    High Pressure Floats

    No but I'll try to remember to measure it today.

    New chemistry that I almost passed on - then WOW

    Did you ever think about using spot free water instead of city water for mixing presoak? It might be extreme but if your water has high TDS then it could help from what I understand. (we have not tried it ourselves)

    Dang! Your Razor washed all that stone off the car? Pretty impressive!

    Vacuum vs Vacuum combos???

    It can differentiate you from other washes but overall I'm not sure they are worth it. We have several and they don't do much better (worse when considering maintenance) than a regular vac but I know we have customers that come to us because of them. It is similar to offering vending.

    Dencar self serve credit card system coming soon

    Maybe I should have said Soon-Ish. He said they have been testing several different manufacturers of readers and most are not good enough. One that I think was tried (and not holding up) was made by Kiosoft which I believe is who makes Monex. That does not mean that it is the same reader but it...

    High Pressure Floats

    Another thing I want to point is that we get a fair amount of sediment in the bottom of the tank that looks like fine sand. Do you guys get that in your tank? Surely that wears on the seals.

    High Pressure Floats

    No hammer. No sloshing. No wave pool. 😁

    High Pressure Floats

    Good point and I should have mentioned we have pretty low pressure (40 psi) after the backflow preventer.

    central pay point for ss car washes

    Yes. ICS has a solution but it won't save you any money as it is really expensive. https://www.icscarwashsystems.com/payment-terminal-auto-sentry-cpt

    High Pressure Floats

    I believe this is the one we use and when it "goes" it just leaks a bit. It has been years since I replaced the seals in it and just last week it started leaking. I closed the inlet ball valve, drained the tank and then turned the ball valve on and let it fill with the float all the way down. It...

    Dencar self serve credit card system coming soon

    I'm not sure exactly what it can do but may give Nayax and Cryptopay a little competition.

    Things Just Got Real

    We just visited Phil in Akron OH on Friday for several hours at their flagship United Auto Wash location. (four Petit 360-i washes with 75 foot long bays) What Dencar has done and is working on is pretty impressive from what we have seen. A few years ago I'm not sure we would have been ready for...

    Dencar self serve credit card system coming soon

    Something to possibly look forward to. Phil Marquart from Dencar said they are planning on rolling it out sometime fourth quarter this year. https://www.dencartechnology.com/product/cashless-sales-unit-coming-soon/

    Crypto pay analyticsfor self serve

    Also of course it does count the total cash on each device and there's various ways to see it all.

    Crypto pay analyticsfor self serve

    It only has the capability to add them all together and call them "coins" on the dashboard. Each device has it's own resettable "vault". The issue I have is that the vaults are in percentages and not dollar amounts. You would think Cryptopay would have done a better job of this. You can set a...

    Do any Kiosks facilitate credit card surcharges?

    Why discourage card payments? Add up all the expenses related to accepting cash like counting money, bank runs, bill validator maintenance/replacement, coin accepter maintenance/replacement, security measures and changer maintenance/repairs. I bet that number to be more than CC fees and CC...

    Cameras

    I have read up on it and think it might be an issue because you are tracking people's movements. Probably should consult an attorney before doing it.

    Is it legal in your state to store them?

    Best Payment Options?

    We want to switch to Monex but will wait to see if they get the remote start function option going and implement gift/fleet cards. They also may not work on an MDB protocol vending machine but will work on pulse which I think are how Laurel drop shelf vendors work. Nayax might be fine but the...
