2Biz, All good information & I trust that their sensors are fail safe & exhaust no byproducts of combustion to be concerned about. The valves I were referring to ... definitely were not the gas valves. Gas valves normally have regulators after the valve so there would not be a need to balance...

2Biz, Thanks for giving me a chance to clarify. The Gerand Metering Valve comment was unrelated to the Mr Heater ... so that is probably where the temporary confusion is. It is just that it appeared to me that you went through a process of tweaking flows of some of your ball valves. I...

2Biz, Good idea on the heater ... that way if you were not able to respond to a temperature alarm ... the non dependent on electricity heater ... probably is pretty fail safe. At one time, we had a ventless heater but discontinued it because of carbon monoxide & other axhaust concerns. On the...

Eric - cwguy, I was face to face :mad: with Mr. Deficit Maker (who can be seen in our below deficit reduction video) ... this morning. Basically, I confronted him about that incident that Bigleo linked the video to. It was a very heated exchange. He started shouting at me that I unfairly was...

Whale - John Me too ... since weather wise we face almost identical logistics ... ditto on your comments. Just to add about the dilemma of closing vs being open: The very numerous gas station washes have been open daily including Christmas Day. Well to make a long story short ... after a...

Bigleo, Thanks for the info. Since this type of fraud could be pertinent to self service car wash operators ... my guess is that MicroCoin QL, IDX, Parker, & Winnipeg's I Coin etc have no difficulty rejecting those counterfeits making the attempting person pretty obvious in person &/or on...

Just because a few of you guys think that the following items is not inter-related to Kevin James's original topic & follow-up ... does not make the following items less factual, true & most certainly relevant & related. Law enforcement is already tangled up with trying to solve these more "in...

John, We had a similar situation where the remote would work on the Dixmors on our Vacs but would not work on our new revised coin boxes in the bay. We went to the back of the Dixmors & went through the programming process through the back of the Dixmor itself ... not just trying the buttons...

Mark, I really do feel this Is relevant to a more natural check & balance to help with the uncertainties of futuristic payment methods. Similar to when cwguy referred to what we laundromat owners have always been aware of as another source of competition. In our case no where in our state do...

John, I am not sure how Randy is doing timewise; but I am pretty sure if anyone would know besides Dixmor themselves is him ... there is a chance he can possibly walk you through whatever. On your DX-2000s, if I remember right it seems those are the ones that Galen tipped me ... on to their...

Kevin & others, To me if they do that ... I will have to probably replace three Paypal Here cell phone card swipers & like I mentioned before a credit card receptacle on my ATM. I am sure glad I did not laugh too much at certain specific laundromat owners when about 5 years ago the...

BigLeo48 & others, Respectfully... I see where you & some others with larger operations where you are comfortable with "vaporware" type of hi tech "more in the dark" costly transitions & potential ID manipulations like the 40 million Target situation etc ... are coming from. As far as the 40%...

Kevin & Earl, Note the comments by specialists in the field about pins & signatures: http://www.mailtribune.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20131228/BIZ/312280303 This just reinforces that we should all agree that for at least a portion of our business ... especially self serve ... we should...

Everyone's operation is different so I am not saying the following is a good fit for everyone: Since there is a growing number of operators who also have a laundromat &/or other attributes ... now have an ATM ... it would be helpful to have an ATM that also gives out higher denomination coins...

Kevin, http://www.csmonitor.com/Business/Latest-News-Wires/2013/1224/Target-hackers-Weak-card-security-made-Target-a-juicy-target In our case it would be just the one card swiper on our ATM. From what I gathered it seems that Target will be bearing the brunt of the costs ... hopefully the...

Mike Vukelic, Thanks for sharing, it gives some of us the opportunity to reach out ... back to you. I will never forget nor not appreciate your hospitality & patience when I visited with you in Houston less than a year ago. Hopefully, at least one lung will carry on ... think of the new Pope...

The second diagram by Dultmeier appears to be possibly identical to Randy's & 2Biz's pump stand approach. It does leave a person in the dark somewhat to the exact sizing of the tubing &/or hoses going in & out & also to the specific part numbers for the components. Also, both diagrams do not...

Almaprowash & others, Just a thought. I know this is not what you asked but I would not rule out turning your cell phone into a universal remote. If someone is using more than one brand of remote controllable timer (2 templates needed) ... it could be extra practical ... no need to carry...
