    Does anybody have any pictures of any 5 year old wall panels in a self serve bay? I’ve got some 20 year old FRP and it looks like ass. I don’t have a lot of vandalism , but people do stupid stuff. I’ve been told that the newer stuff is better than it was as far as holes. Any picture of self...

    D&S 5000 troubleshooting

    Just had the identical issue. My soap valve was bad and forced presoak into my rinse tank causing foam. The valve body had warn thin and would not seal. Replaces the whole valve, 573p I believe. Problem fixed. It took me a while to figure that out.

    What kind of vacuums?

    I’ve used Fragramatics for 20 years. I have had good service from them and they have been reliable. I have replaced wear items but that’s about it. I have the shampoo vacs and the fragrance vacs. The fragrance is oil base and doesn’t freeze. The shampoo comes in summer and winter formula...

    I have a 3 column D&S through the wall vendor that I removed from a wash that closed. It worked when removed. It’s a big vendor with a stainless face plate. I have no idea if the electronics are a match. If you are interested shoot me a message.

    Water-Sewer Increase - Bay Prices

    One of my locations has a water rate of $26 per thousand gallons water and sewer combined. I am at a $2 start for 3 minutes 12 seconds. It works for me. Also, I would get rid of the $8 option on your auto to boost your wash average.
