East Coast (Delaware)- Jan-March busiest. June-August slowest. 4 locations-- 24 s/s bays, 7 ibas, 34 vacs

With the condition of local and state governments (being flat broke, that is), I would not count on any grants. The technology seems to be pretty good right now, so as an operator I feel it is just the right thing to do. Yes, you have to put up with the increased frequency of wall and...

My system is 60 gpm. It is 5' high by 4' wide by 16" depth. This is without the ozone mounted on top. I wall mounted the ozone system, because my unit sits under my elevated wash water heater. I used an 12g ozone system from an old Con-Serv unit I took out of service. The unit installed...

I have some mild wall staining. I think that would be with any reclaim system. Anytime you are slinging grey water onto the walls, it has to leave some kind of mark. We try to clean walls once a week with a mild degreaser. This helps between acid washes, which I do about every 6 months. I...

Yes, just placed it into service the first of February. So far--FANTASTIC! Like they say: minimal maintenance. Water quality so far seems superior to another system I have. The VFD with multiple inputs is great. I honestly am amazed at how well the system works with it size and small...

Can't argue with that logic. It looks like a good choice for you.

I agree, you handled that well. What drugs do you take to remain that calm? Over the years you become seasoned to dealing with these idiots one way; mostly because some of this crap is so stupid.

Changing pumps for a washed out head is a bit drastic , isn't it? I have had 310s since '94, with only one wash out. I sent to KR for repair for about $150--no issues since. I have one location with five 5cp2120w. All five of those did wash out within 6 years, but were all repaired under...

If you do not need to control speed, then use a soft start. I just replaced all my dryer motor startes with an Allen Bradly SMC-3 soft starter. These are way less costly that VFDs. Plus it gives you lots of start up options like: currentlimit (% of FLA) of 150%, 250%, 350% or 450%, how many...

I actually did not have a problem. This was because there was already other commercial businesses on a sewer meter. Although, I did request the same at another municipality and they turned it down. They gave me the BS that my rates already calculated in the carryout & evaporation. I am sure...

Tom Thumb: The sewer meter I am using is called an Ultra Mag, model # UM06-02. It is for a 2 inch line rated to 160 gpm. The company that makes it is McCrometer, Inc. Their website is: www.mccrometer.com You can find details on all the latest units, and find a distributor. I got mine...

I knew that would come up, and ofcourse I do not have the info here at the office. I will be at that location on Tuesday, and will get the info for you. Look for it late Tuesday evening. It has been a few years since we installed it, but I think the only issue for the model I have is that the...

One of my municipalities let me put in a sewer meter, so I only pay what goes to the sewer. It is the ultrasonic kind which reads throught the pipe--nothing to get caught in an impeller. Caution though, be sure your guttering is clearly directed away from your building and drains. As well, I...

I replaced one on a syncro 1000. I got it from Huron Valley Sales. It was about five years ago, and it was almost $300 then. Ofcourse, nobody repairs the old ones.

Try a different hose. The old one could be coming apart inside.

I purchased a Con-Serv YS-3 slim reclaim from the site 5 years ago. I offered 1/2 of the asking price. A few days later the offer was accepted. CarWash Consignment arranged the shipping. I sent one check to them, and a couple of weeks later I had a reclaim. Althought the main pump housing...

It seems to me it would make more sense for lenders to work with the existing owner, who may be under water. So what if they have to redo the loan, and stretch it out for an addtional 5-10 years. That would seem easier to me than going through the foreclosure and auction process, and cheaper...

Google Hoover "SpinSweep". It is a bit smaller but does a great job. It is less than $100. I have one at ewach of my four locations.

I have an equipment room tight on space as well. I set the floats in both automatic feed tanks to 50% of the reserve, then I "T"d the reject line and ran it to both tanks. This feeds about half to each reserve tank. I figure there is about 50 gallons of capacity in each one. But when...

I have used carwashcameras.com for two complete set ups. (both 16 camera systems). The service and knowledge of the associates is second to none. I would highly recommend. As a bonus, the prices are the best I have found for the quality of their products.
