    Where are yous all from?

    Nebraska, about 22 hours west of Waxman and 22 hours east of Kimberly. If your lines are long send them my way.

    Bird is relentless building nest in Laurel vendor

    A few years back a Robin built a nest on top of a center post of my Automatic wash. And yes, the babies survived while growing up with almost 40 cars per day being washed within a couple feet from them. I am quite sure a rainstorm never bothered them as adults!

    Clarification on Car Stacking Requirements for Car Wash

    Stacking requirements are "in addition to the vehicle being served" in every area I have encountered. I would confirm with local zoning.

    The last time I had a good laugh while at my self serve I was ____________________________________________________

    Watched a customer using the foam brush on the inside of his doors and then on the dash of his truck. I didn't stay and watch whether he did the seats but did see that he ran high pressure rinse for several minutes. Guessing he finished up properly with spot free.

    Touchless Front & Rear Eyebrow removal

    We have a tough time for a short period every spring and fall. The answer for us (for the most part) is to either add a 2nd pass of low or increase the dwell before high. Haven't had any luck switching to high/low. Blendco products.

    55 MPH 4 lane road

    The extra building is a problem. If it was removed the location might have a chance. As of now the wash is secondary to a garage.

    Worthy 1st Time Investment?

    Agree with Randy. It's a lot that comes with a demolition job. Run.

    Nayak Vs Monex Vs CryptoPay

    We use pulse on our self service and vacs and MDB on the autocashier. We select the wash/price on the autocashier screen and then direct customer to pay with cash or card. On vacs we have customer swipe, count up, and the customer pushes an added stop button when finished. Charge is displayed on...

    Bill Changer Ripped from the wall

    I am also fortunate in my area that small crime is taken seriously. My comment on police having little interest in small crime is not personal at all. It is about working where they are hamstrung in what they can pursue.

    Bill Changer Ripped from the wall

    The sad part is the little police interest in that type of crime. Ignoring or not punishing small crimes is one of the biggest problems we face in this country. It simply promotes/produces bigger crimes.

    Floor Switch (Pressure Pad) for Water Wizard 2.0

    Both of those posted above are good choices. I have used them and they lasted for many years.

    Auto identification

    Windtrax in Kansas City also sold an Automatic like that . I had one for 20 years. It actually worked well and was indestructible.

    Tankless on IBA

    I have used Rheem and Takagi for several years for both Self service and Automatic low pressure functions. Also use them for Self service high pressure soap. Works well. It's all I use for all the hot water/floor heat at the washes.

    Adding Nayax to Vacs, count which way?

    We did not order a stop button from them. Their button seemed a bit small to us.

    Nayax

    I have to back up a bit on that. Just swiped a card at 1 wash and it shows Nayax wash, Hunt valley Md. It is possible to get the type of vend correct from Nayax, but I think you have to process thru Heartland to get the full business name on customer side, with an additional cost. I will check...
