Dual Drop Design
We've engineered the perfect modular vacuum system, available in either onboard or central producer styles with two hoses, trash cans, canopy, light, speaker, and concrete drawing. The unique canopy shades customers and drops hoses at the rear back corners of both sides of the vehicle. This cohesive, elegant system stands head and shoulders above other, uninspiring car wash vacuum equipment.
-
Dual Hoses
The hoses are 1.5 inches at the nozzle, the perfect diameter for easy handling, and taper outwards along the hose in order to avoid clogging and maximize power. A swivel allows the hoses to twist and easily disconnect for maintenance.
-
Sun Canopy
The triangular canopy is colorful and attractive, and offers partial shade for customer comfort. The assembly is supported by curved arch pipes, extending the facility's circular theme.
-
Signage
Stainless steel sign plates identify the vacuum station while illuminated signage over the pole attract attention in the evening and early morning. Instruction decals are installed directly on the control panel.

Stainless Steel
In ten years, what shape will your vacuums be in? From heavy use to wear and tear from the environment, Tommy Vacuums stand up to the challenge of daily operation and will still look and run great years into the future.
Motor Options
Tommy vacuums are designed for convenience and function, without sacrificing power. Choose between central vacuum or onboard canister vacuum producers.
-
Dual Motor
Our proprietary 220v dual motor producer powers both hoses simultaneously with paired onboard motors. Inside, a cartridge filter provides more surface area than any comparable vacuum on the market. The chamber has ample dirt capacity and a quick release panel for easy clean-out.

-
Central Vacuum
Utilize the Tommy vacuum system with our own proprietary central producer design! The central producer is pole mounted nearby and powers up to five vacuum stations simultaneously. Individual stanchion separators allow for easy clean out and vacuum maintenance in this consolidated vacuum system.
-
Payment Methods
Select the appropriate vacuum control method for your facility and service model, whether you are planning to offer free vacuums or paid vacuums.
-
Free
Everyone loves free! Vacuums are fitted with a big red push button to start, triggering the unit to run for a set time. Customers never have trouble with a single button and repeated pushes are all it takes if they need more time.
-
Credit Card / Bill / Coin
Our all-inclusive option features a stainless steel payment box with a system connecting electronic credit card payment, paper currency, and coins. This all-in-one box also comes with an illuminated countdown timer.

Coin & Token
For light duty vacuums this old school coin and token acceptor is fully compatible with the Tommy Vacuum system and works well with in-house token programs or in smaller communities.
The Tommy Ball
These multi-purpose wash add-ons have appeared in hundreds of car washes around the world and today have garnered such brand awareness that many consumers associate brightly colored red and blue plastic spheres with local car washes and soap bubbles.
-
Solid Ball
The solid ball is more than decorative, and we often call it the Tommy Traffic Cone for its usefulness traffic and loading direction. The solid ball provides better visibility than your average traffic cone with better visual appeal.
-
Trash Balls
These hollow containers are placed around the property as trash receptacles or planters. Movable planters are also great for blocking off lanes when you need to do maintenance, and are friendlier than sawhorses or metal drums.
-
Vacuum Holder Ball
The trash ball can be adapted with nozzle receivers for the vacuum hoses, making it the perfect functional accessory for a complete Tommy Vacuum station.

Speaker
The stanchion contains space for an optional add-on waterproof Polk Audio speaker. You can play high fidelity music of your choice so customers don't need to play their own.

Optional Vending Kits
