Mobile car wash. Prefabricated car washes - Autonomous

The question is asked by Petr Svintsov:

Good day. I was interested in a turnkey modular car wash. I have questions about installing it. What papers and permits are needed to install it and get started. The sink does not need to cut into the sewer or water supply, the sink is autonomous, the water is purified through a filter, the heating is electric or a diesel fuel stove is your choice.

Hello, Peter!

I called several suppliers and manufacturers of modular car washes + talked to my friend who runs a car wash and prepared an answer for you! There are several options for work, choose any, but legal ones are better.

Opening a modular car wash is legal

  1. Find a place where there are no residential buildings within a radius of 50 meters.
  2. Buy a turnkey modular car wash from the manufacturer. It needs to include all documents and permits (fire department + environmentalists + sanitary inspection and possibly something else).
  3. Notify the fire inspectorate, environmentalists, and Rospotrebnadzor about the opening.
  4. Obtain permission to dispose of used water, dry residue from car wash operations and solid household waste. This is from Ecologists (Ministry of Natural Resources).
  5. Coordinate with the traffic police so that you do not interfere with the movement of cars and pedestrians, do not block anything, etc.
  6. Contract for connection to electricity.

Manufacturers of modular car washes generally said that apart from their set of documents that they provide, nothing else is needed. But I think that the above will not hurt (this is more correct). Some owners of modular (mobile) car washes also say this. Moreover, the owners say that all inspectors can be sent to hell, because the certificates supplied by the manufacturer are valid throughout the Russian Federation.

Open a modular car wash at random

As some owners of car washes and other types of businesses say: “You can put everything in and start working, and when all sorts of checks come running, then you can solve the problems.” In fact, they are also right, because in our country you can comply with the law 100%, but they can still come close to you and find something. Therefore, this opening option also has a place to be, especially since you already have documents from the manufacturer and, according to them (as I wrote above), nothing else is needed.

Open a modular car wash “in gray”

There is an option to open a car wash in a gray area, but few people recommend it. You can make a car wash look like a modular one, but in reality it is a regular car wash with water drainage and consumption. I don’t understand the point of this, because you need to cut into the water supply and sewerage system. In general, I don’t recommend doing this, but I should have written it as an option.

Conclusion

I collected some reviews from modular car wash owners and learned some of the intricacies.

  1. If they want to fine you, they will fine you, even if you did everything according to the law.
  2. In winter, the water in the tanks needs to be changed very often due to severe pollution and due to the fact that the roads are sprinkled with salt. Water spoils quickly.
  3. Filters often become clogged and are expensive to replace.
  4. The stated number of water filtration cycles from the manufacturer is too high. Water becomes unusable 2 times faster than stated.
  5. It is better to use electric heating than diesel fuel, because there may be problems with firefighters.
  6. All of the above can be solved if you approach it head-on and the income from the car wash easily covers these costs, if you choose the right place and feed the client.

In general, there was a question about documents, and I also said too much. If you have any other questions on the topic, ask in the comments.

The rapidly growing market for car wash services, but not catching up with demand, could not bypass such a popular area as mobile car washes, which have been successfully operating in our region for several years. We are manufacturers of such complexes and supply them throughout the Southern Federal District. Such a car wash is a complete factory-ready unit that can be placed on any suitable plot of land.

The dimensions of the main box are 4.3 meters wide and 10.2 meters long for the single-post version, and 2 times wider for the double-post version. Everything you need to get started is already included in the kit. successful business, the buyer only needs to add water and invite a car wash. All you need is a small plot of land, leased or owned. At the customer’s request, we can brand the mobile car wash in corporate colors and use complementary colors to add accents to the overall impression.

For many people starting their own business, a mobile car wash is a real “business on a silver platter”, which is distinguished by the absence of pitfalls, a quick start-up stage and sufficient return on investment compared to other investment options. The autonomy of the sink significantly expands the geography of its application and makes it immune to the complexities of the market situation.

Advantages of mobile car washes

Below we look at the main factors that make autonomous car washes attractive.
.

Operating principle of a mobile car wash

Before starting work, it is necessary to fill the underground tank with tap water in the amount of 4-5 cubic meters. We do this either from the water supply network, or call a water truck of the required volume. Next, we find a washer, conduct a short one-hour training, and that’s it - you’re ready to receive your first clients. The work of a mobile car wash begins with the car driving inside; by the way, whether the car wash is free or not is indicated by a green or red traffic light that we place at the entrance gate. In the engine room there is an AED, reliably protected from moisture, and in the washing compartment the washer has a console rotating under the ceiling, through which the hose is connected to the washing gun tucked into the holder.

