+1 Get the topaz and forget about it. I tried 3-4 different models before settling on the topz 4-5 years ago. Had to replace one after a couple of years, but the rest have been set-it and forget-it.

He bought it for $28k. That's the value of the dirt in most of the US. He can have his hvac guys run most of the plumbing, and even do some of the low volt i'm sure. He can use the refab of the wash for fill to keep his guys busy when he doesn't have a full days' work for them. If he builds...

I'm still going to make the argument that the CC in the SS bays will bring found money to the business, even with the additional CC fees. I charge $2 startup cash, and $4 startup CC, but i give more time per dollar on the CC. I still have more $ spent per user on the CC, enough to cover the...

I added CC to my busiest bay, and it was used enough that I added it to my other bay as well as adding it to a new rehab we did last year. I do the count up method, and while I would say less than 20% of people use them, they account for over 30% of my SS revenue. Young people use them, busy...

I bought one like MEP linked to on Craigslist for $200 a few months ago. Just created an RSS feed and kept an eye on the local craigslist cities for a few weeks. I like it. It counts, batches, etc. and from what I can tell all I will need to replace in the future is a couple of drive belts.

not exactly... my system is 2 generations older than this one... and yes i got them with those. We have very well-placed cameras. I'd say we can capture tags on 75% of cars We also bought the lorex 16 version at the same time a little over a year ago. I don't like their software interface...

Its your pressure switch

For this reason, I don't have employee handbooks either. If you have a handbook, both sides must abide by the letter of the handbook. I choose to run by the "spirit" of the rules I set forth. That way I can break the rules when the situation arises where it shouldn't apply, and I can hold...

Sure, celinoids is spelled solenoids .... (sorry to be an ass, but you did say "any help...") :) Other than that did you check the foot valves? Or the peristaltic pumps? Or the tubing? (I would check the foot valves first)

Hire the personality. Work them hard. Cut them slack sometimes even when they don't deserve it. Treat them better than they deserve, and don't expect them to treat you the same way. Let the burnt out ones leave, and hire them back when they realize they had a pretty good thing going on...

Yes, the US EPA has stricter standards than the European equivalent, especially in regards to diesels. VW had to discontinue their TDI program in the US temporarily back in '05 to adjust to new US standards. Right now, if we loosened our standards on emissions we would see a drastic increase...

did it on all 3 of mine... I think they should be the default display, or at least a factory upgrade that is offered before you order. I bought 2 new goldlines last year, and switched out the displays before they were installed. I like it that much.

Most larger cities have vending repair companies that go around and refurbish/repair machines. I just switch parts around to find out what is defective, then bring it in to a local shop and buy a used one off of them.

go to craigslist... type in "snack vending" and watch for a good deal. I've been able to find several 30+ selection vendors for under $500 in the past few years. Just be patient and jump on the good deal when it appears. Once you get it, slap on a coat of paint, upgrade bill acceptors if need...

I have one flojet per color on my automatic (cobra) and it works fine. Rebuild your foam generators and really just pack the material in there. The back pressure from the restriction should take care of the pulsing. (This should save you some money over a pump, and I know you like that)

Let us all imagine: Imagine that you just got taken by an unethical distributor/old owner and you now own a $1.3M car wash that isn’t worth $800k. What are you going to do? Most people try like the dickens for a couple of years to grow sales to make it worth that $1.3M. After a couple of...

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004SOLL48/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00 I bought 2 of these and mounted them on the paystations (new construction) at an angle to grab the plate as the car approaches as well as the face during a transaction. It gets the plate 100% of the time. Our cameras are...

another reason I love my qsee: just found out today that I can dial in remotely, look up a video of a lady hitting my IBA from 2 weeks ago, then back up the video clip locally to my laptop.... no I don't sell this stuff, and yes I doubt that the $15,000 commercial versions are 30x times better...

how much are you wanting to spend? If cost is a big issues just go hydrominder with flo jets.... I think these look cool though, and you could probably use their injectors and fabricate your own system with a little work. http://www.hydraflexinc.com/aqua-lab-md5/ small footprint too I just...
