Wiper blades for Southeast Reno and the airport drivers: Reno South (Longley Lane), 8 minutes

Our Longley Lane service center sits inside 89502, about 8 minutes and 2.6 miles from the middle of the ZIP by Mill Street, Kietzke Lane or South McCarran, and it replaces wiper blades while you wait. Inspect blades twice a year, the Car Care Council says, and replace them at the first streak.

The weather station that sets Reno's official numbers is in this ZIP, at the Reno-Tahoe International Airport. So when NOAA's 1991-2020 normals say 20.9 inches of snow, 7.35 inches of precipitation, about 65 days at 90 degrees or more and about 122 freezing nights a year, that is southeast Reno's weather, measured a few minutes from our service center. Those numbers explain most of what happens to a wiper blade here.

Reading the airport numbers

Put together, that is a climate where a blade is attacked more by weather than by use. The wipers may run only a few dozen days a year, but the rubber ages every day.

  • About 65 days at 90 F or hotter: ultraviolet light and heat harden the rubber edge
  • About 122 nights at or below freezing: frost and ice crack a hardened edge and tear blades switched on while frozen
  • About 20.9 inches of snow, mostly December to March: slush and plow spray that need a sharp edge
  • Only about 7.35 inches of precipitation: long dry spells, dust on the glass, and grit under the blade

Flat, open and windy

Southeast Reno is mostly flat ground around the airport, the industrial streets off Kietzke and Mill, and neighborhoods with wide-open lots. Dust from construction and the dry valley floor settles on windshields between storms. The 89502 ZIP averages 1.61 vehicles per household and a mean commute of 18.6 minutes (Census ACS 5-year 2024), lots of short trips through that dust. Spray before you wipe, every time.

Choosing a blade

Beam blades are a single spring-steel strip inside rubber, with no hinges, and they fit most vehicles made in the last decade or so. Conventional blades have a metal frame and remain the standard fit on many older cars and work trucks. Winter blades put a rubber boot over the frame for snow. On a car that sees mostly city driving, any well-fitted fresh blade does the job; the important thing is replacing it when the edge goes.

A short trip to Longley Lane

From most of 89502, take Mill Street, Kietzke Lane or South McCarran to Longley Lane; OSRM routing puts 4993 Longley Ln about 8 minutes and 2.6 miles from the ZIP's center. Hours are Monday through Friday 8 to 5 and Saturday 8 to 3, closed Sunday.

No appointment. We check the blades, show you any worn one and the price, and change them only if you want. Washer fluid is topped off. If an oil change or a smog check is due, both happen in the same bay.
