    Car Wash Timing Issue

    Is it possible to have a photo-eye malfunction while the computer is counting pulses and throwing the timing off? Maybe soap accumulating on the eyes by the end of the faoming cycle then dripping off clean for the start of the next vehicle. Eyes clean for the first half then losing signal...

    Carwash Closings

    Apparently a car wash is permitted to stay open but as of today I'm closed I will go to the site and see what the traffic looks like. I do have employees so it's possible I may lose money by opening if I have no customers on the road.

    Carwash Closings

    Maybe I need to reevaluate my position. Maybe I need to reevaluate my position especially after reading the letter from the SWCA. I am an exterior only with pay vacs so nobody during the wash process exits their vehicle unless they pull to the side of the building to vacuum.

    Carwash Closings

    I think I'm going to turn my water main off just in case. I don't want a hydrominder to malfunction and not only waste water and get everything wet, including motors, motor starters etc. but I don't want to accidentally suck my chemicals dry.
