    New to me wash

    Different brand regulator than what you have but should be a direct replacement: https://www.kleen-ritecorp.com/p-1787-smc-balance-flow-thru-regulator-200-2000psi-7-gpm-instant-response.aspx

    Foam Brush - Chasing Gremlins

    Solenoids have an inlet and an outlet. With some it's very easy to install them backwards, then they can't stop pressure from flowing. Can you post a picture of the solenoids?

    No power at meter box

    This is incorrect. Each leg tested to ground is probably going to read 120V. There would not be a fuse between the power pulled from the contactor and input to the transformer.

    Monex cc machine?

    I'm almost positive their hardware doesn't allow that. If it can, I'd like to see it in operation. FWIW I got some spam PMs from them, which I didn't appreciate.

    Foam Brush - Chasing Gremlins

    Are you sure you're replacing the correct solenoid? Did you disconnect the line from the outlet and see it running product? Did you install the new solenoid in the correct orientation?

    Monex cc machine?

    I have seen Monex work. It's nothing like Nayax or Cryptopay. Rather than the swipe once and wash-all-you-want, Monex has you swipe and pre-purchase a certain dollar amount. IMO it will require smart customers and a lot of customer training, and doesn't offer the same benefits.

    Well water?

    Actually using well water will reduce your sewer costs too since sewer is calculated off city water use. My sewer cost is 5 times water cost. I can't do a well but I've considered harvesting rain water.

    Self Serve Price Increase

    Grace time is to restart the timer with less of an amount than the full start-up after the time has completely run out. Last minute alert is to warn customer the time is about to run out.

    It's most likely the coin acceptors.

    Well water?

    You might want to look into recycling/reclaim, usually a very bad idea with self serve, but sewer is usually the vast majority of your water bill.

    Self Serve Price Increase

    Did you mean 20 seconds? Two seconds isn't enough time for anyone to get more coins added.

    Bonus time & Count up.

    No, Cryptopay has no bonus feature, and it doesn't know or care what the timer is set for in cash payment. You would have to run Cryptopay in count-down mode to use any timer bonuses.

    No power at meter box

    What about the output of the transformer? You should read 24V AC across the screw terminals, or 12V AC from each terminal to ground. You may have tripped the thermal overload on the contactor. The "best" way for those to be wired is the whole 24V circuit gets broken if it trips, which also...

    Self Serve Price Increase

    I don't give them money, but I keep hearing that if a homeless asks for money and you give them just a dollar bill, they get upset.

    Bankruptcy

    You should probably ask a lawyer if it's even legal to "plan" for bankruptcy. A cursory Google search tells me it's not.

    Low volume 3 bay ss.

    Its gross is $6k a year? Why do you think the income is so low? is it off of any main roads? Or is it just soap and rinse?

    Bankruptcy

    IMO any plan that includes the serious consideration of bankruptcy from the start is a bad one.

    Sludge Sucker ?

    I wouldn't clean out a bay pit with one either, mainly because of the amount of water you have to mix with it, but I had one at a wash I ran many years ago and used it to clean out the silt trap. It was massive, about 12' across and at least as deep, so I know it will lift the sludge. I...

    Advice on welders

    Welders who can TIG stainless charge a premium. Anyway I ordered a stick/TIG unit.

    WashWorld Profile vs Ryko Maxx 5 vs Oasis i5

    The Freestyler is pretty low maintenance and highly reliable, as well as low damage. I know a guy who had one and replaced it with a Cube a couple years ago. He said the Cube is faster and still does a better wash. Evidently the biggest issue with any Belanger is support, so you need a good...
