    Floor heat leak

    It is looking like my automatic bay floor heat is leaking. I don’t know where to start with fixing it. How do I find where the leak is at if the system can’t even heat up? We had our cinder block walls rebuilt this past august and I’m wondering if during that the construction crew hit a line.

    Vacuum nozzles falling off

    What do you all do to keep vacuum nozzles attached to hoses? If i do nothing, customers pull too hard and take them off the vacuum hose. So for years we have used duct tape and taped the nozzles to the hoses. But after 2 weeks the duct tape gets kinda nasty. Any suggestions??

    Self serve clogged nozzles

    Has anyone else had issues with self serve nozzles clogging often? In both self serve bays at my location I’ve had 5 nozzles clog this past week alone. Sometimes it’s a white piece of something, and other times it’s black. I would think this is the high and low pressure seals or the valve...
