Anyone know why or what's causing there to be chemicals in my solenoid (? relief valve? I believe it's called???)? It is happening on 3 of the chemicals but not on my other ones

I am at wits end. I have a 4 bay. Bay 1 and 4 guns vibrate heavily after a bad winter freeze. Bay 1 more than 4. I have had to turn the PSI down to stop the vibrations. I operate at 1200psi but have it down to 500 so it won’t vibrate. I have opened the valve by the reservoir tank. I have raised...

I have two washes and need funding. I have an LLC but can’t get approved for a personal business loan. Where can I get a loan? My DBA is almost 1 year old and my LLC is only a couple months old. Most banks want you to wait 2 years. Need money now for renovations/remodeling/repairs. Also, where...

Good day all- I am looking for information on the equipment as a whole, the price it would be per bay. Is there a preferred brand? A distributor informed me of an astronomical number per bay OTD price and I can't help but think this is a rip-off. I am new to the field so any info will be...

I've heard about a new ceramic coating by Xpel that my local paint protection shop is offering. I was wondering if anyone else is using it or knows anything about it. The shop is LineZero Protection, and I know they're legit, but it seems to be very new stuff and I'm just uncertain. thank you!

Hello Everyone, I am completely new to this industry and I am currently looking to purchase a SS 4 bay with 3 vacuums. These appear to be great investments, but I am struggling to understand / confirm an approximate income and average maintenance costs, etc. to justify the purchase. While I...

Well, at least I think its a potential hydrominder issue. Our high pressure wash soap peters out over time. Check valve on the cat pump has been replaced. Hydrominder has been replaced. If we hold down on the chain and fill the tank, it instantly starts working in all 3 bays again. If we let the...

I’ve got a signature series by Ryko, I’ve got an issue with my motors I believe. I can run the self serve like normal using the high pressure rinse, or spotless. Not all the time, but occasionally, all the motors will stop. Timer will still be active, can still use everything else but anything...

Hey guys, I’ve got a Ryko signature series self serve station. I had this issue with bay 3 with a solenoid that was bad holding my valve open. Before I ordered the block with new solenoids/coils I was tinkering with it and pulled the solenoid/coil off and went outside to mess with bay 3 from the...

I’m new to the world of Carwash ownership and figuring it out as I go. I have lost all pressure on all low pressure items in all 4 bays. D&S setup, cat pumps, flojet g57, d&s meter boxes.
