USA: Splash Car Wash breaks ground on new express site in Connecticut
Once completed, Splash will operate 25 wash tunnels in Connecticut, New York, and Vermont.
Splash Car Wash announced that the construction of a new express car wash has commenced in East Haven, Connecticut. Once completed, Splash will operate 25 wash tunnels in Connecticut, New York, and Vermont, according to a company’s press release.
The East Haven site will be equipped with a 125 foot wash tunnel and 20 self-service vacuums. The addition will allow Splash to expand its operations in the greater New Haven area, says CEO of Splash, Mark Curtis.
The construction is being overseen by Glen Sheeley, Director of Development and Construction for Splash, who recently built two Splash-owned express car wash sites operating under the Wash Co. brand in Middletown and White Plains, New York.
In December 2020, Splash acquired EcoWash, a car wash operator with two express sites located in Plattsburgh, New York and Williston, Vermont. Splash is currently in the process of adding free self-service vacuums, along with tunnel equipment package upgrades in both of these locations. "We have invested over $8,000,000 into our existing facilities over the past 24 months," added Mark Curtis.
Headquartered in Milford, Connecticut, Splash Car Wash was started in 1981 by Mark Curtis and Chris Fisher with a single location in Greenwich. Since that time, it has developed to over 35 locations, and currently operate carwash tunnels in Connecticut, Vermont, and New York. Many sites include detailing operations, six locations provide oil change services, and one location has a laundromat.
