    Need some advice please

    My Opinion differs on a couple of items. 1. I use non working swivels where the hose attaches to the boom swivel, and working swivels at the gun / foam brush end. The non working swivel makes the install easier than no swivel. Working swivel t gun / foam brush handle makes use easier. 2. I...

    Siamese cable

    I have 18 Cameras in operation. Started out as a lower res system. Went to 1080P with same wiring. Original system was Q See system with the much smaller gauge wire. Some 1080P cameras did Ok with it. Some bad from the get go. Now 3 more need to have wiring upgraded. 1080 P is...

    Siamese cable

    I think that is same spec. (Great Price - Thanks. 20 AWG ) for the coax and 18AWG for the power. Only concern is if the "IC" denotes some sort ofsshielding whcih may be important if the car wash environment.

    Sputtering Blowing Air out of Tire/Wheel Self Serve Low Pressure?

    I would star with 40PSI for the flo jet and 10 PSI for the air. You do not need much air for foaming. Increase air 5 PSI at a time from there.

    Perhaps there is a reason most washes use mechanical fasteners for FRP? (Not Glue)

    Sputtering Blowing Air out of Tire/Wheel Self Serve Low Pressure?

    Are you going by the white face gauges or the Black Face gauges? I hope it is not the white ones. Use the Black face ones for the settings and ignore the white face ones. (Sorry if "Black Face" is not PC:)

    Conveyor Lighting

    There are forward throw lights you can mount on the building high enough so thy don't get in the customers eyes. One of these - 400W equivalent will do the trick.

    Weep adjustment driving us crazy

    Had issue with crud in NO weep Solenoids causing them to leak . I typically use mesh strainers but decided to try a whole hose water filter which will catch finer articles. Having a Home Depot across the lot makes me try these things. I will see what happens.

    Winter foam brush soap questions

    1. I do not change pressures. 2. Varies. Per 5 Gal about $40 for AF and $80 for regular. But regular dilutes at 320 / 1. Lets use Beige as average and that is 8/1 . At 160 to one application cost would be about the same. At 8 to one you are using 20X as much. So 20X more expensive. 3...

    PVC Walls on self serve worth it?

    I use pebble finish FRP. Pebble finish is not amenable to the Graffiti scratches. Haven't seen anything better. Won't get dinged like hollow core PVC.

    NO Solenoid Valve Reccomendations

    I had the Dema 0474P and they lasted a few years but then wouldn't close. So, I just tried the Dema SODO464PS24 and that is the one that got hot after a few days and kept running although I found some crud in it and I am going to put in a "Whole House" filter in line to prevent this. I see...
