Found a product manufactured in Canada Geo Loop and I have had great success with the product. Really easy to use and it has saved me the cost of reinstalling the piping.

I am finally successful with my in floor heating project. Background: My site is a 2 bay car wash in a convenience store and gas station plaza. We are located an hour from Ottawa. When I purchased the property 3 years ago the car wash was non functional. The first year operating the site was a...

Will hydrominder model 515 be a working solution? With a black tip it is 2:1 ratio. https://www.kleen-ritecorp.com/p-3983-515-hydrominder-low-volume-unit-w-siphon-breaker-mounting-bracket-1-5-gpm.aspx#description

It was mentioned that if the hydrominder tip is removed, we will get 20% methanol by volume. Is there a way to increase the methanol concentration to 35-40 percent by volume? I am referring to the attached chart and with a 35% concentration it should technically provide freeze protection till...

Installing all four on the same wall. Hopefully I am able to drill the broken lag bolts. For some weird reason, each mat holder has one broken lag bolt.

My bays have 2 floor mat holders each. I want to install 2 more holders, giving the customers the option to wash their 4 floor mats. I am confused whether to install all the 4 mat holders in a straight line on the same wall or install 2 on each wall. My rationale for installing 2 on each side is...

I am no expert, however, if you have a rotary switch please make sure the the two connector plates (one with the wires attached and the other on the switch) are connected. I had the issue where the the timer was counting, but the bay functions did not turn on. It was the connector that was...

I have block walls and right now the floor mats are attached with hex bolts. However, when these bolts were removed they leave quite a hole as is apparent from the attached picture. My question is that can I use a tapcon screw to hold the new mat holders? Should I use the tapcon screw by itself...

The connectors are 3/8 tube and 1/4 Male. The tube does match the connectors, however, with time lets say 4-6 months the connectors would start leaking. I had to recently take out the tube, rough it up with the dishwasher sponge and reinstall. This has stopped the leak for now, but not sure for...

When I got my wash repaired a couple of years ago, the push-in connectors (circled in red in the attached photo) were used extensively. The issue with these connectors is that over a few month usage they usually start leaking especially the ones that carry soap and water. Any good alternatives...

I am sometimes confused if some of the customers are born stupid or they undergo some specialized training?

I have found out the hard way that “blowing the steam” does not make my blood pressure go down. I get more riled up - a real flaw in my personality. Getting angry at them is akin to holding a burning coal in your hand. Everyone is different and there are a lot of techniques from meditation to...

Thank you all for the suggestions. Finally was able to narrow it down to a wire that had broken off from the rotary switch. However, can’t figure out how the wire broke off the rotary switch in the first place.

When I selected “wax” today ( i just wanted to make sure that the Tee with the soap and wax solenoids is not blocked) there was a strong pulsation and a lack of pressure. However, after a few seconds the issue resolved itself. I don’t feel a loss of pressure between rinse and soap. On a another...

The soap is working fine in the other bay. I believe it will not be the filter. And, I also did a continuity check and the solenoid looks to to be fine. I am just wondering if the water in the Cat pump is somehow responsible for this.

Good afternoon. There is no high pressure soap in of the bays. I thought it could be the solenoid and I opened the solenoid and cleaned it. However, there is still no soap. Another interesting thing I noticed is that the oil level in the Cat pump has increased and there are bubbles in the...

The hoses run from the ER directly into the bays. They don't run in the attic.

I use a blowout system with windshield washer fluid. That way I don't weep water in a closed bay and save some money in my water bills. I haven't had anyone use a closed bay until yesterday. Removing hoses will be a bit challenging and I was wondering if the heat cable trick will work?

Yesterday afternoon we had a moron that used the HP hose in a closed off bay. Washed his car in one bay and mats in the second one. As the weepmizer for the closed bay was shut down, the HP hose is frozen solid. I was planning to buy a Heat Cable (Easy heat brand. Can't find Raychem) and wrap it...
