Hoffman Car Wash Opens New Location

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Hoffman Car Wash has opened its 21st location and its first in the city.

The facility, which is located near the corner of Ballston Avenue (Route50) and Northline Road, just north of Ballston Spa, features first-of-its-kind car wash technology.

Hoffman Car Wash designed and locally fabricated four new robotic cleaning systems that improve quality and increase efficiency. The automated equipment – the most advanced in the industry – was engineered to provide the highest quality wash throughout the 140-foot tunnel.

The location is designed for customer convenience. When entering the property, drivers will be directed to two automatic payment lanes. A radio-frequency identification (RFID) system will read automatically Unlimited Wash Club Members’ RFID tags for easy and quick access.

Single-pay customers will select their wash via automated tellers before entering the wash tunnel.

The facility also includes a 14-station, 100-horsepower, free vacuum system similar to Hoffman Car Wash’s Troy and Amsterdam locations. Additionally, the Saratoga Springs car wash is equipped with 2,000,000 BTUs of heated drying, the most powerful drying unit in the company’s 52-year history.

Hoffman Car Wash relied on local business throughout the construction process. Phinney Design Group (Saratoga Springs) designed the building and Machnick Builders (Green Island) handled the construction. Miller Mechanical Services (Glens Falls) and Doty Machine Works, Inc. (Fort Edward) built the Hoffman-designed conveyor, prepping robot, side and rear cleaning robots and the wheel-cleaning robot.
