I have an 11 year old super saver and have not run into anything so far that wasn't easy to fix or replace. It has been very reliable as well. I had to get a few functions working when I first took over a few years ago, but most of the issues were the coils going to each function.

    Dropping merchant fees?

    I have come across the same issue a few times. I win, then it is reversed and I have to go to arbitration if I want to continue fighting it. Like I am going to risk losing $500.

    Help with Ryko OHD 2001

    I found the valve on astromatic and also a repair kit, but it says: RM124A REPAIR KIT, LIQUID END OF WATER VALVE, FOR RM124. http://carwashconsignment.com/wiki/CWC/US_2001_OHD_Parts Is that what is needed to repair it, or is there a different kit?

    I-Meg Tip

    I had these in my touch free, but when I replaced them I couldn't find any to match the sizes that were in there, so I went with a standard tip. Would an imeg clean better?

    Self-Serve Car Wash Security

    I think the whole point of frequent collections is so that you lose less if you are robbed, not to deter crime.

    Problem with Backflow preventer

    I am guessing that it has to do with something causing a pressure variation. It is not constantly running, but enough to keep the floor wet. What could be causing the variation on the outlet side?

    Problem with Backflow preventer

    I thought so, but I have a backflow device at 3 other places and they have never let out a drop. Maybe the pressure at this location is different?

    Problem with Backflow preventer

    At one of my washes, my back flow preventer keeps randomly running water and I haven't been able to figure out why. I was wondering if anyone here had a similar experience. Over the years it would randomly run small amounts of water whenever my hot water tank was in operation. Whenever I had...

    Best Heat tape for trough!!!

    I am sure it can be achieved, but it will be very hard. I don't have a real trough. The lines run through the metal joists that run across the top. There are multiple round holes throughout the back of the joist, then the front is covered with a piece of wood to cover the lines. I have been...

    Best Heat tape for trough!!!

    Is there a point in using heat tape if the trough isn't air tight? Mine is open in different areas and I'm not sure if I can seal it properly.

    Saving a few $$ with Zoro Tools

    I first found them when I needed to replace my Rheem storage tank. They already had the best price, then I got an additional 20% off. I have used them several times since then and all my orders arrive the next day!

    Help with Ryko OHD 2001

    Thanks Soapy. Is the air valve near the arm or would it be in the ER near all the other solenoids? Thanks.

    Help with Ryko OHD 2001

    I have the OHD 2001 Touch-Free and when a car drives in and the undercarriage/tire cleaner kicks on, water is also coming out of the high pressure nozzles on the arm. I am guessing a solenoid is wore out or has dirt in it, but wasn't sure where to look exactly. Any suggestions are appreciated.
