Hydropad portable wash rack and Instant Car Wash (ICW) described in detail. It's modular, can be placed inside or out, does not require a sewer connection and can wash just a few, to 100's of cars per day!

This 20' x 24' Hydropad wash rack includes ramps and six-foot walls. Customer supplied canopy sheds rain water and protects wash operations from direct sunlight. The Instant Care Wash (ICW) provides pressure washers, water recycling equipment and all car wash tools. No sewer connection is required . The ICW is equipment not a construction project.

Room constraints require this 14' wide X 24' long wash rack array be located against a wall and that vehicles drive on and back off wash rack. Instant Care Wash (ICW) systems are modular and can be sized to fit any location.

Operator is using the Hydroblaster pressure washer that's integrated into Instant Car Wash (ICW) cabinet to wash vehicle. Hydroblaster uses recycled water to wet surface and remove course debris, including bugs. This is followed by a flow through soft touch brush using recycled water to release and sweep away road film. Car is rinsed with fresh water dried and moved off Hydropad wash rack.

This 14' wide X 24' long Hydropad wash rack includes walls and ramps, and is not connected to sewer. Excess water generated by rinsing cars with fresh water is accumulated in Recycle Water Storage Tank (RST) for periodic disposal.

This is a high throughput system (over 200 cars per day), with drive-on / drive-off ramps, wash booms for Hydroblaster pressure washer, soft touch flow through brush and final rinse tools.

Instant Car Wash (ICW) set up in a parking lot, covered with a temporary tent, connected to temporary power and a garden hose water supply for a special sale event that required washing of many cars. This exciting event is over now and the parking lot is just a parking lot again. Equipment was relocated and installed at another location where it's being used daily for cleaning vehicles.

Instant Car Wash™

Lots of cars to wash?

No sewer connection available?

Concerned about pollution or just want to maintain a 'green' image?

These were design requirements that lead to the groundbreaking design of Hydro Engineering, Inc's. Instant Car Wash (ICW)™.

ICW includes a wash water filtration system and a Hydroblaster pressure washer. The wash water filtration system includes a media filter that removes solids and uses Hydro Engineering Biodigesters to eliminate biodegradable contaminates like oil, bugs, and detergents, while also eliminating pathogens.

Recycled wash water is used by both Hydroblaster and a microfiber soft bristle brush to wash car, followed by a fresh water rinse. ICW is paired with a Hydropad wash rack platform that captures wash water so that it can be returned to ICW for reuse.

A flow through microfiber brush and recycled water are used to release road film from vehicle without cleaning chemicals. As a result, the amount of rinse water required is small virtually eliminating wash water discharge to sewer.

ICW can be used with cleaning chemicals but chemicals accumulate in recycling system and can cause foaming. Biodigesters consume cleaning chemicals and help control foaming issues, but additional rinse water is required which typically requires a sewer connection.

Here's how it works:

System is provided with three wash tools; a Hydroblaster, soft touch flow through wash brush and rinse wand.

Hydroblaster pressure washer is activated by pulling trigger on wash wand. Wash vehicle with filtered, recycled water to remove accumulated dirt and debris.

Open recycled water flow control valve on brush wand and use the microfiber brush to sweep road film from entire vehicle surface.

Use trigger controlled rinse wand supplied with fresh, (or even better) DI or RO spot free water to rinse vehicle.

Use blower, water blade, and/or towels to dry vehicle.

System requires power, water, and can be operated without a sewer connection. No construction is required.
