Soapy, I would be very cautious about signing a long term contract with Century Link based on their proven in the past knee jerk crazed collection agency policy ... whether they lived up to their end of the contract or not. All while ... the pertinent gov't agencies' top jocks ... look the...

Rather than hi jacking the recent & still current IBA category Airlift Trapped Inside Thread ... I am wondering if there any colder climate operators extending their automatic doors to all of their more numerous self service bays ... on this forum? The very close to brand new competition in my...

Officer, Depending on your self service competition, I would still accept quarters even though you would not dispense them. Do you accept paper bills on your SS coin boxes? I am a believer in & have done it ... in a bonus format. Something to consider. On my vacuums ... I give an extra...

Before we rely too heavily on the "pen" ... keep in mind that counterfeiters for over 5 years now commonly use an easily available hair spray that will defeat the counterfeit pen check. It is common knowledge in our area ... not sure in other areas of the country.

Officer, Kudos to you ... just because some Swedes are doing just the opposite does not mean us Americans should: https://www.businessinsider.com/swedish-people-embed-microchips-under-skin-to-replace-id-cards-2018-5 The key is to make sure your customers can easily get the "easier to use"...

2Biz, Back in 1990, when a mechanical engineer took a desperate me under his wing ... he never let on how to arrive at final pressure & volume from 2 pumps in series??? Maybe it was something he personally just never did before. All I know is that the below super expensive Webtrol clumsy...

2Biz, JGinther, & others, It is great to read a bit of pro & con actual experience ... since there can be a bit of a frenzy when it comes to pretending that the wall mounts are a best fit panacea for everyone. Hopefully, others will share their real life experiences. These hi performance...

OurTown, Given a choice, I try to choose aquastats & thermostats with the ability to fine tune & adjust the differentials. Especially if the cost is not kicked up too much. I have had some thermistor based staging modules from Independent Energy out of Rhode Island that have been flawless...

Cityview, Hopefully, the system has not just a hook up wiring diagram but also a ladder wiring diagram ... that would help possibly rewiring it in an improved way along with possibly a relocation of the stop button etc.

We had an incident of property damage but was not intentional but was a hit & run. Missing plate info. Police said they would try. In the meantime I went to an online license search. I posted on the coin laundry assoc forum. A good samaritan computer programmer who was a fellow CLA forum...

Am I reading that correctly... if all of the plate numbers & state ID was captured ... I would think that the local police will for sure find them & set up some type of requirement of reimbursement possibly without having to go to civil (small claims)??? ... even if they are out of state...

During a cold winter up north ... run off from the roofs during a thaw can be a problem ice wise on the parking lot etc. Possibly one of us could address two problems at once. At home ... it could be great for those of us with large vegetable gardens. Another project on mine & others' wish...

On the coldest winter evening ... many years ago ... I got to the facility like Greg before the police responding to an alarm. The 7 or 8 police officers that came down would not let me go into the building for fear of the bad guys taking me hostage inside our facility. It turned out the bad...

On our 3 motor vac long ago, I had the carpet of an older vehicle unravel while vacuuming. I had volunteered to vacuum an older vehicle for a visiting uncle from Colorada Springs. Like Gomer Pyle would say .... Surprise .... Surprise ... Surprise!

Based on that, I wonder if a similar true pro cook might jam wireless credit card receptacles???

dukeofsuds, We pride ourselves on swapping & washing our filter bags in our front load washing machines & keeping the sealing good against the base area of the VMK19 style of vacuum motors along with catching plugs as they happen. Plus we try to keep our time & bonus time better than our local...

Up here in North Dakota .... a mild enough winter so the overhead doors on both ends can be used as infrequently as possible. That along with both my regular & new customers wisely dressing for the weather so that they are not shivering! Let me & my employees get our numerous projects behind...

I agree that our friend & former Car Wash Forum contributor Mike Oliver & company would have been better off building on & maintaining their one time strength in their products. Maybe they can turn that around ... I don't think the lack a proper political policy distribution (availability) of...

Swampdonkey, Based on the following possible realities for some of us: 1. The expenses are significantly up during the worse part of the winter. 2. Nobody washes in their driveway at home during the worse part of the winter. 3. Other car washes are closed during the worse part of the...

Our variable pressure $65+ guns come with an unneeded insulation plastic on the stainless wand portion of it. The insulation does not last & starts to work its way off ... pretty much a worthless addition IMHO when the manufacturer started adding that to the guns. The insulation probably...
