Patent Pending — Ready for Market

Put your revenue behind solid concrete.

Standard steel enclosures are no match for a determined thief. Airco-Vac is a reinforced concrete vault that houses your air and vacuum equipment — and encases the entire payment mechanism inside the structure itself.

  • Stops break-ins: Reinforced concrete defeats the pry bars and cutting tools that open steel cabinets.
  • Protects revenue: Coin, cash, and card hardware are encased in the vault and reached only through a secured door.
  • Keeps you open: Fewer forced-entry repairs means less downtime and fewer customers lost to an out-of-order sign.

Roughly 27″ wide × 20″ deep

Available in multiple sizes, from a single air machine to a combined air-vacuum unit. Cast on-site or delivered pre-formed and set in place with a crane.

See how the Airco-Vac protects self-service air and vacuum equipment — and the revenue inside it — in sixty seconds.

How the Airco-Vac Works

The constant threat of theft at self-service locations like car washes and service centers is a major liability. Standard steel enclosures for air and vacuum machines are no match for determined thieves, who steal cash, take parts, and cause thousands of dollars in damage. The result is lost revenue, costly repairs, and service downtime that drives customers away.

Airco-Vac answers that with a security vault built entirely from reinforced concrete. The unit stands roughly twenty-seven inches wide and twenty inches deep, creating a formidable defense against forced entry. Internal piping carries both electrical power and air lines so services run seamlessly, and the entire payment mechanism — cash, coin, or credit card — is securely encased within the concrete structure. Airco-Vac stops break-ins, minimizes repair costs, and keeps you open for business.

The Problem

A thin steel cabinet is the only thing standing between a thief and a full day of coin revenue. Determined attackers pry the panels open, cut hoses, strip parts, and walk away with the cash — leaving operators with repair bills, insurance claims, and machines sitting out of service.

The Airco-Vac solution

The Solution

Airco-Vac replaces that cabinet with a solid concrete vault. Equipment mounts to steel plates embedded in the walls, utilities run underground through sealed sleeves, and coins and cash drop into a locked steel container encased in the concrete itself. Break-ins stop, repair costs fall, and the site stays open for business.

Features and Benefits

  • Solid Concrete Construction The full enclosure is cast from reinforced concrete rather than sheet steel, creating a formidable barrier against pry bars, cutting tools, and forced entry.
  • Encased Revenue Collection Coins and cash drop through an internal collection tube into a locked steel container encased within the concrete, retrieved only through a secured vault door.
  • Below-Grade Utility Routing Electrical, air, and water lines run up through sealed underground utility sleeves, so nothing is exposed at ground level where it could be cut or pried.
  • Secure, Controlled Access Air compressors, vacuum units, hoses, operating panels, and payment systems fasten directly to steel plates embedded within the vault, reachable only by authorized staff.
  • Flexible, Scalable Sizing Available in multiple sizes, from a single air machine to a combined air-vacuum unit, and cast on-site or delivered pre-formed and set in place with a crane.

The Story Behind the Airco-Vac

Inventor Judy Bernard of Iowa, Louisiana has created a solid-concrete vault that protects car wash air and vacuum equipment — along with the coin and cash revenue inside it — from theft and vandalism.

But how does it work? Air compressors, vacuum units, hoses, operating panels, and payment systems are mechanically fastened directly to steel plates embedded within the vault. Electrical, air, and water lines run up through sealed underground utility sleeves, so nothing is exposed at ground level where it could be cut or pried. Coins and cash drop through an internal collection tube into a locked steel container encased within the concrete itself, and are retrieved only through a secured vault door — putting the day’s revenue behind solid concrete rather than a thin metal panel.

Roughly 27 inches wide by 20 inches deep, the vault is available in multiple sizes, from a single air machine to a combined air-vacuum unit, and can be cast on-site or delivered pre-formed and set in place with a crane.
