Just out of curiosity are you running the advanced analytics that you need to pay extra for? I find all the reports complete and can report on anything for a given date or range. I may be missing something in your post.

It's been 6 years years for me now. I only work one day a week now unless we have a significant breakdown. It has allowed me to quit my aviation corporate job of 32 years. I'll use it as income and an investment until the time is right or I can't do it anymore. Best choice I've ever made in my...

Thanks for the info Mep. This pump has been in service for 29 years. Think I got my money's worth.

Went to the wash today and one pump was very noisy. Opened the fill cap and water got inside. The pump is running fine other than that. The new one won't be here until next week. Can I keep it in service??? Just don't know how they fail and if it will cause other issues. Thanks

I really don't know who makes the old ones but indeed they are mechanical and old. They don't die easy. I already changed one out with an IDX model and then started hearing about the problems. I'm happy with the Microcoin units in my bays.

Thank you Mep!

I'm looking to upgrade all my older Doyle vacuum coin acceptors. I found one on Kleen rite and looking for confirmation on the fitment. https://www.kleen-ritecorp.com/p-61453-microcoin-ql-style-electronic-coin-acceptor.aspx Does anyone know if these will work? Thanks, David

You might try the Southwest Car Wash Association. https://swcarwash.org/. We go through the Western version. We just got our quote back it has doubled from last year due to all the vandalism and claims at washes. That's what I was told anyways. Either way sucks and prices may need to go up to...

I thought this would be a good idea myself until I have had one bay out the past two weeks only taking cards. The number of cars that pulled back out and into another bay was surprising. I feel it is all about your demographics and is site-specific. For ours, it will be a long time before I make...

I'm in the same boat, Randy. I received a notice about two months ago and still waiting on WCA to send me a new quote. Not one claim in years. I'm almost afraid to open the email once I receive it for the new policy. It may be time for another price bump.

So I wanted to follow up on what I found with my coin vault. It appears 25 years of dust and grime was the problem. I bought a 3-inch pellet stove pipe brush and cut the diameter to fit my coin pipe. After that used a snake with a rag dipped in Pledge to finish it off. Coins drop like a rock...

Ok so today I spent more time trying to understand the chute system Randy, It appears the tube size is 1 3/4. This is the best picture I could take with my cheap camera. It appears the coins are just getting hung up on rough surfaces. No breaks are found. The picture shown is from the top down...

Randy, I'll be by the wash tomorrow and check the inside diameter. Part of the problem is the camera I bought is pretty cheap and can't see it really good.

Over the past two weeks, something has changed with one of my coin chutes in one bay. The quarters are not dropping from the meter box to the vault. Just a few get caught up and cause a blockage over time. I can see the area with a snake camera, but getting to it will prove difficult. I saw this...

Thanks, just might do that. I did find some odd tap charges on one day in June. I looked in my Analytic section, purchases by device. Along with my bays and vacs there is an entry that says TapRdr for $32 bucks. It only appears on two days out of the month of June. I'll call them on Monday and...

They told me they needed a date and time that it happened. Also, it appears to be in line with a declined card. But it works when you swipe? It doesn't happen often; getting the information they need will be difficult. Just have to keep an eye on it for now. Thanks

So I have one bay that often has a Tap issue. Tired searching but nothing comes up. The customer will hold the card up to pay and will turn on for 2 seconds and then turn off and say thank you. They then will do a mag swipe and it works normal. Any thoughts? This only seems to happen in one bay.

Freelin-wade hose is all I used to run throughout life flight medical helicopters for air, vacuum and oxygen systems for well over 30 years. It's just the best and seems to never wear out. Just my experience....

Don't forget Tap to Pay either. Seems like everyone loves that option at my place and it's half my sales each month with cards. People love tech....

I always respond good or bad for future customers. A funny thing happened last week. I received a call from OSHA and they needed to conduct a surprise onsite audit that day to complete the inspections. The first words out of their mouths were we checked your Google reviews and we see you are a...
