    No way I would give my correct phone number. I have a fake phone number that I have used for years in cases like this.

    Razor hi pressure hose protector

    I have been making my own hi pressure hose that goes through the long E-Chain on the wall. It seems the failure of this hose is always the hose rubbing through from one of the E-chain cross members. I have been using the nylon spiral wrap around the hose which is what the machine came with...

    Trash Problem

    I did the same thing at both of my carwashes about 4 years ago. I rarely see any trash laying around any more and people can actually use my vacuums and self serve bays because people are not blocking my bays because they are not dumping trash for 30 minutes and not buying anything. I think I...

    Big PSI difference at pump when trigger pulled.

    One thing to remember is pumps create flow, not pressure. Resistance causes pressure, so your pump is not creating enough flow when you pull the trigger. The heads aren't starting to wash out are they?

    Soda Sales

    It seems my soda sales have dropped off dramatically over the past 5 years. I probably sell about of third of what I used to sell. I don't know if the public is just becoming more health conscious or what. What is everyone else seeing and what is selling good that I don't have? Below is my...

    Is Etowah valley equipment still in business?

    I know their service has always been a nightmare but I sent an email to get a quote a few weeks ago and still no reply. Just wondered if they are still in business or if their poor service has finally got the best of them? I know a few years ago I purchased some equipment from them and had to...

    I am in the process of adding some more cryptopay credit card readers to my wash and was trying to figure out if most credit cards these days have both the magnetic strip and tap ability?

    WW2.0 prox sensor PNP vs NPN

    I am not familiar with your machine but you cannot substitute a PNP for an NPN sensor. One sensor provides a negative output and one provides a positive output. The PLC input card type will determine which sensor you need.

    CryptoPay Tap Plus?

    I am a little leery about putting these in. I have tap and swipe on my automatic and it seems many customers dont have tap credit cards or at least they are not aware they have tap. I am afraid I would loose business because they cant pay.
