    Reducing demand charges

    You need to be looking at power factor as a way to reduce your demand. Inductive loads or motors shift the power factor so the voltage and current are no longer in phase which waste power. Some of the better VFD's have a powerfactor of 1 which is perfect so they do help. Adding capacitors...

    Cryptopay threatening me to change to Worldpay

    My issue with worldpay is if you don't log into their website like every 60 days they will disable your on-line account. It takes an act of god to get it turned back on. Their verification process just to verify its you is the worst I have ever seen. They will ask you questions like what your...

    KLEEN RITE SLOW SERVICE

    I did a quick search of their website and everything I checked was a little cheaper than Kleenrite. How are they on shipping costs? Do you know how much shipping will actually cost when you place an order or do the do like Kleenrite, give you a price then charge what ever the hell they want?

    Laser wash G5

    I purchased a used laserwash 4000 and tried multiple times to get access to manuals and they would not give me access. Someone on the forum downloaded them for me and sent them to me or I would not have manuals to this day. They don't do anything without their distributor getting involved. If...

    Trash cans are gone

    If that is the case, I'm sure they require other businesses to require trash cans too. Pick your trash up and haul it to the next business. Leave it to the libtards to increase the cost of everything you do.

    Laser wash G5

    I would not purchase any used PDQ machine. Their support is absolutely terrible if you are not the original owner of the machine. They don't like dealing with people who purchase second hand machines. Good luck getting any documentation or parts.

    High leg smoked all 3 vacuum motors

    I called the power company today and they agreed that the voltage was to high on one leg and replaced a transformer on the pole. I am not sure its worth my time to try to get reimbursed for $100 worth of motors considering I will probably be on the phone for 30 minutes or longer and most likely...

    High leg smoked all 3 vacuum motors

    I got to the wash this morning and found a vacuum was not working. I checked it out fan found that the fuses for all 3 vacuum motors were blown. I couldn't get the fuses out of the fuse holders, so I bypassed all 3 fuses since none of my other vacuums have fuses at the motors. As soon as I...

    I removed my dumpster today

    I still have a locked dumpster on site. I more less use it for my trash now. My storage units sit directly behind my wash so its mostly storage unit trash that go in it now. Its wise not to have a dumpster at a self storage site or your storage customers think they can throw all their...

    I removed my dumpster today

    No long term effects here, just less headache. Last year was my first full year with no trash cans and my income actually went up. Hard to say if it would have went up more if I had trash cans, but I am happy with the outcome.

    Who is really running the country?

    Don't you also find it strange that Kamala Harris is always by his side but never speaks or does anything? I think her sole purpose it to make sure sleepy Joe doesn't say anything stupid or hurt himself. I have never saw a VP have to be in the backgound every time the "president" speaks.

    Cryptopay swiper survey please!!!!

    I wonder if this is something recent? When I was with first data they would constantly try to charge me for cryptopay not being PCI compliant and that was a little over a year ago. When I contacted Cryptopay about the situation they told me that is one of the reasons they were going away from...

    Cryptopay swiper survey please!!!!

    Actually they are not. That's why they dropped first data as a processor. It was getting harder and harder to get around them not being PCI compliant.

    Maybe this is why they are not PCI compliant.

    Pump Check on possible new to me wash

    Car wash equipment is not rocket science. Anyone with industrial maintenance background would have no issues working on carwash equipment. It would probably be the simplest piece of equipment they worked on all day.

    Etawah Valley Sales

    It can be stressful to deal with them to say the least. Wait till you expect a call back and it never comes.
