    Cycle Stop Valve

    I don't know anything about the reliability of the cycle stop valve, but if it proves to be an added maintenance issue it certainly won't do you any good, and it's pretty expensive. A bigger tank would be less expensive and will cut back on the motor cycling.

    Cycle Stop Valve

    Sounds like a great idea for a home, but I don't know about a car wash or any commercial application. I would recommend a pump operated by a pressure transducer and variable frequency drive. I've seen this at several washes. It's expensive, but you have reduced electric use because the pump...

    Water leaking out of air pressure regulator.

    I did a service call for the same thing once, they said "We're sick of resetting the thermal overload on the compressor, just replace it!" So imagine how much an 80 gallon I/R compressor 2/3 full of water weighs. A half-hour of what I billed them was just draining it. Then they tried to fight...

    Water leaking out of air pressure regulator.

    There's always moisture in the air unless you live in the south Australian desert. It's normal for some to condense out no matter how often you drain the compressor. You might also have a different check valve somewhere that's failed, but you didn't mention what this regulator is for so I have...

    Water leaking out of air pressure regulator.

    It's probably coming from the compressor.

    "I'm not sure what cannabis actually smells like"

    The guys sure didn't seem to believe her. Did Johnny T really think it was going to smell like someone SMOKING weed? Billy Sprays sure knows what the good stuff should smell like, probably passes on the skunkweed a lot. I'm pretty sure he's high in the video.

    Pricing -am I out of touch?

    I was gonna say, if I paid $2.97 for that pathetic excuse for a muffin I'd be pissed. Especially when I can get four really good ones at my local grocery chain for $5. For context, how much would one muffin cost five years ago?

    Mei bill acceptor

    You never said that before. You said it either shuts down or you get a message disabled from mech/vmc. Since you've tried it in other bays and you get the same thing, this proves beyond any doubt that there is something wrong with the bill acceptor. Either AECO missed something or you got a...

    Mei bill acceptor

    If the bill acceptor shuts down with the red LED flashing 2 after rejecting a bill, the acceptor is bad. Most bay equipment doesn't have a way to shut the acceptor down.

    Lock for equipment room

    I'd recommend an auto-closer on the door and a main knob that cannot be left unlocked, plus instructions that the door never be left propped open. I had an employee for a while who would forget to lock the deadbolts at least a couple times a month. It would be simple to stick an alarm sensor...

    Laserwash 4000 procon pump replacement

    I don't know what the difference is between the bearing types, but it doesn't change the fitment of the pump. The replacement you listed will definitely fit and work.

    Air Booms are having trouble staying against my wall.

    Make sure the boom is mounted correctly. The top of the boom's vertical pipe should be closer to the wall than the bottom.

    disclaimer sign

    It's not about having them comply, it's about having the disclaimer when they do something stupid like leave a propane cylinder with a rope tied to it in the bed to get caught in the top brush and beat the s**t out of the next car in line. I've seen it happen.
