The type of wash system is the most important factor of the business. This is something you want to “get right on the first try”. We’ll help you determine the right system based on location, geography/climate, market size, hydraulic or mechanical, electricity rates, budgetary considerations and your business objectives. Here is a list of the three main types of wash systems:
