Summary
Hollywood Motor Co. transformed an older building into a modern auto dealership with a full-service repair facility.
To meet safety and health regulations, the shop needed a dependable vehicle exhaust removal system.
The Challenge
Hollywood Motor Co. services a wide range of vehicles, but the renovation left no room in the budget for a complex exhaust extraction system.
The Solution
Fume-A-Vent equipped Hollywood Motor Co. with rope-and-pulley simple drop systems, enabling dual exhaust service at each lift.
The systems retract smoothly out of the way when not in use and deploy easily when needed. Paired with the right tailpipe adapters, they handle everything from compact cars to larger vehicles.
Overhead systems remain our most popular option for their flexibility and cost-effectiveness. Our team helps choose the right hose temperature rating, diameter, length, and tailpipe adapter for each application.
Why it worked
- Dual service: two drops at every lift
- Retracts overhead: clear floors, no trip hazards
- Fits every vehicle: compact cars to larger vehicles
- No operating costs: nothing to run or maintain
The Outcome
Hollywood Motor Co. can now service vehicles safely in a clean, compliant shop, and the savings let the dealership put more of its budget into the rest of the renovation.
