Semi-professional sink with manners for professional use

31 May 2017

My brother and I have been repairing and servicing cars for a long time. Initially, we worked for our uncle, but four years ago we opened our own workshop. Thanks to a good location, reasonable prices, and decent quality work, we have clients, and we became profitable fairly quickly. However, our city is not very large, and the competition in this type of business is also substantial. Therefore, to maintain fair pricing (not to fall into price competition with dumping competitors) and retain regular customers, having just an auto repair shop and tire service is no longer sufficient. So last fall, we began preparations to open a car wash. We located it right next to the existing garages, so that was not a problem. But when it came to purchasing equipment, we started having second thoughts. On one hand, the tools for work must be good, otherwise, there won't be any quality work. On the other hand, you can invest 60-90 thousand hryvnias in a professional high-pressure pump, and then the car wash concept may not take off. And then what do you do with it? It's also not advisable to buy cheap Chinese junk, as it won't be suitable for long-term work, and we won't be able to keep up with the service requirements. And what would we work with while it's being serviced? In the end, we decided to look for a compromise option - something with adequate pressure and performance, and at a reasonable price. And we found this OleoMac model.

Officially, the manufacturer classifies it as a powerful household model, but I believe that it is also suitable for semi-professional work. The pressure is powerful, in operating mode it is about 120 bar, and with a water flow rate of 10 liters per minute, it literally cuts off any dirt not only from body parts, but also from wheels, disks, bottoms. The washing speed with it is really impressive. So far, few customers come to the car wash, many save money and wash the cars themselves. But those who have tried come back again because they liked it, because it is fast and of high quality. Made soundly, high-quality plastic, high-pressure pump is made of metal materials. Easy to use, especially due to the very long pressurized water supply hose.

The price is still too big, they counted on a 30-40% lower amount, but it turned out to be more expensive. However, judging by the first three months of her work, the investment is correct.
