The Engineers at SMT have calculated the potential savings a country club would see when switching
from the traditional way for cleaning carts to the ease and reliability of the MEDALIST III Cleaning System.
The following ROI illustrates how an average club can save almost $4000 annually on water and labor alone.

ROI for MIII using Labor & Time Combined

Note: On average, golf courses wash carts 4 hours / day with a hose/nozzle combo.
For comparison purposes we will use water rates of $2 / 1000 gallons and labor rates of $7/ hour.

Standard Garden Hose & Spray Nozzle Combo

240 minutes x 4 gallons/minute = 960 gallons/day.
960 gallons/day x 365 days = 350,400 gallons annually
350,400 gallons x $2/1000 gallons = $700.80 annual water cost

4 hours/day x $7/hour = $28 daily $28 x 365 days = $10,220 annual labor

$700.80 (water) + $10,220 (labor) = $10,920.80 total annual cost

MEDALIST III Labor & Time

Note: The MIII uses water at a rate of 2.2 gallons / minute. Studies show that
labor is reduced by 33% compared to using standard hose/nozzle combo.
The hi-pressure combined with soap injection cuts scrubbing time.

240 minutes reduced by 33% = 158.4 minutes wash time
158.4 minutes x 2.2 gallons / minute = 348.48 gallons daily
348.48 gallons daily x 365 days = 127,195 gallons annually
127,195 gallons annually x $2/1000 gallons = $254.39 annual water cost

158.4 minutes/day x $7/hour = $18.48 daily $18.48 x 365 days = $6,745.20 labor

$254.39 (water) + $6,745.20 (labor) = $6999.59 total annual cost

THE TOTALS
Standard Hose Annual Cost: $10,920.80
Medalist III Annual Cost: $6,999.59
Annual Cost Savings: $ 3,921.21

The Medalist III pays for itself in 6 months!
