Don't skimp on how wide the bay is. You need to be able to open, and work off of an 8' ladder, between the machine and the bay wall.

My bay is 17x36. When my Maxx 5 is in the home position, I have to walk sideways to fit between the front brush and door jamb to get around the machine. Same when the machine is at the front of the bay against the bump stops. So...

Thanks Soapy. I'm going to do the water meter test. MGSMN, why do you think your softgloss uses that much more water than mine ? The 2 machines have to be nearly identical. Soapy, didn't I see sonewhere that you have a Ryko also ?

This. ⬆ Or you could also shut the valve off upstream of the water meter.

I never really paid much attention to this before. The water and sewer bills seemed reasonable, so I just paid them. That was with my first Ryko Softgloss for 18 years. I've had my Maxx 5 for just about a year now, and the usage seemed to be about the same. Business has picked up the last couple...

Really ? In todays society, any responsibility that the general public is expected to have just gets passed on to someone else. Is it a pedestrians responsibility to wait til there are no cars coming before they cross the street ? Not any more. It's your fault if you hit them. " It's not my...

Is it his responsibility to fold his own mirrors in ?

I agree. You obviously took the time to do that right, time well spent. A lot of times mine start out that way. Then something needs fixed, usually in a hurry. Then I start zip tying stuff to pretty much anything.

Umm, if your customers have no place to pee, where do you pee. Be honest now.

Oh, Ok, that's good. The one I installed on the paystation didn't have the button, and had a plug on the wire. The ones I need for the bays will have the button, so i'm not sure how it will look like yet. That makes sense now because if it did have a plug, I don't think there is anywhere to plug...

Yep. Finally going to put credit cards in the bays. I know, a day late, and a dollar shy. Better late then never though. Good reason to raise prices too after several years. From what I hear Yinz guys say, count up is the way to go, so have to replace the Time Master timers with LED 6's, if I...

a 1 foot x 1 foot, three sided trough made from treated lumber ?

Yesterday was the first day for the new machine Tear out and install in 4 days.

That's how my carwash is, lol.

By the way Randy, I took out the valve out after the pump, and it's working good. Thanks.

So if all of these prices are going up, should the price of a carwash go up ? My prices have remained the same through numerous water and sewer rate increases. Leave them alone, or blend in and charge more, like everyone else is ?

With the cost of ammo prices... you guys are crazy, lol.

For 15 bucks per hose, I don't mind giving my customers something nice to use.

I could read this backwards, and it still wouldn't make sense.