The washer, experiencing maximum comfort, begins to wash the car, knocking dirt off the car, which falls on the floor and, due to the slope of the floor, flows into a drain caisson with a capacity of 1 cubic meter. The primary stage of purification begins precisely there, due to the deposition of very large suspended particles. This caisson is made in the shape of a trough, and has a slope towards the engine room, where it is met by a submersible float pump, which draws water from a depth of about 3-4 centimeters, so as not to pick up suspended matter and oil products.

A submersible pump pumps water into the coagulation chamber, in which additional dirt separation occurs using a coagulant and flocculant, which, acting together, cause small particles of dirt to stick together and successfully settle to the bottom of the coagulation chamber. Next, the relatively clean water passes through a three-stage filter system, which includes:

  • Carbon filter
  • Cartridge filter
  • Bag Nylon Filter

The last stage of water purification is the flotation chamber, in which the water is saturated with oxygen, where the effect of an aquarium compressor is created through air injection from below. The air bubbles formed in this case, passing from the bottom of the flotation tank to its top, “grab” the smallest suspended particles that could not be filtered out at the previous stages of purification. As a result, dirty soap scum forms in the upper part of the flotation chamber, which automatically falls through a special chute into a plastic barrel, where it is dealt with by a defoamer. Thus, we have dealt with 3 types of pollution

  • We settle stones, sand and large suspended particles in the drain caisson and clean them once a month
  • Smaller particles remain in the filters, the elements of which we also recommend replacing once a month
  • The smallest particles of contamination are formed daily in the plastic drum after flotation. Their quantity is small, and it is quite acceptable to dispose of them monthly

One of the important issues when creating a car wash is finding premises. Renting a space for a car wash has both its pros and cons. The main advantage is the low initial costs compared to buying a car wash. But you should remember that the lease agreement will not be able to fully protect you in the event that the owner decides to change the rental price or completely changes his mind about renting out the premises.

Definitely own mobile car wash made from sandwich panels much better. Car wash based on metal structures can be installed on a plot of land purchased or rented in a convenient location and equip it according to your requirements.

In addition, an important advantage of a car wash made of metal structures is its mobility. Just as quickly as assembling a turnkey car wash, it can be disassembled and transported to a new location, which will be especially useful if the car wash is located on a rented site. In this case, moving costs will be significantly reduced, and your ready business car wash will earn money in a new place in the very near future.

Buying an autonomous car wash - what are the benefits?

Saving money and time

When starting a business, the financial issue is one of the decisive ones. Our price for car washes made from sandwich panels own production low, which means it allows you to start a business with a small startup.

Construction of car washes based on frame metal structures not only costs much cheaper, but can also be completed much faster than the construction of a permanent building. In addition, the time and costs for approving a car wash project are reduced, because a metal structure has significantly less weight than a brick or reinforced concrete building.

A car wash made from sandwich panels does not require construction strong foundation, which means time and material costs for zero-cycle work are reduced. In most cases, such an autonomous car wash can get by with a shallow strip or column foundation.

Easy delivery and assembly

The complexity of constructing walls for permanent buildings and metal frame structures is also not comparable. Only a few cars are needed, depending on the scale of the project, to bring the disassembled car wash structure. No other building materials not required.

Assembly speed is very high: a qualified team A few days are enough to turnkey the car wash.. Installation can be carried out in any weather, in any climatic conditions.

In addition, the premises car washes based on metal structures is sufficient easy to reschedule if necessary. For permanent buildings, redevelopment is comparable in complexity to construction and requires a separate project and approval.

Features of the car wash design

The metal frame, which is the main supporting structure of the car wash, is made of high-strength steel and treated with an anti-corrosion coating.

The installation of all types of car wash communications is greatly simplified, since all holes, cable channels and fasteners are already provided in advance. There is no need to tap or drill technological holes. In general, a car wash can be commissioned much faster than a permanent building.

Maybe additional insulation building, installation autonomous heating systems. Water supply can be either central, if the location of the car wash is in Moscow, or local, if it is located away from the city infrastructure.

The car wash can be equipped with systems forced ventilation, and the premises for staff and clients are equipped air conditioners.

It is possible to install an autonomous generator as the main or backup source of electricity. The power supply system for car washes must be equipped with automatic switches in the distribution panel.

When ready, the car wash is a functional modern building, equipped with everything necessary for work. Your Car Wash business is ready to bring you profit!

> Introduction

The car wash business in Russia originated in the early 1990s.

Since 1995, professional car washes began to be built in large cities, at which time the car wash business began to actively develop as a business. But the market for car wash services is still not yet developed and even today is in its infancy. According to analysts, in the next ten to fifteen years the car wash business will be in a growth stage and only then will it enter a stage of saturation and fierce competition.

