Inside the dog wash we plan on having some type of eyebolt in the corner of each stall. The reason for this is so they can temporarily tie their dog or more than one dog while they go get change or wash one dog at a time. The question for the experienced pros is: Are there considerations to...

These are 2 questions for those who have had their dog wash up & running for awhile. Is it a good idea to have a "clean up after your dog" bag dispensor like they have along public park walking trails? Is it better to have just one located just outside & not inside your dog wash?

With our Pet Wash opening soon, I am concerned about using any product that a dog might lick & be affected by it. Any thoughts?

On our 600 Series Standard Bill Changers we could order the right plate for one of our hoppers & program it the way you describe if the electronic acceptor could distinguish the token from other coins----that could be a big if. I agree with I.B. Washincars on what would make the most sense though.

MikeV, Thanks for the reply. What you say makes sense since the mounting part of the Kip & Dema solenoids are not stainless steel. My main question for my fellow operators to share the fact that the solenoids are not burning out or creating a safety hazard in that very drippy & condensating...

Kevin, I did follow your advice on the transformer hookup late last night & it appears to have solved the GFI problem ---time will tell. Sorry for not going to 24 VAC hazard post to answer but my computer is crawling for some reason so it was easier to answer here since it is related. Earl &...

I guess this is kind of a straightforward survey. Gleaned from past posts it appears like some of us are providing a more ideal quicker changeover of chemicals by having some 24 VAC solenoids out in our bays. If we do --- from experience --- is it practical or wise to have those solenoids...

coin box enclosure people at risk? I would think leaders or people involved in any coin box enclosures, which nowadays have more openings than ever, would be concerned about legal precedents that tend to gradually creep from one state to another. On the other hand, if people involved in coin...

Previous post continued. Everytime we as an industry give these inspectors a way to not use better sense we lose a little more of our livelihood! There should be some check & balance to protect us from an inspector who is not putting the facts together & using the UL/ETL argument...

Randy, In Washington State would the inspector pass if all the components are UL approved within a 7 foot by 20 inch by 7 foot height stainless steel enclosure. Would they say "no go" if a customer could potentially deliberately spray into the opening on our bill acceptor & coin acceptor...

I see where either acronym GFCI & GFI turns out to be used for both the breaker approach & & for the individual electrical outlet approach. GFCI acronym appears to be more used for the breaker version.

I said I was tempted not that I would actually do it of course there might be people who might start chanting hurry up "Go for it". Seriously, does that mean they actually guarantee that electrocution can not happen with a GFI? If it only helps to minimize the risk, it seems that a shower or...

Thanks Neighbor to the North --- Kevin, All the requirements that you listed have been met. Everything you said is consistent with other credible information that I have gathered. As a distributor & one who works closely with manufacturers & insurance companies you are very credible. You among...

24 VAC GFI Required??? Shock Hazard? Continued. Continued from previous post I asked to speak to the chief building inspector here in Bismarck who had granted the original permit & he said that the chief is not certified in electrical work so the chief would not be qualified to make that...

HELP------ I am being ganged up on in the final stages of a car-dog wash remodeling process. My Bismarck electrical contractor confirmed that the local Bismarck electrical inspector is requiring the coin box 24 VAC circuit & 24 VAC vending equipment out in all potentially wet areas such as car...

Bubbles, We have been using Independent Energy Goldline Controllers since about 1990. They are in Rhode Island. I have not checked on them lately but is seems that they may have changed their name & it seems they specialize in Solar Systems more now. The digital readouts, the ability to check...

Has anyone tried to use a hand held steamer to get away from any chemicals to breakdown scum on their FRP panels in the bays. They sure make some of those products look slick for walls on TV. I believe Shark is one of them.

Big, It is comical. It would have been nice to share the video of the guy who washed his dog in our bay many years ago & afterwards would get down like a dog & shake coaxing the dog to do his shake thing. He also ran around inside the heated bay trying to get the dog to shed more water even...

Hmmm-----Flojet does have pressures more than 60 PSI. So maybe this is do-able with air & water lines (no high voltage wiring) out to the 1st bay tank. 40-80 feet of 1/2 inch copper to the laundry water branch of piping also sounds do-able.

Do--able? Mep, You are getting us going somewhat. I wonder how tiny of a pump we could get away with to accomplish what you are saying about the absolute need for a pump? Also the pump & motor should be stainless because it seems that it would have to be mounted in the bay because of...
