Yes, Jazz is certified as a Water Smart Car Wash by Denver Water, and we are a member of Water Savers International. In addition, many of the solutions we use to clean your vehicle are environmentally friendly.

Absolutely! At Jazz Car Wash & Detailing, in fact, it is much safer for the environment to wash your car at a professional car wash than in your driveway. We reclaim and recycle all of our car wash water, strictly control the fresh water flow rates and water pressure in our car wash and use considerably less water per car than you would use if you were to wash your car in the driveway. Our dirty water is recycled and reused and all debris is collected by professional vacuum trucks and sent directly to a treatment plant, unlike washing in the driveway, where the waste water goes down the storm drain and can end up as runoff in local rivers, lakes, or streams. All mud and debris from the cars we wash is held in a confined trench and then removed regularly by a professional disposal company.

All customers remain in their car when going through the car wash tunnel.

Magnesium chloride is a salt compound that is pre-applied to the roads in the winter to prevent ice. When left on your car, it can cause wiring corrosion and rust. In order to properly protect your car from magnesium chloride be sure to wash your car at least every week throughout the winter and early spring months. Read more about magnesium chloride here, or click here for the Colorado Department of Transportation’s Fact Sheet.

We recommend you wash your vehicle a minimum of twice a month. Wash frequency really depends on the climate and environment where you live. In Colorado, it is important to wash frequently enough to remove pollutants that stick on your vehicle’s surface such as acid rain spots; harsh dust which, if rubbed can scratch the paint; bugs, which will bake into your paint; tree sap, which will etch your paint; and magnesium chloride/ salt, which will ruin your chrome and metal surfaces. The longer you leave your car dirty, the harder it is to clean and maintain the interior and exterior of the car. Industry experts state that a properly-maintained vehicle will retain its value longer and garner a higher price when it comes to resale.

We recommend you wax your vehicle a minimum of three times a year. Darker colored cars should be waxed four times per year.

The best way to protect your car is by washing not only the top of the car, but also the undercarriage. We recommend an undercarriage wash at least every other week in the spring and winter. The undercarriage wash is a high-pressure rinse that flushes all of the salt and road grime from the underside of your car.

We are the only car wash in Colorado that uses patented Lammscloth by NS Wash Systems of California. Using the Lammscloth is equivalent to hand washing your vehicle with a real lamb’s wool wash mitt, yet even safer than washing it by hand yourself!

Also, our cleaning professionals wear red Ferrari jumpsuits that are specially designed with hidden zippers to virtually eliminate any risk of scratching your car. Finally, our 13 professional grade vacuum stations ensure that your car’s interior is cleaned thoroughly and efficiently with minimal waiting.

While your vehicle is being cleaned, you can relax and watch the process in our luxurious waiting area. Our lounge has complimentary wifi, daily newspapers, magazines, high-definition television, and other amenities to ensure you are comfortable while you wait. If you prefer the outdoors, our patio includes umbrellas and comfortable furniture. In addition, brewed coffee is always on the house for our car wash and detail clients.
