    Electric vehicle charging stations

    Electric vehicle charging stations

    Look into the Electrify America grants. I’m thinking about taking this up once I finally sign on the line for my car wash (taking forever). My plans are to have a fast charger, install an adjacent vacuum and standalone vending machine and crest a “tidy up as you charge” situation. There are...

    Hot water heater 100% required?

    Appreciate it! I'll start doing some digging on that now. The person I was speaking with with the propane company regarding tank sizing was pretty adamant that I needed a lot more than 1 199,999 BTU tankless for my setup... of course you can never tell if they are selling you or being honest...

    Hot water heater 100% required?

    Hello all. New here, and starting myself off in this industry so please don't kill me if this is a stupid question. I am in the process of leasing a 5 bay self serve car wash on the east coast (Delaware), where our winters are decently mild. The car wash used to have an oil fueled boiler...
