Local rules and what to check
A car wash that runs as a business needs a Mayor's permit from its city. The fees depend on the city and barangay, and one source puts them at ₱300 to ₱1,000 depending on the barangay. Ask the seller to put the warranty and service terms in writing before you pay, and check that the machine comes with the paperwork you need.
Season and climate
The climate is tropical: hot all year, with a wet and a dry season instead of winter and summer, so equipment is in use year-round. Rain and humidity in the wet season mean that drainage at the bay matters, so mention your site's drainage in the request.
How equipment is bought here
Prices are quoted per set or per unit, and some listings show US dollars or euros, so ask for the price in pesos. Delivery and installation are separate items that buyers ask about, so name the delivery city in your request. Brands such as EBA and Washpower appear among automatic car wash machines in the listings, and warranty and after-sales service are worth comparing between them.
What to write in your request
List the equipment you need, the number of bays or sets, and whether you want new or used. Add the brand and model if you already know them, the warranty and service you expect, the city for delivery and installation, and your budget. The more exact the list, the more comparable the offers will be.
