    Need help with water problem

    If you need 100% soft water 100% of the time, you need a twin alternating softener. It does not use more salt than a single, in fact with a single you either need to let it run hard until it regenerates at 2 am or you have to regenerate short of its capacity and waste salt and water. I suppose...

    Strange issue with Custom Kraft setup

    I don't know on those, should be easy enough to figure out by tracing the timed load from the timer to the switch. The rest would be the same.

    Theft / vandalism in desperate times

    If you can place cameras to see your equipment, you don't need one in every bay, but it sure is nice to be able to watch the bays for loiterers, dumpers, mobile mechanics, etc.

    Probably cheap. It's Watts brand A4000 resin.

    Strange issue with Custom Kraft setup

    If it helps, look at the numbers on the switch. If it's an 8 position, 11 and 21 are timed load input and correspond with stop, 12 will be the first selection clockwise after stop, 13 the next, etc. If it's a 10 position, 10 and 20 are the input, 11 is the first selection clockwise, etc. I'm...

    Belanger's dryer impellers are steel. I've never seen one out of balance.

    New Washify Pay Station for IBA's

    I haven't seen them in about six years, but it was a bit higher for the transaction fee, plus another 6¢ to eXact. SS bays was much worse because running count-up meant each swipe counted as two transactions.

    Need help with water problem

    No, but only because the last time I bought resin locally it was $55 per cubic foot. That would be around $1500 including the filter gravels.

    Strange issue with Custom Kraft setup

    I'd check the plug first. The power could be getting all the way to the light in the plug but not through it to the coil.

    Bank not taking coins

    I agree with CC acceptance, not so much with bill acceptors. I feel they're too much of a target, and customers don't trust them. Sometimes all they have is a $10 or $20 and they don't want to spend it all to wash. For a lot of my customers, even $5 at once is too much because they want to...

    New Washify Pay Station for IBA's

    I went to their page, zoomed out until their prototype was 5.5", and it's not too bad since it's usually four buttons, and that could be enhanced with color-coded graphics. It might be hard to punch in a code, depending on how big the virtual buttons end up - the prototype doesn't show.

    New Washify Pay Station for IBA's

    It's better than Hamilton's fees if you're running high-speed processing.

    Strange issue with Custom Kraft setup

    The coil might be bad, or you could have a wiring issue or possibly a bad plug. You didn't specifically say that you tried a different coil on the Bug Off, but if you did and the solenoid still doesn't open, that would point hard to an electrical problem.

    Need help with water problem

    Call River City Water if you need more softener work done. They're very good and affordable. Or I would have helped you, it takes me about 5 hours to do a twin 120k system by myself. I'll bet you called Bob Johnson or Culligan for what you were charged, you probably could have replaced the...

    Hole size for LED 7

    The standard Lexan plate for the LED7 is 3" wide, so it'll just cover it. The timer is 1/8" wider than that.

    Soda price in your vendor?

    Nice, the only time I've ever seen one of those was at a five-and-dime on some small town when I was a kid. Of course I didn't know you had to turn the knob first before you deposited money and I got something I didn't want. If you ever find for sale one like that or one that vends the 10 oz...

    Strange issue with Custom Kraft setup

    Most likely that, or something is clogged.
