For over 50 years, one piece of equipment has been a silent partner to service stations and car wash businesses across Australia: the Jetblaster™ Self-Serve Foaming Car Wash System, also known as the Auto-Valet.
Manufactured right here in Australia since the early 1970s, these units are still being built today with the same philosophy: simple, effective, and incredibly tough. Whether you are running an independent service station, a multi-bay car wash, or a business looking to generate extra income, here is why the Auto-Valet remains the gold standard.
A Proven Money Maker The Auto-Valet is designed to offer your clients a professional wash experience while you generate revenue. These machines are perfect for high-traffic areas, allowing businesses to offer an additional service to their clients.
Flexibility is key to profitability. You can configure these units to be coin-operated, card-operated, or both.
However, not every installation is about revenue. We also cater to private fleets or residential complexes where payment isn’t required. We can set the machines to “manual” mode, allowing your residents or staff to use the wash freely without needing coins or tokens.
Built Tough for Australian Conditions A car wash system lives in a wet, harsh environment. To combat this, we manufacture our machines in stainless-steel, delivering exceptional durability and rust resistance.
While the core design has remained true to its roots, we have upgraded the system over the years to ensure a long service life. Under the hood, you will find:
- High-quality components designed to minimize maintenance.
- A robust Italian pump and motor.
- A self-contained control box manufactured directly at our factory in Bayswater.
- Automatic chemical mixers.
Easy Installation and Configuration We have designed the Auto-Valet to be as “plug-and-play” as possible. Each machine comes complete with its own small air compressor, meaning all you need to operate them is a power source and a water connection.
We also understand that every site layout is different. When it comes to the boom arms (the overhead arm that holds the hose), you have options:
- Mounted to the top of the machine frame.
- Wall-mounted.
- Ceiling-mounted.
- Retractable hose reels (if booms cannot be used at your location).
Power Options to Suit Your Site Whether you have industrial power available or standard connections, we have a unit for you. The Auto-Valet is available in two standard versions:
- Single-Phase Cold-Water: 1800psi @ 9 litres per minute.
- 3-Phase Hot Water: 1800psi @ 9 litres per minute.
If you require a hidden setup, “Plant Room” versions of these machines are also available upon request, along with custom variations for pressure and water flow.
