FAQ About SoBrite Water Treatment Solutions

Car Wash Water Reclaim:

Choosing a water reclaim system is based on what your water needs are and what type of wash you have.

Yes, reclaim tanks can be above ground, or you can add in ground tanks.

Morning startup is simple: move selector switch to off position, clean inlet basket strainer, and return selector switch to previous position.

If you run out of reclaim water and you have an ERS reclaim unit, it will automatically switch over to fresh water. If you have a Filtermatic unit, the fresh water make up solenoid will kick on before you run out of filtered water so you can continue washing.

There is no maintenance at the end of the day.

Suggested operating hours are from 5AM to 10PM. In Auto Mode, the unit is programed to turn on at 5AM and off at 10PM (program can be adjusted upon request).  In Hand Mode, the unit will run 24/7.
