Tanning Salon Equipment




By Josh Riverside

Tanning salons continue to be extremely popular in all areas of the country, during all seasons. Both men and women alike frequently purchase tanning services at their favorite tanning salon.

Tanning services, often sold in packages, allow clients to visit for a specific number of tanning sessions. This is a better value than purchasing individual tanning sessions. Prices of tanning packages and individual sessions may vary, according to the specific tanning salon equipment that a client chooses to tan in.

Typically, tanning salon equipment includes stand-up tanning booths and tanning beds. Stand-up tanning booths allow the client to tan while standing up. Tanning bulbs mounted behind Plexiglas safely surround their body. Most booths feature a cooling fan and also speakers that allow a client to listen to music during their 5-20 minute tanning session. Booths may have 48, 54 or 60 UV lamps. Booths are typically made of steel, plastic, or wood and most accommodate a large capacity to comfortably fit various body types.

Tanning beds in which the customer lies down in are also available in different size frames to accommodate various body types. A tanning bed is typically made of a steel frame and features 100-160 watt tanning bulbs. The client lies down on a bed of Plexiglas, which features a pull down cover that also encases the tanning bulbs behind Plexiglass. Lay-down beds typically feature 24-46 bulbs that may vary in watts. The number of bulbs and the watts they carry, in combination with individual skin type, will determine how long a tanning session should last.

All tanning salon equipment operates on a timing mechanism that allows the equipment to operate for only a predetermined tanning session. Safety cut-off mechanisms are also built into tanning salon equipment to allow a client to quickly power down the equipment in case of emergency or malfunction.

Used Tanning Salon Equipment is a popular choice for new salon owners who are on a strict budget. Many veteran salon owners who choose to upgrade their tanning salon equipment offer used tanning salon equipment for a great price. All tanning beds feature bulbs that are easily replaced. Used tanning booths and beds that have sturdy frames and properly working electrical systems are a great option for the tanning salon owner looking to save money.
