    Air logic or Air shammee

    Diskin's dryer motor cover brackets allow for cover to sit about 3" - 4" away from the wall, all the way around. Air flow is sufficient! The original covers came with an open hole, that I covered with a SS boat vent cover, to help protect the motor from direct spray. The new covers no longer...

    insurance?

    Wow, that's cheap insurance! Yes, be grateful! In March 2024, I paid Oregon Mutual $3818 for 1-year liability insurance for 42 year old, 5-bay SS wash in Northern California. Concrete building. My deductible was $2500. I sold my wash in December 2024, so I don't know how much the rates are...

    insurance?

    We're members of Western Carwash Association (WCA) and found the best price for liability insurance in California. They pool car washes to get group pricing. Do you belong to your local Carwash Association? Might be worth looking into.

    Just found out our own Uncle Sam passed away

    I met Jim at a ICA convention about 20 years ago, when my husband and I had just purchased our car washes. We were green, tired and overwhelmed! Jim WAS MEMORABLE!! :ROFLMAO: He was tall, lanky and dressed in an outrageous red, white & blue outfit - just like Uncle Sam! Even though we didn't...

    What to do with competitors tokens?

    I take mine to a local metal recycler who pays me for the scrap metal.

    HAMILTON BILL ACCEPTOR NEEDS SERVICE

    Does Dan Wesolaski with X-Cel Electronics in Las Vegas, NV sound familiar? Dan's been fixing my Hamilton DRS equipment for the past 21 years, at my SS car wash. He's a certified Hamilton technician, super nice, friendly and very experienced! I'm not sure how old your equipment is, but it...

    Air logic or Air shammee

    Someone recently posted here that Air Logic was recently bought out. I would call KR and find out if they can still get the nozzles from Air Logic. I hope they don't discontinue them, they work the BEST with Diskin's Air dryers!

    More customer insanity

    You are SO RIGHT Waxman! :D Stupid interruptions waste so much time! Most of my experiences were from young people, I guess who were never taught to "try" or "be curious"?? Like Soapy's experience, I would get at least 1 person a day who didn't know that you needed to turn the rotary knob to...

    More customer insanity

    Frustrating how quick customers are to blame. Cameras are priceless - can't argue with facts!! Whew, so glad you had them & they apologized. 😃

    JE Adams Turbo Towel

    I too looked at the Turbo Towel, but went with Diskin's Air Shammee in 2018. I preferred their colorful plastic motor cover. You don't need a heat filament. Just another part to go bad. As the motor blades rotate from use, it will naturally heat the air. Search this topic on CW Forum &...
