Washing: Save Water. Save Chemicals.
Save Customers.

Spray nozzles may seems like a small component in a car wash operation -- self-service, conveyor or inbay automatic. But, these small components can have a huge impact on your profitability. Using the wrong nozzles or worn nozzles can easily cost tens of thousands of dollars annually:

  • A poor quality wash can result in lost customers
  • Excessive downtime and increased labor costs can result when nozzles don't perform properly
  • Operating costs can escalate from spraying more water and chemicals necessary to do the job
  • Pump wear and increased energy bills can result as pumping equipment operates at higher levels to keep up with increased flow rates or pressure losses
