Did you know that washing vehicles in the traditional way by using driveways allows detergents and other contaminates to run into the storm drain runoff and then empties directly into the river, adding pollutants to our water?
The International Carwash Association, an industry group representing commercial car wash companies, reports that automatic car washes use less than half the water of even the most careful home car washer. According to one report, washing a car at home typically uses between 80 and 140 gallons of water, while a commercial car wash averages less than 45 gallons per car.
The environmentally friendly way is to use Clear Water Car Wash that allows the water to go directly into the sanitary system for processing and thereby helps to keep our river fresh and pure.
