The Challenge

Maintaining Water Quality in Car Wash Operations

Cooling tower water contamination causes:

Every car wash operation faces a constant battle against water contamination. As vehicles move through the wash cycle, they introduce a mix of road salt, sand, organic debris, oil residues, and other contaminants. Without proper water filtration, these particulates lead to clogged nozzles, excessive equipment wear, and increased maintenance costs.

Car washes typically rely on multi-stage water filtration, but traditional methods require frequent maintenance and filter replacements, driving up costs and downtime. Tekleen’s automatic self-cleaning water filters provide a smarter, more efficient solution—delivering continuous water filtration for your car wash without any interruptions.

The Tekleen filter uses 110 current for the control box and no motorized parts, so we cut down our electrical usage from before.
