I second the jobe valve, especially in cold water. Try this one first before you try anything else.... I went through 3 brands before I found jobe through the forum. Now I have 4 in use and 1 as a backup (most of the time the valve portion fails and it is designed so that portion separates...

I agree with RPH. If you are new, you will most likely get overwhelmed with all the new data. Ive been 4x, and the first year I was a newbie, and I was definitely over stimulated. Now its just fine, because I am a very hands-on owner, and haven't had a service tech at my wash in the last 8...

The disparety is fascinating. Last month my CC sales in 2 self serve bays and one dog wash was 39.3% of my gross. For my Auto, it was 69.7% of gross. Of course, in my self serve bays i'm count-up... maybe that is a difference...

If its not the motor its probably a short in the wire leading to the motor. (or a bound-up gear box, but I would start with looking for a short first.)

I installed these after another one of my t5 ballasts failed (not quite vapor proof enough) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00P6QE1K8/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 amazon is out of stock right now, but I like it. At night it gives off a bluer light, but it makes it seem...

Poor sooner... its almost like everyone is purposefully ignoring your question... so I'll give it a shot. And its not because of any duck guilt from when you guys came over here and lost in the last couple of minutes... Generic response: "what cleans in my area may not clean in your area...

Spend $400, fly over there, shake his hand, look at his equipment, watch it load onto the trailer, hand him a cashiers check (or go to his bank and wire it over)... fly home. Consider the $400 and a day of your time insurance, and if all of that is not worth your time, then you aren't getting a...

I think the color of the light has something to do with that. I switched my MH fixtures to large CFL (bypassing the ballast as well, i think there was a thread on here about that) and even though it was supposed to have fewer lumens, the bluish light it pushes off appears much brighter to the...

saw this and thought of you waxman. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Washworld-Automatic-Car-Wash-/321482807125?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4ad9de5755 I don't have one, don't know the guy selling it.... just trying to put 2 and 2 together... take care

Yeah, I just went to the hardware store and found tubing with the same diameter, then I bought a stainless hose clamp. I had to bend the hose clamp to get it to contour well. But its been like that for years now with no problems.

My experience and opinion are the same as Earl. I added CC acceptance to one bay (I have the DAN system)... ran it for a year, then looked at the numbers. Then I installed one in the other bay as well as my dog wash. When I rehabbed my other wash, I didn't even think about it. IMO: more and...

Ok, I'm going to take a stab at this: Full Sized Vans for overall quality I like the Ford Econoline. It'll get crappy gas mileage, but they've got pretty much all the kinks out of it, and you should be able to get over 200k miles out of it with relatively little headache. If fuel mileage is...

So mine has died. motor runs, but no air comes out. I could plumb air from my compressor room relatively easily. Or how about one of these? http://www.harborfreight.com/1-5-hp-58-psi-compressor-and-airbrush-kit-95630.html#.UxtiMfldUeg this looks a little light duty for what i need, but...

I TOTALLY AGREE.... "significant savings" and "I save between 50-75%" just isn't enough for me. I'd prefer a precise cost breakdown, maybe even some tax returns, notarized of course. On second thought, I'm going to build a new car wash soon, so if one of you guys could do the pro-formas for...

Been with them for 8 years with 4 different accounts. They have been great to deal with. One of my litmus tests for merchant accounts is whether or not I have a monthly "statement fee" or any other BS like that. With Elavon (as a Costco member) you don't.

get a small motor that runs off 120v, get a shaft with a mixer on the end, get a tub. Get a outlet that has a timer/programmable off/on, and program it for a run a couple times a day. For your time, the $250 is probably worth it. I know a guy who uses the kleen white tire cleaner for...

If I bought a vac trailer, I would buy one of these as well, or at least make my own... http://www.crustbusters.com/ http://www.autocareforum.com/showthread.php?8705-Pit-Mud-Agitator

you could always try this site: I like their tv show :) http://www.uship.com/

yeah, the zmodo i had i threw away a few months ago after the HDD failed... replaced it with the q-see... I didn't try formatting the HDD though, that might have been the only problem. I still like the picture better from the Lorex, but the user interface is 10x better on the Qsee
