CAR WASH
When you think of car washing in the driveway, you think of a hose. Standard garden hose uses 10 gallons of water per minute, which is a lot of water without the pressure therefore minimizing cleaning potential of your vehicles surface.
​
Even a 10 minute car wash can use over 100 gallons
Washing your car in a driveway have you ever thought where all that water is going? When you rinse all the soap off the car and dirt and grime it goes..
to the grass your kids play on,
​
the sidewalks,
​
the storm drains,
​
and finally end up in our ocean.
​
This type of car washing creates a greater environmental impact as 100% of the water used it being put out into the environment.
VS
Our equipment uses a very targeted application system while carefully monitoring water usage. Additionally, the water is mixed with cleaning solutions where the chemistry is just right allowing for less water and a better clean!
​
Our automatic car wash uses as little as 50 gallons total, And of that, most isn't wasted.
At CleanWave Car Wash we use a water reclamation system of which all water is diverted to a sanitary sewer and about 90% of water the is recycled for re-use.
​
The water is treated with detergents used to break up particles used to clean the car, then put through a heavy duty filter system which chemicals and heavy compounds are cleaned out, leaving the water ready for re-use.
​
In fact our system is so effective we use as little as 15 gallons of fresh water, which is LESS than the equivalent of 2 toilets flushes.