The development of the car wash business in Russia is facilitated by a number of key factors, such as:

  • high growth in demand for car wash services, dictated by:
    - an annual increase in the number of cars (thanks to the boom in car loans to the population), this is especially visible in large cities;
    - the policy of the authorities, tightening measures to maintain cleanliness and order on the roads;
    - changing the culture of car enthusiasts: more and more drivers keep their cars constantly clean;
  • lack of monopoly;
  • high degree of profitability of the car wash business.
It should be noted that along with the factors for the development of the car wash business, there are also factors hindering this development, including:
  • lack of free land in cities (one of the main factors for the success of any car wash is its location);
  • high bureaucratic barriers;
  • strict requirements for a car wash.

But there are entrepreneurs who are not stopped by these obstacles, who manage to solve all these issues and are actively building car washes. And it doesn’t matter how much money is invested: if everything is done correctly, any car wash will pay for itself in a maximum of 2.5 years.


The construction and opening of a stationary car wash is a fairly high-cost project, especially considering the difficulties associated with lengthy approvals and collection of design, construction and other permitting documentation from various government authorities. Resolving these issues takes a lot of time (from 8 to 16 months), effort, nerves and financial costs (15-30 million rubles and more).

We offer a more economical and efficient entry into the car wash business, an alternative without unnecessary bureaucratic delays and difficulties, a turnkey car wash - the Kronverk-1.A mobile car wash complex.

The advantages of the Kronverk-1.A mobile car wash complex over a stationary car wash are obvious, because it:

  • much cheaper than stationary sinks, quickly erected, has excellent specifications and quick payback;
  • it does not require collecting and coordinating construction documentation. Initially, it has almost all the permits necessary for work;
  • easy and assembled like a construction set. It can be dismantled, transported and reassembled at a new location (this opportunity allows the owner to find a more attractive location for doing business or to eliminate the situation of loss of business, as would be possible in the case of a stationary car wash on a leased area upon expiration, non-renewal or termination of the lease agreement (the lessor will ultimately receive an empty plot of land the same as it was before the lease agreement was concluded);
  • easy to use and environmentally friendly.

Mobile car wash complex "Kronverk-1.A" is an ideal solution for starting a car wash business


A prefabricated car wash complex for car washing, model “KRONVERK-1.A”, where A is the number of posts, (hereinafter referred to as a car wash), is intended for manual washing (using a hose) of passenger cars and trucks. The KRONVERK-1.A car wash is intended for installation and operation in cities and towns together with gas stations, service stations, parking lots or as an independent washing station for all-season operation in temperate and moderately cold climates.

    • What is the difference between permanent car wash buildings and modular car washes?

    The ModulDom company offers the construction of prefabricated frame car washes based on a light metal frame, which ensures the strength and reliability of the structure, and we also carry out the construction of modular buildings for car washes (when the building is assembled in separate parts at our plant and delivered to the construction site in the form of ready-made blocks -modules).

    We build stationary car washes on reinforced concrete foundations and they represent a capital building - a capital construction object. And sometimes a situation arises when our customers cannot afford to build a permanent building for a car wash. In this case, we offer a simple and affordable solution - the production of modular (mobile) sinks. Installation of the modules does not require buried foundations - a flat concrete platform or platform made of asphalt or compacted crushed stone is sufficient. The walls, floor and ceiling of our modules are well insulated, which ensures full operation of the modular car wash at any time of the year. Moreover, they are not capital construction projects, which significantly reduces the bureaucratic and corruption burden on our customers.

    The main advantages of our modular sinks are their mobility (it is very easy to move the finished building to any distance if necessary) as well as the low cost of manufacturing and installation.

    So, for example, a ready-made modular car wash building for 1 washing station, including lifting gates, plastic windows, a technical room for equipment and a drain tray with dirt traps, costs only 690,000 rubles. The buyer only needs to prepare a solid, level area for installation and order delivery.

    If necessary, our specialists will independently prepare the site. delivery and installation of a car wash. A ready-made box for a car wash is a good solution for organizing such a business. Prefabricated buildings have proven their efficiency and excellent performance in practice. That is why there is practically no area left that has not yet been penetrated by frame or modular construction.
    Our modular car washes are often ordered for their needs by car dealerships (for pre-sale preparation of their numerous cars), car park owners, and just beginning entrepreneurs (since no large investments are required to start a car wash business with such modular car washes).

    Of course, our modular construction technology is used not only in the construction of car washes, car services, repair shops and service stations. These can be country houses made from ready-made modules, or offices, shops, cafes, garages, etc. A sink box can easily be used as a service box, a service station, or a tire service box.

    When constructing such objects, we manage not only to achieve the best combination of price and quality, but also to make the object original and bright. All these requirements are best met by frame-modular construction.

    Our specialists will design the metal frame of your future car service, car wash or repair shop, make the necessary calculations, and experienced builders will install the building or box on site in the shortest possible time.

    In the catalog of our work you can familiarize yourself with the projects of car services, repair shops and car washes already completed by our company. We have manufactured and installed many volumetric modular buildings. They can be used in the future as washrooms and car service bays, for organizing auto repair shops, for organizing warehouses and auto parts stores.
