Capturing three independent revenue streams – a car wash, pet wash and vended laundry – Crystal Clear Wash is not only distinctive and profitable, it makes easy, even easier… The laundry is equipped with 28 Continental high-speed ExpressWash Washers, which are freestanding, slide easily into place and generate extract speeds of up to 354 G-force.
“Hard-mount washers must be bolted to concrete foundations and most only hit extract speeds between 70 and 120 G-force,” says Tom Millman, who installed the equipment. “Because ExpressWash Washers produce considerably higher extract speeds, they remove more water from every load and can cut dry-time by up to 50 percent.” At Crystal Clear Wash, this means customers can wash, dry and fold laundry in under an hour. And, by shortening dry-time, the business uses less electricity and natural gas.
“Customers say our dryers work really well, but I tell them it's because of the high-speed extract on the washers; loads don't take as long to dry,” says co-owner Omar Bou-Matar. “They like getting in and out of the laundry more quickly.”
