Tunnels are outfitted with water reclaim systems. Water reclaim has two major benefits to the business. First, our water reclamation rate is approximately 80% which equates to savings of about 70% on both water usage and sewer charges.
-
Rainwater from the building is captured and funneled into the water reclaim system. With a normal amount of rainfall, consumption of new domestic water is reduced to only 5%-10%
-
Solar panels are installed on all sites to produce nearly 15% of the energy usage for the entire site
-
Recaptured water not used in our facility to service cars is diverted and used in our irrigation system
-
LED fixtures are used in most of the high energy-consuming areas (Lot lights, exterior lighting, signage, etc.).
-
Skylights and glass/glazing are used extensively to promote natural light usage versus solely relying on electrical
-
lighting in the tunnels. This cuts down on the electrical needs of the facility while enhancing the customer’s experience.
-
The majority of building components are made from post-consumer recycled material. All steel on-site is made from a minimum of 80% recycled material. This includes the structural steel, re-bar, studs, shade structures, and conveyor equipment within the tunnels.
-
All site vacuums are timed to ensure that they are not accidentally left running
-
All facility lot lights are required to be on timers
-
Biodegradable and Photodegradable soaps are used through-out the car wash and detailing process at all locations
