I feel your pain. I had Coleman WW 1.0's and 2.0's and later installed a reclaim system. Here are two links for articles I wrote for Auto Laundry News that talks about the savings and the process involved in the new install. Let me know if you need any additional information...

Hey guys, Quick question. I need to pull all the in bay automatic equipment (Jim Coleman Water Wizard 1.0) from the wash I sold in January as the new owner is giving it to me as part of the deal. I looked at everything and most of it should be easy other than getting the gantry with the on-board...

Congrats Big Leo! Buzzie

Here is a link to the post I put in the used equipment for sale section of the forum. http://www.autocareforum.com/showthread.php?11836-Lots-of-Car-Wash-Equipment-from-Wash-I-am-Shutting-Down I just realized I had the pump stand listed for $4500, I lowered the price on Ebay and Craigslist to...

I have been trying to sell a bunch of stuff from a car wash I needed to close after selling my more modern wash right down the road. I've posted it here on ACF, on Craigslist, and on Ebay. Obviously, I want too much for the equipment or it would have sold. The main items are a 6 bay Mark VII...

I had a new modern wash that I built in 2004 (that I sold in January). Recently, when someone bought the old wash a mile away and revamped it, I lowered my starting price to $1.00 for 4 min. instead of $2.50 for 4 minutes. Just to let the guy know I was there and that he would need to feel some...

try listing on thecarwashowners.com, I listed all my car wash equipment on it because the file was too large to email.

I am pretty sure down through center pipe up through charcoal bed that's why they have gravel in the bottom. I have some old notes from when I swapped out charcoal that I will look for. You might want to change charcoal while you are doing it.

Sold my in January and did OK but not 4.8X. My golf game actually got better because I am not on edge waiting for the phone to ring because someone lost a quarter. Best of luck. Curious though, if the new owner is in the business? The guy who bought mine owns 8 others and I am glad I did not...

I don't think this is a setting. This is just to tell you how many counts you are getting. Typically fronts will be around 5 or 6 and rear counts could be anything I think around 60 to 80 depending on length of vehicle. It counts counting wheel prox from when eyes break to when they open.

We've all had em'! http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2014/04/02/stephen_harper_asks_conservatives_to_investigate_mp_eve_adams_behaviour.html Glad he took it public!
