    Survival; Just bought a car wash, Now tunnel opening a block away

    If it is a national chain that builds washes frequently, I hate to tell you, but pretty sure a lot of these guys can get one built and running in less than 1 year, probably closer to 6 months for the national chains that build multiple units a year. Also, if another wash co already passed on...

    Pumping water very slow

    Do you have enough water at the inlet of the pump? What about right at the exit of pump is you take the pvc off, how's the flow?

    Beneficial Ownership Filing.

    Texas federal Court just ruled this unconstitutional and there is a national injunction on filing. No need to file for now, but there will be more developments as this most likely flows through appeals...

    Mark VII Aquajet XT PMP-K20-F086:Fuse Tripped Error

    Problem still exists with the new pump. We'll keep trying to troubleshoot, but it's an intermittent fault happening about once a month, so going to be really hard to pinpoint. Always happens when switching away from a Low Pressure function, never in the middle of an application, so pointing...

    Best place to buy trash cans

    Can also use a hand truck with the chemical drums. But with rolling trash cans, you can roll 2 at a time to the dumpster, hand truck is 1 at a time

    CAT Pumps 1540E - Pressure Issue

    Did this start suddenly or over time? What kind of tips? Are they new? Worn out tips causing too much flow demand and decreased pressure? You sure your gauge working correctly? Just throwing out ideas. You can still test with a regular bay gun with an adapter in pretty sure. Turn your regulator...

    Dear customer please don't hate me

    I wouldn't use this as your guide, there are some shady dealers and service centers out there.

    CAT Pumps 1540E - Pressure Issue

    One thing I was told to try on SS pumps on this forum is to hook a bay hose and gun directly to the pump outlet to eliminate anything down stream as a diagnostic test. Probably can do something similar on a bigger cat pump also.

    Need Help to add Card Option in my carwash

    The 3 main contenders are nayax, cryptopay, and money. All have positives and negatives, you'll have to do your research, as HeyVern said there are many threads on here about it already

    Monex connection help

    I believe external stop buttons are necessary with count up, and are a big factor on how successful count up is at a wash

    Erie hogs hair

    We use the metal ones, but the paint does flake off before the brush wears out a lot of the time on the hog daddy. Hog king we use metal also, no issues with paint on those. Both get good life, better than we got with Erie. Foaming pattern is not as good as Erie, but still gets nice and foamy.

    Erie hogs hair

    Wow - 200 heads per year and they can't be bothered...we have had issues with Erie heads also and moved away from them about a year or 2 ago to hog daddy and hog king brushes. Both have worked well for us. On another note - bravo to you for needing 200 brush heads a year! That's some wash volume!

    Monex connection help

    Count up works fine on nayax with the external stop button. Maybe the problem is monex if you can't setup the readers the way you want.

    Issue with Hamilton Mfg Code System

    Thats the beauty of it, Amazon (and many others) will "rent" you their servers to use at a very affordable rate. So Hamilton would be getting super reliability at a very reasonable cost.

    Issue with Hamilton Mfg Code System

    They can't control how long internet is out with an outside provider, but a company of that size that is hosting solutions for their customers should have at least one backup internet connection and probably more. A better solution, they should probably be using offsite servers for their hosted...
