What is an Air Vacuum Machine?

Air vac machines are typically used at car washes, convenience stores, and gas stations to generate additional revenue. Additionally, municipalities, fleet companies, car rental agencies, apartment complexes may use free vacuum and air machines for their employees, customers, or residents. They are relatively simple units powered by electricity that runs a compressor inside, a GAST for instance, that produces air or vacuum sucking power. The compressor is housed inside a durable cabinet or canister with a payment device on the front. Separate hoses run out of the housing for each service - a smaller one with an inflator affixed on the end, and a vac hose with a tool/nozzle at the end. A digital or analog pressure gauge shows the level of the tire being inflated, and a timer clocks how long the vacuum service is used. Some units have a retractable air hose. Vault ready air and vac machines are available. Plus, there are coin operated versions, models with credit card acceptors, and even ones with bill acceptors so you can pick a machine to match the payment preferences of your customer base.

Factors to Consider When Choosing Air and Vacuum Machines

Installation Location and Space Requirements - Make sure you have an area with plenty of room for cars to sit for extended periods of time without blocking traffic on your lot. This is a crucial consideration with busy, high-volume businesses like car washes and gas stations.
Power Source and Energy Efficiency - Check the voltage and other electrical specs of the machine you're considering purchasing. If you don't have an appropriate line run to your preferred spot to place the machine, be prepared to install one or have a qualified electrician do so.
Payment Options - We have a variety of payment options available on the air vacuum machines we sell. If you don't already have vending or automated equipment at your facility, make sure you understand how to deal with the payment from customers. For example, if you take bills or coins, you're going to have a lot of small cash to deal with on a regular basis. That means trips to the bank and/or secure storage of the currency. If you get a credit car air vacuum machine, understand that you will need to establish a relationship with a credit card processor to facilitate transactions.

Air and Water Machines

An air and water machine is another type of combination unit we offer. While you probably understand that air is for filling tires, you might be wondering why customers might want water available. A low-pressure water stream is a convenient addition that can be used for minor cleaning of vehicle exteriors. It's perfect for quick glass cleaning and spot cleaning of the car body. Water can also be used to fill radiators and windshield wiper reservoirs.
