No? So why have it or change it? What’s the function?

Appreciate most of the efforts however those with Profiles know the challenge that prohibits rails, the low to the ground photo eyes which help with the wheel detailing. We had rails with our Istobal. The rails made it more challenging for drivers to drive inside the bay but did give some...

For Profile owners. How do you help customers drive down the center of the bay? We have blue pucks on the ground and traffic poles at the entrance yet some people pull to the driver’s side of the bay about once a day. Profile then stops for the car safety at the beginning of their wash after...

Wow we change our prefilter when the TDS gets to 3 or every 150 Hours.

Check your production to reject ratio. Often you can get it down to zero TDS by 2/3 to 1/3 ratio.

Find a local bank. They often have coin counting machines and no fees for the service.

Check your bank statement. Some processors like TSYS charge your bank account their fee and e-xact also will charge you their fee. E-XACT does the actual work and the other firm is the face. Depends on who the top processor is. Some will roll the e-xact fee into their fee others do not.

5-7 places is a lot of work even with paid help.

Your pic is a good reason to order the razor with the cold weather package. But when temps are in the single digits there is not much you can do but close the doors until temps rise even with the cold weather package.

I did not want to imply that we run without humans. We have people at each location to keep an eye on things for a few hours a day. They are just basic workers. We use various technology to help us keep abreast of things at the wash. Besides 4K cameras for the property we use $20 Waze...

If you have not received the HTK you can ask Hamilton to sell you the MARs version. Much more reliable. If you already have a HTK you can ask them about the mars retro kit for the HTK. KR may sell them at a discount as Hamilton will charge you retail pricing.

I assume you are adding the separate exact fees to your WorldPay cc fees. Many people forget about them since they are invoiced separately.

Problem is that almost all equipment manufacturers and installers in the car wash industry have never owned or operated a car wash. They have no clear vision how it really operates on a daily basis. Hard to find someone with such knowledge. One day someone will reengineer the cryptopay swiper...

Chemicals alone will not remove anything in a touch free wash. They loosen the dirt. The distance of the HP arm to the car and the speed the arm travels is what can make a difference in the outcome of a TF wash. for self service cleaning it is the pressure and the way a customer uses the wand...

We upgraded our Goldlines and Hamilton changers from XE to Mars acceptors. The XE are unreliable and seem to have issues too often.

we use a HP soap (Florida Citrus) that has an aroma. Most SS HP soaps are the same (although I am sure some here may differ in that opinion). Probably more of a difference if you use warm-hot water for the soap. SS customers will get a better outcome if they use the foam brush as water power...

Klopp with a custom ordered chute to separate the tokens from dollar coins and quarters. Klopp will make the chute to your token spec for $50. that being said we found a local bank that sorts the coins for free depositing the quarters and handing us the dollar coins to reuse in our machines...

$5 CC $3 cash Vacs are same as cash $2

I can view them without signing into my account so you should be good. We used to use a screw to secure the hose to the cuffs (on vacs) but they would tear the hose (over time). We now use plumbers glue around the hose that is to fit into the cuff or swivel. Cleaner look. Only negative is that...
