It is all set up when you configure your swipers on the control panel. you set minimum and maximum charge, how many seconds per pulse, pulse is .25. I found with a lower max charge, I don't get any calls. I do have signs explianing the max charge. but they don't get red much....

I have sourced a couple on ebay. seemed decent enough for money and shipping was included.

Maybe a hand car washing service? Maybe even find a closed to lease to put it in. Wouldnt cost much to set up for hand washing. Or you might even be able to buy it and eventually get it going again. We got started about 3 years ago when I found a bank foreclosed 4 bay plus IBA. Paid 35,000 to...

The motor is IR but also marked WAG or something. runs at 1550rpm. So far its been on about 48 hours straight. I installed a neon pilot light in the new starter to indicate power to the starter so i'll see on my camera if/when trips again. I'm much more relaxed since my old reliable Sanborn...

My 2 cents (tokens?) is if you go ahead and use tokens, get the higher security type. I went with a basic brass token for "cheap" and have in 3 years collected about 150.00 in tokens we did not sell. (CiCi pizza, good dental visits, and mostly brand new ones from the previous operator of our...

7.5 HP. Tank check valve was bad when I took over wash and was replaced then, I guess it could get stuck closed and cause something like this. I'll replace it again, it was cheap and easy. Same for pressure switch. Both make more sense than motor and cheaper too!

My wife and I have recently finished a month of updates to one of our washes, new FRP panels in all the bays new signs and paint (which lasted less than 3 years since we bought and renovated the firs time). Anyway, we have started arriving at the wash to find the air compressor breaker (in the...

LIke I said I will turn if off next time I'm there. It makes no sense to me either, I think it was a defaut settin in the LED 6 I must have missed when I swapped a new LED 6 last summer when the original one went bad and had to be sent in for repair. I can see an extra token or 2 on a 20.00...

That is my plan. I see no marketing advantage, especially if I have it hidden LOL.

Thank you sir!

not seen this before. customer left the bay and the LED 6 was just displaying -ON- not time left. He was a token payer not on credit card. I was afraid to leave the wash with a bay turned "ON" not counting down so I hit the reset button on the back of the LED6 and it went back to normal. How did...

Thanks all. I too have noticed big jumps in tip choice. guess I will switch at least this one to a new hydrominder. When it does it the chain is slack the float is up into the top of the tank and fluid running over the top. I cant make it stick no matter side pressure, how slow I let the chain...

Most commercial real estate purchase and sale agreements contain a feasability study time as well as contingency for financing. You can "lock down" the property and then make sure it appraises and can be financed afterward. After all if you don't buy it, the next owner might want to be in the...

OK twice I have been called to one of my washes with a dreaded "there is green fluid running out under your door". First reason for this call is this particular wash never had a floor drain in the equipment room.... However in both cases I arrived to find my tire cleaner tank overflowing with...

Looks like a pretty good setup to me. Compact, all stainless. unless there is some electronic nightmare behind the panels with the lights that tell you what is cycling at the moment. I would fix and run what you got. In fact I would have loved to UPGRADE this setup for my second location...

Thanks, I like that idea. I was thinking of adding a bug off but your idea does not require another hydrominder tank.

10 position: presoak, tire cleaner, HP soap, Foam Brush, 2 spots with HP rinse, Tri Foam, HP wax, LP spot free rinse, Oh, and stop.

Im using what was left over from prior owner, its time to get something to restock. Since the dial says "wax" and based on the scum layer that was in the old tank system I replaced, I think it really might be a wax, but not seeing a lot of choices for a "wax" to go on at high pressure. Have...

My first wash is only 50 minutes away from home and that gets old 4 or 5 times a week. (thought I could get by with 3 trips a week). So we hired a couple to empty trash and wash down pays 4 days a week and we still go 2 or 3 times a week and more often when something breaks, and it will. W...
