In my experience, the hose will break or tear out of the fitting before it can break anything. The 3/8" barb would be a weak point for it to break, sounds like a good idea if you're worried about the boom getting damaged. I use a 3/8" male x 3/8" female "adaptor" in the high pressure booms for...

Are you sure it's the timer and not a bad coin acceptor or wiring?

https://www.facebook.com/pages/category/Car-Wash/Island-Shine-Car-Wash-363715146976600/ I have not been through it, but I've done some work there.

New friction machines and the material they use is much safer on paint. You can output a cleaner car at a significantly lower cost to you with friction. People on this forum who have friction and touchless in the same location say their customers gravitate toward the friction. Most of...

You could potentially do $3,000 a month per SS bay, $15,000 in the auto, another $4,000 from vacs and vending, I don't know dog washes but let's say $2,000. That's best case scenario. From there, start adding up the things that count against it. Small town population, you're on a main highway...

Bad things happen when you have a religion with extreme rules (Islam forbids images of Muhammed) which also has extremist sects.

That's D&S for ya.

A lot of car washes in coastal areas are built with a lot of wood because steel will rust out very quickly. You didn't ruffle feathers as much as you made yourself look ignorant.

If there's only the one line coming off the pump, you really don't need the solenoid. It's a DEMA 453P, which won't hold gravity flow from the tank without some pressure behind it. A good high-pressure check valve with 5 PSI cracking pressure will do the same job. Most units have a second...

You really want that to be your fifth post in nine and a half years?

Don't worry about it, you don't owe anyone an apology. Just because he made tokens work in his wash doesn't make it the right fit for you.

It hardly matters where you buy Dewalt or Milwaukee since neither is made in the U.S.

I have at another wash I was involved with. I basically copied what's on most gas pumps. It helped, but didn't stop the calls. People don't read signs, and once they're mad the signs are invisible to them.

You might start with less than that, assuming you mean you'll offer based on the land and building. If the wash is that bad, it might only be worth the value of the land MINUS the cost to demolish the building.

One of the answers on the Amazon page says 2 PSI.

I've been told that the bank is responsible for the hold and how long it takes to clear, not Cryptopay or your merchant service. It can vary from a few hours to ten days.

American Changer now owns Rowe. There are others out there who can repair them, but American will do it right, has the ability to test it thoroughly, and they won't gouge you on the cost.

Epoxy anchors. Home Depot has the Hilti epoxy and sleeves, but you'll have to find an 11/16" masonry bit at a specialty store or Zoro.

Pulsation dampeners are only there to smooth the normal vibration of a pump. There is no way a bad one will cause an issue like this. There's probably a pocket of air building somewhere in the inlet plumbing that eventually gets to the pump.

He could reuse everything but the door, the timer, and the function decal. Wouldn't hurt to go to an electric coin acceptor, but he doesn't need to. Why?
