Why Apoligize- Now he knows he was right! Your wash will be better off without him! John

I don't think i would buy it jim, but maybe the market is somewhere else. To me it would be perfect at hwy rest stops as our states are unattended. So the market could still be somewhere. John

I talked to baca's changers on monday , Rowe had just shipped them out I guess, Maybe only a couple of weeks left. I think the smart money is on the Mars conversion. Now that rowe has a mars conversion, I think they are one step closer to a "acceptable" changer. john

I can't believe they don't stop printing it, and stick to the coin, we need acceptors that have the learning capability, to run a bill thru and just learn it. John

My Vector prices were 4,5,6- Until today. I had looked at this post and considered a $3 wash -No dry. But most of the washes i sell were the top washes and maybe 25% the cheap wash, So I moved them all down one notch on WS11 and decided to experiment with an ultimate wash- more Rain X -double...

Thanks mac, I hadn't looked at the spacing until now, and thought 2sec was a little short, I am going to try 4 sec between each blower and see if the demand next month changes, thanks John

The blowers on my dryers start 2 seconds apart. Is this enough time to have the lowest demand charges, Is peak power needed until full output is realized or just the first second or two. Anyone know the best start sequence, all 10hp. Thanks John

I don't think in our state it matters who is president, we are so forgotten, in a big state with only 600K pop. Not a one of them will make a difference to us, we are a republican state with 2 Dem. senators, the token dems. are suppose to bring the pork for the farmers. And they do, but it...

I am with you- that is a big chunk of quarters for us self serve guys. Plus airfare to Orlando is pretty high. I think our wallets will be pretty thin after disney also. I think i'd like to try either the SE or SW show the next time for a change. I wanted to go to the K-rite expo but couldn't...

I am in a colder climate than you, but am heating all my car washes with floor heat. I think it recovers quickly from opened doors due to the large mass. I am not sure about the temp swings you may find in a work environment, or the time it takes to change the temp. I think which ever way you...

I am closing down at 7-8pm when well under zero, our nightly temps have been closer to -20 or so. We have been closing early, not really because of the cold, but all the non-paying customers that come in to be mechanics, belts,oil changes, for us it seems like everthing but washing goes on. John

I can't see anything to be gained by going to FL lighting from the MH. I looked up the specs 175 MH 17500 lumens 250 MH 25000 Lumens 86 w FL 6800 Lumens I use 2 250 MH per bay and have Have 5 175 MH in T-free You will need alot of fl lighting to keep up with the MH. Do not be...

http://shaggysdogwash.com/ Check out the website for the self serve dog wash in our town i guess it is quite popular- more like a hair salon, it is in a strip mall. they are not very cheap, but it is run more like a business, than just throwing the stainless tub in the corner. Their website...

http://www.timeanddate.com/ Found this interesting about all the sunrise ,sunset times, Moonrise etc. John

I would try marketing with the brake place across the street with a card and a code for a discount wash, it will help both of you ,also at other businesses in a mall nearby or a c-store without a wash. try door to door. I recently had a doorknob paper at my house by a stockbroker going around...

I lost a friend i had for 15 years, he helped at the wash, and helped himself, replacing quarters with tokens, a dollar here and there, about $15 a day.also Making change with customers, in exchange with tokens. Quick story: an owner had someone in town check on his bartenders, The one he...

Eric, I've been waiting for you to report back, before i bought a few my self, do you have any pictures of the timers and card swipe- thanks John
