I do not know how this figure is arrived at but IMO for those of us in the snow / salt belt it's meaningless. Annual volume means little since winter months can do triple the volume of summer months. So, you need to anticipate the bread and butter days when you can turn it up to 11. Those are...

I may have missed the point of the OP. A faster speed will use less of everything. But it has to get the job done at a comfort level for the customer.

IMO the 1 car / foot / hour is old math. I think Tommy has videos out there with 180 and 200+ CPH but conditions such as stuff being frozen or cooked on can dictate a slower process. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvD84R4-o8A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=grard7HzC1o A Belt is more...

I use KR FB soap and it does not freeze at recommended dilution.

Yes, I think I red where they got them in the local Costco or Sam's Club.

Their are issues with the medium and issues with the message. Our grocery store coupon offer was free sealer wax with the coupon. In a good month we might get 200 coupons. I have no idea how many of these were from new customers. To try and ramp up volume at a badly beaten down place I...

We used to do it ourselves but disposing of it became troublesome. We call the pitsucker. They charge by the truckload and typically they will not fill the truck from the pit so they will use the rest of the space by taking as much as they can hold from the settling pits. A truckload just...

My thought is a definite maybe. There is some thought that when cash is converted to coupons people may tend to use the coupon more frequently because using the coupon is not like spending real money. There is also the potential that they may share them with others thereby increasing...

Since I do not have pay stations I sell a pack of coupons. Basic wash is 7 for $20.00 so as to be below the local $3.00 competition. Having separate coupons allow the customer to use them among various vehicles. So, some fleets buy them as well, often $200.00 at a time. . Also allows them to...

My order Rain X Sealant drying agent Setting arch. I do not delete drying agent when I apply rain X or sealer.

The location I share with a Gas station had them selling washes when my Landlord operated it. Now, the new tenant has refused and it has not seemed to make any difference. Perhaps the bottom line is even better since I no longer have to discount those or give them a cut.

Grocery store receipt coupons worked fairly well. I also support local charities by donating washes . Hoping the exposure will generate repeat business. When I frequent a local merchant or restaurant i often leave a coupon for a free wash. Local Chambers of commerce can provide networking...

Thru bolt. Had to re do this for several at a place I took over. Expansion anchors in solid block is iffy. Buy Stainless rods, washers, lock nuts.

I have one where the landlord ran the gas station. Did not want to be bothered running the wash. Later he rented the gas station to someone else. I thought I could turn the place around and did. He's happy to collect his check every month.

Of my 4 locations two are rented. At the end of the day it's about making money. Many businesses prefer to put capital to work in ways other than property ownership. Walgreen's is a well known example. You need to figure this into exit strategy as well.

I also use coupon for free washes to promote the business. At a local restaurant I ad it to generous tip. I give them to other local businesses as I frequent them as well.

Immediate family - Free. Other relatives and occasional a friend I give a coupon for free wash to. IMO you should patronize friends because they give quality service at a good price.

This won't help much. As the air expands it cools, - cool air hold less moisture. This cooling will continue down stream and point of use may be 100 feet from the compressor and in a cooler environment.

Suggestions Google "assumption Risk" See if any of that helps. Bring your rabbit's foot and lucky penny.

I like this - Automatic drain. Put downstream nearest the unit that uses the air. https://www.mcmaster.com/#4958k31/=1bb9j6l
