Christmas season isn't too far away, so I'll just keep checking stock. How much did you buy? It says they sell it from 3' up. My frag vacs never had any bubblers, so I didn't even know that they came with any. I guess the previous owner had already gotten rid of them.

That really looks great! Which lights did you buy exactly on noveltylights.com? Did you just wrap them around the cylinders and then run them to power?

For anyone that needs to add wall packs, I just bought 12 of these : http://www.soslightbulbs.com/product/fixtures/maxlite-skfhlwp-high-output-cfl-wall-pack-large-fixture/ No need to pay more for a unit that has a ballast only to remove it, so this is a great deal if you are putting in CFL...

I figured from a convenience standpoint that a combo unit would be easier as they could switch between functions. I could also have a digital timer and bill acceptors, maybe even throw a cryptopay on the unit. For standalone you would have cheaper timers and less clutter, plus they wouldn't be...

They would be mounted on the side of the vacuums, so no moving of the car is needed.

I have a Mars 2631 in one of my changers that quit working yesterday. There is no indicator light at all, so no flashing error codes. I plugged in my backup unit and it worked fine, so it is not a power supply problem on my end. Is the board probably dead? Is there a way for me to diagnose...

What do you guys think of stand-alone frag or shampoo units? I feel like it might be more user friendly to have the combo unit, but with a stand-alone I wouldn't have to get rid of any existing vacuums and could just add them on.

I just missed out on buying the wall packs from I.B.Washingcars. Can anyone reccommend a good place to get some extra fixtures? I need about 12 more. I converted a few to CFL and they are nice, but now I need to add more fixtures.

Probably not. I will just leave them be. Hopefully with the bill acceptors and credit cards I won't have to worry about as many quarters anyway and can just empty them less often.

My lenses are actually glass at the wash I am changing the bulbs at. I must have assumed that they were plastic since they are at my other wash. What is the best place to look for replacement glass lenses for Lithonia fixtures? I have two that have broken glass. Thanks.

I wonder if it would make a difference if I ran the coin box heater down to the vault and just taped it to the top. Not sure if the wires would get in the way of the quarters as they come out of the sensortron. The best fix would be to prevent the quarters in the vault from getting wet in the...

Sounds like a good idea on the frag lights. I do think the scrolling displays on the other brands were very nice which is one reason I was looking at other options. I also don't like that on the Jim Coleman you can't check how much shampoo you have in there and just have to rely on the...

Very interesting as on all of my pumps at both washes the pressure shows about 200 psi higher when the trigger is not pulled. They all drop to about 1200 when you pull the trigger.

At one of my washes I have all coleman vacs. 2 shampoo/vacs, 2 frag/vacs and 3 super vacs. I have had them for just over a year and they have been pretty easy to maintain, but in regards to parts aside from the motor and some plumbing fittings I have been buying everything else from Jim...

I am wanting to add a combo shampoo/vac to my wash and was wondering what your opinions where in regards to brand? If you have combo vacs now and could start fresh, what brand would you go with and why? I wanted to do a poll but wasn't sure how. Which of these brands would you use? IVS Jim...

I have my meter boxes in the middle of the bay and have both cryptopay and bill acceptors installed there. They have been up for almost two months and so far no issues with water damage and they do get overspray as I see water on the coinbox all the time.

CFL should be an easy conversion, so I will try that route first to see how I like it. Some of my plastic covers are darkened, where can I get glass replacements?

Is 105 the highest I can get in cfl? I plan on converting to cfl to replace the 250 watt MH and was hoping to get away with just the one light since the bays are small. If not, it shouldn't be that hard for me to add a second light.

I honestly never even heard about coin box heaters until the wash I bought last year had them in already installed. On my older wash I have the vault right under the coin box and a lot of times in the winter the quarters in the vault will be stuck together and iced over. I have to use a torch...
