That would actually be the biggest difference between the two competitors:
A-clr charges per rack, not for detergent used.
Eco charges for detergent.
In fact that's what Eco guys keep saying, "I don't sell dish-machines, I sell detergent".

That said, it would behoove A-clr to over dilute their detergent and Eco to run their mix rich. I don't believe the people that I've dealt with, on either side, would try to pull that with us. We're a fairly big account and it would be stupid of them to "kill the goose", so to speak.

Both companies rent machines, and they want you to rent -not buy.
We're buying. That's all there is to it. We're not signing another contract.

I just wanted some outside references; some opinions from people who don't stand to benefit from our decision.
You've given me that, so...

THANKS!
