    Hamilton Goldline IDTech upgrade doors

    Tamper is a security feature, so not surprising unit has to go back to get reset. Are you getting clean power consistently? That could cause this as well, I was having a sinilar issue with another brand of reader at my retail store a decade ago on 4 cash registers. A high quality UPS solved...

    Anybody tried Universal boartex brushes?

    Update on this in case someone comes back later. We tried the fake hogs hair from 2 companies and neither were even close to actual hogs hair. We have gone back to the KR brand of hogs hair brushes everywhere.

    Mark VII Aquajet XT PMP-K20-F086:Fuse Tripped Error

    At this point we have replaced every piece of the LP pump side system, seems like the last item we replaced, the vfd, was the culprit this whole time. Only time will tell if the problem is gone for sure.

    What’re yall using for an air compressor?

    Auto drains are so cheap and easy to setup, should be standard equipment for any car wash nowadays. Even the name brand ones aren't that pricey for the automation and cheap insurance they provide.

    What’re yall using for an air compressor?

    Lot of reports out there that the new Quincy compressors are not what they used to be. Same with the IR compressors. Seems like luck of the draw maybe. For SS, harbor freight oil lubed works fine, setup a hot spare like Wyatt said, and you have an almost bullet proof air system.

    Air Logic no longer makes their in-bay dryer system

    This will tend to happen when your product is basically assembly of 90% off the shelf parts. Frankly, I'm surprised no one else has started making similar products to compete before this. Also, I'm thinking the previous owners of Air Logic saw this coming and sold out before it hit their sales...

    Spot Free Issue

    Probably still bad check valve on a spot free line in one or more of your bays. High pressure making its way back and blowing out at the point of least resistance

    So what would you do (self serve bay abuse)

    Publicly shaming someone is never something that will bring them to your corner

    So what would you do (self serve bay abuse)

    Wonder how far his social and professional net goes? You know he won't blame himself when he tells people the story and not to go to your wash. I think there is a lot more to lose than to gain by shaming someone like this. My 2 cents, but like you said, you do you

    Bought a rundown wash

    If the customer sees a price increase without any appreciable improvements, they usually will not be too thrilled about that. What are your competitors at for pricing? Hate to say it, but there may have been a reason it was run into the ground.

    Tri Foam in Self Serve

    What size tip are you using in your guns? Are the foam generators clean and allowing full flow? Maybe try removing a generator to see if that fixes your issue.
