    Typical yearly IBA throughput

    I went out to this site and went through this wash it is fast and did a good job. This is the machine that is in my future after this virus thing is over. Our site is sloooow right now.

    Petit 360 or Typhoon owners sound off

    I have timed all the washes green light to green light. I think that is a fair honest way of timing the wash.

    Petit 360 or Typhoon owners sound off
