It’s the best place to wash your car if you can’t

take it to a car wash facility.

Answer

The wash water at the car wash facility is treated before it is released to the sanitary sewer system where the water is further cleaned at the waste water treatment facility before it is returned to our streams. Additionally, most commercial car wash facilities use 60% less water in the entire washing process than simply rinsing you car at home.
