    Flojet/Compressor problem

    water/oil is getting to my flojets causing them to seize up. once I unhook the air line and manually press the end causing the water/oil to shoot out, I can hook it back up and it starts to work again. my compressor is only 8 months old and it has a water separator that I drain often. why am I...

    Delay on chemicals question ?

    are you talking about the high pressure hose to the wand or the poly hoses that are supplying the bays from the equipment room?

    Delay on chemicals question ?

    4 months new to this biz so bare with me...I haven't timed it exactly but it seems to take about 8 seconds when you change a function for the chemicals to come out of the gun. I feel like some people are probably giving up on functions like tire cleaner and presoak because the chemicals don't...

    Dema 401P Solenoid

    I will say this in my limited experience. This wash was built in 1988 and it doesn't look like many have been replaced in that amount of time so they must be pretty decent!?

    Bare with me as I've been in the business for 4 months. I have a bad solenoid I need to replace and Kleenrite has about 5 different Dema 401P Solenoids. How do I know which one to order? Not sure how to post a pic, but I can email it to someone. Thanks!!

    Thanks to Mike at JBS!

    Chaz, Thanks for the heads up...he called and left a message on Friday but for some reason it didn't register on my phone until this morning. I never even had a missed call from the number he left, so weird. I will be calling him Monday morning...thanks again!

    Thanks to Mike at JBS!

    I haven't had the same luck...called last Wednesday and Thursday with no returned call. I also did the online form on Wednesday and they acknowledged receipt, but no contact. I too read all the reviews here, and that's is why I reached out. FWIW

    How long should my hoses be?

    I don't know how to upload pics on here. The brushes have wall mount booms and they have a wall hanger for the brush. Not sure what your asking about what type of equipment? Old would be the answer, LOL! I don't care about having it long to pressure wash the concrete, I have a 3500PSI...

    How long should my hoses be?

    Trying to figure out how long my foam brush hose and spray hose needs to be? The ones now seem too long. I just bought this wash and when I watch people clean their cars the hose seems to slap against their care frequently. Not sure if that is just how it is or not. Also when the spray wand...

    Credit Card "All In Fees"

    There is an $8 per pay fee for the e port. I am not sure of any other fees. You are correct that it runs on cell phone, which means you don't have to have internet either. Again, not saying its better but it adds up to a whole lot when you are making good money at your wash. I have internet...

    Mter Box install cost

    Washregal I am in the exact same boat as you. Mac is actually coming to see my wash in a few days to look at my renovation needs. I have been quoted $500 per bay by a reputable guy in town but hes so busy he cant get to me for awhile. Not sure how your prices would compare to Florida. Mac...

    Credit Card "All In Fees"

    Curious why cryptopay is so much more popular than E-port. Especially for you guys that have washes making good amounts of money, 2.5% instead of 5%+ would add up to some huge numbers each year. Full disclosure, I don't have either yet. I am going to add credit card shortly but leaning more...

    Triple Foam for Foam Brush?

    New to this industry so I apologize for the dumb questions.. I did a search and nothing turned up so I assume its not possible. I bought a wash about a month ago and need to do a full equipment renovation. Nothing has been updated since it was built in 1988. I have done a lot of due diligence...

    Best way to count quarters?

    Ive only been in the business for a few weeks and already have figured out counting quarters isn't easy. I am not complaining too much, it could be worst, there could be nothing to count!:) I usually only empty the coin safes once a week because I have a lot of other things to tend to at the...
