According to recent statistics, the US Census Bureau estimates that there are nearly 17,000 car washes with paid employees operating in the United States. These days, car wash owners and operators are concerned with conserving water, both to increase their margins and to stay within the safe zone for local water-use ordinances.
In this article, we’ll show you how recent advances in car wash technology can help you do both.

When it comes to car wash equipment, your lighting system may be your most important investment.

In addition to saving you money, reliable in-bay LED lighting systems will:
Gone are the days of forever risking being at the mercy of long lines at the car wash.
Thanks to the rise of mobile apps, advances in car wash technology now allow customers to:
While customers love the convenience of apps, car wash owners love how this saves their wash operators time and energy, often lowering their labor costs accordingly.
Responses to the COVID-19 pandemic led to technological advancements in a number of fields, including advances in car wash technology.
Since the 1930s, scientists have been >using UV light to kill bacteria and viruses. The more recent development of low-output UV-C devices now allows car wash operators to disinfect car interiors better than ever before.
The car wash industry is increasingly incorporating UV-C sanitation lights to increase the health and personal safety of customers and car wash staff alike.
For those who are particular or prefer the hands-on method, nothing beats the efficiency and ease of use of a self-service car wash kiosk. No matter the type of washing method, from a touchless car wash system to a do-it-yourself high pressure wash, car owners appreciate the convenience of a kiosk.
A self-service car wash kiosk provides an affordable and fully interactive experience. Kiosks are equipped with touchscreens and multiple payment options, allowing customers to choose their car wash settings and pay conveniently.
Plus, thanks to the remote water monitoring capabilities from Bluebot’s smart water meters, self-service car wash kiosk owners can monitor the situation from offsite, enjoying increased levels of care and control thanks to the latest developments in automated car wash technology.
More recently, operators in the car wash industry have begun to incorporate RFID technology to enhance their customers’ car wash experience.
Combined with membership programs and loyalty plans, RFID tags:
In short, RFID tags enhance the overall customer experience while lowering your workload.
When it comes to making sure cars are dried well post-wash, gone are the days when car washes employed a bevy of workers to run out wielding handheld chamois.
High-powered, touch-free automated drying systems can now dry all vehicles quickly, consistently, and efficiently.
In addition to decreasing daily labor costs and improving final results, an automated drying system can offer controlled and consistent drying methods that increase customer confidence and satisfaction overall.
Recent advancements in car wash technology can allow car wash owners and operators to more effectively conserve water, increase their margins, and ensure they’re staying within the safe zone for local water-use ordinances.
Adopting these technologies may require a high initial investment, but over time, that investment will pay hefty dividends, allowing you to stay competitive and meet customer expectations with modernized car washing.
