I also was wondering does bay heights and hose lengths matter? Reason i ask this i have 3 carwashs 2 with 10ft bays and 1 with 14 ft and the 2 shorter bays have way more kick / pressure
Hose length won't matter unless you're using 1/4" bay hoses. Or maybe you have the shorter bays running higher pressure or with bigger tips.

Using meps chart he posted i went from a 3207 to a 2506 and i couldn't be happier. The 32 degree was way to big. I am using imeg and order on the way with 2506 veejets. Thanks Mep good info and much appreciated.

I think it a personal preference. We like the 1505 and have used other nozzles over the years but come back to the 1505, it works for us. We've been using the 1505 nozzle for over 30 years.

I like the idea of that Randy only thing i did not like was cleaning mud up with that tip.

I wouldn't use something like a 1505 except in a truck bay with extra-high pressure. I've used regular SS bays with such a tip and there's just not enough fan for me. Granted it does take the customer longer to wash, but I feel like that will piss them off. Same with the "Kleen-Rite Ultimate 3207 tip," no washing impact a foot away and too much fan, about all it's good for IMO is misting the tire cleaner so it gets in your eyes.
