Looking to find out what other car wash owners have the dwell time and HP rinse speeds set at on thier M5 or Laser 4000 wash? Do you change them in the winter vs summer? Thanks:)

I don't run a laser, but my dwell times are 10 seconds each pass (plus the time it takes to apply).

I have a 4000 and I set it at a 15 sec. dwell plus a bug pass on the front for the summer months. In the winter my dwell is five seconds with no bug pass on the front. My winter washing is mainly salt and the 5 second dwell is plenty with my chemicals and set up. The summer bugs, film and baked on dirt do require the additional dwell for my system.
