    Help Needed: Persistent Pump Cavitation Issue in 3-Bay Self-Serve Car Wash

    That looks like a belt-drive pump, not a direct-drive pump, although that has nothing to do with the issue.

    What is this dispenser called and where can i find it?

    They look like tri-foam shower heads and many places sell them. Is this on a tunnel wash?

    To DO/NOT DO list on self service/auto bay purchase?

    Just to be sure, you are buying the land with them right? Is the income year over year trending up or down? Are there any new express exterior washes nearby, being built, or in planning? You can contact the city to see if any have been approved recently. They are sprouting like weeds around here.

    Or the filter bags are not in correctly if they are like the JE Adams bags that have the plastic band that needs compressed out of round to get to fit in the hole.

    3 bay SS farthest bay soap issue

    Do you have the flow meters for soap and polish? If so they should be adjustable and you can open it up more. There are many other things it could be but that is potentially a few easy fix.

    Monorail domes

    If they are round you might be able to retro-cobble another brand of dome onto them.

    FTC makes final rule on "Click to Cancel"

    I think this will really cost the corporate express exterior washes because most are so difficult to cancel a membership and they probably count on that extra revenue. Dencar is not too hard to cancel but they might need to make the button easier to see. I'm also speculating there might be some...

    Rotary switch briefly kills power to Dixmor timer

    You can't find the IDX website because they are out of business. Supposedly another company opened them back up but they don't have a website either. I can't remember what it's called. I think the word Dynamics is in the name of the company. Maybe I should have said the LED modules are bad, I...

    Do you also need a programmer for it? Dixmor timers do not need those.

    Rotary switch briefly kills power to Dixmor timer

    After thinking more on this I don't know why it would reset the time with a power interruption. Usually if it loses power while there's time left it remembers it when it regains power and continues count down. I checked it again today and although the time does not get reset now the version...

    Rotary switch briefly kills power to Dixmor timer

    At least that is what it appears to me. It is a D&S combo vac that I bought used, had an IDX Big Time timer, and an 8 position 3 deck rotary switch. The timer had a bunch of bad LED display modules so I converted it over to a Dixmor LED 9 multifunction timer. After wiring it up I noticed that...

    Security & Preventative Measures

    Now that is a different animal. The body shop a few doors down takes really good photos of cars that come in and again after washing them due to this issue. Maybe your client can do something similar.

    Input on two SS wash purchases?

    I like to check every function on every bay every day. Some might consider it too time consuming and wasteful but we like to find as many issues as we can before many customers see them. We have some long time customers that tell us things always work perfect but we know that is not true. :LOL:
