Tommy Site Models

Four Beautiful Site Models for Your Unique Needs

Different site models are better fits for different locations and personal goals. If you have a higher traffic count we may suggest an Express tunnel wash. If you are considering developing a destination site with larger investment, maybe a Flex or multi-profit Gas/C-Store/Wash model. For the smaller appetite or smaller site, we also have the Mini.

Energy efficient wash equipment, LED lighting, and clear roof design for natural sunlight.
Open Concept
Wide open wash bay with clear lines of sight for better control and management.
Perfect Layout
Easy entrances, natural stacking, and a left-in / right-out traffic loading pattern.
Stunning Visuals

Express

A free-standing car wash tunnel with record breaking power and processing ability, the Totally Tommy Express serves as the ultimate car wash platform.
Flex

A modern take on efficient car wash detailing, the Flex takes the Express design and adds a secondary conveyorized tunnel for interior detailing services.

POD System

The POD system is the biggest transformation to hit the car wash industry in nearly 20 years. We've brought the back room and wash bay together, delivering better line of sight operations, consolidating space, simplifying installation with pre-wiring and pre-plumbing, and opening up the wash to our signature micro-brew look.

Dual Belt

The Tommy Transporter Dual Belt Conveyor carries cars smoothly through the wash with no guide rails, reducing the risk of vehicle damage and equipment breakdown. The flush floor makes maintenance and vehicle loading far simpler, improving productivity year over year.

Backroom

A vast improvement over the eyesore backrooms most common in the industry. Because the backroom is contained in the attractive secondary tower we can rotate the facility in all directions and still capture interested customers. Every piece of equipment, from the service panel to the trash can, has a logical place set aside for it and the room is designed to save anywhere from $20,000 - $30,000 in installation costs with reduced plumbing and wiring distances.

Tommy Car Wash helped us develop the ultimate car wash that not only exceeded our expectations, but also our customers' expectations. The feedback has been incredible and we're washing more cars because of it.
We re-equipped five tunnels with Tommy's. It brightened up more than just our wash bay but also the energy of our team members and customers' experience.
