SunVision tanning beds have many products and beds available commercially and in homes throughout the nation. The SunVision series tanning beds are truly unique with genuine Wolff tanning lamps, SolarMax IFT face tanners, and digital timers. SunVision beds are popular because they feature a very comfortable design, and are also durable. Their selection of tanning beds is appealing to commercial salons as well as home owners. One of the more popular models, the SunVision Elite 30, is popular because it is cheap enough for the average Joe to purchase for their home but also good for a tanning long. Here are a few of its key features:
* The SunVision Elite 30 is among the most durable and long lasting tanning beds on the market. This is due to SunVision's signature "Duramax" material. The mainframe of the bed is specifically shaped from aluminum and steel, which not only adds durability but makes it resistant to corrosions. It is easy to maintain which makes it an even better deal, especially if you don't have much time but enjoy the luxury of home tanning.
* SunVision puts "ease of maintenance" first on their Elite 30 bed. The state of the art provides easy access to its internal components with sliding utility drawers that are well-located. That way you never have to move or reposition the bed.
* The bed's features are what you expect to find in expensive higher-end models. It contains the exclusive "speed" tanning bulbs and components, and the "Biotech" tunnel architecture that makes tanning much faster and more efficient. The Biotech theory is the key to its simplicity - the 7+ foot tanning surface is curved to provide a comfy tanning position along with an all-angle tan.
* The Elite 30 also features Wolff lamps. These state of the art lamps surround you and give you the even bronzed tan that you're looking for. It comes with 16 Wolff lamps in the canopy, and 14 inside the bench, offering seamless, all-angle tanning goodness. Possibly the best part of the Elite 30 bed, is the facial area of the bed. In this area, the bulbs are spread out further than the rest of the bed for smoother and wider tanning coverage. With its glossed aluminum reflectors and acrylic sheets, your skin absorbs more of the UV rays. This makes the tanning session more efficient.
* The Elite 30 offers superior cooling with the patented 'Superflow' system along with "after tan" fans. You can choose to add more fans and even speakers for music if you decide to upgrade. This will ensure a more comfortable, relaxing tanning session.
* The Sunvision Elite 30 retails at around $6,000, but you can find them for as low as $4,500 brand new without the facial tanning module. Sunvision retailers have different offers with either low or no interest rates on your payment installments. The Elite 30, along with any Sunvision bed, comes standard with a limited lifetime warranty. You can rest easy knowing your bed is covered by Sunvision.
Like all Sunvision tanning beds, the Elite 30 does not disappoint. It comes with many high-end model features that you'll love.
Wolff Sunvision Tanning Bed
In today's culture, everyone seeks a healthy, glowing tan. Unfortunately, not all of us have the luxury of living where the sun always shines. Necessity being the mother of invention, science has addressed this gap by giving us indoor tanning. Today, the varieties of indoor tanning equipment are limited only by the human imagination.
Tanning beds and booths are differentiated by three main factors. The first if these is the strength of the bulbs it contains. The power of a given bulb is measured in terms of the wattage associated with it. Tanning bulbs generally are either 100 watts or 160 watts. All else being equal, a 160 watt bulb will give a quicker and deeper tan than a 100 watt bulb.
However, wattage is only the first metric. Whether the bulbs possess a built in reflector is the second critical point. Built in reflectors greatly improve the effectiveness of a bulb. A 100 watt bulb with a built in reflector (referred to as HOR in the industry) is arguably more effective than a 160 watt bulb without a reflectors (referred to as VHO).
Lastly, the efficacy of a given bed is also driven by the number of bulbs present. Small portable units can have as few as 4 bulbs. The largest commercial units can have in excess of 50 bulbs. Again, the number of bulbs is just one of three factors effecting the overall "power" of the machine. A bed with 26 bulbs of 160 watts with built in reflectors could produce much better results than a 42 bulb bed only having 100 watt non reflective bulbs.
Those seeking to acquire a tanning bed are best served to educate themselves on these various components of tanning bed effectiveness. The numbers and figures can prove to be deceptive without a good grounding in the basic science behind them. Strictly going by the number of bulbs present in a given bed can lead to disappointing results for you or your customers.
Maximization of UV output has the positive effect of a quicker, more noticeable tan. However, the downside is corresponding increased health risks. Many studies have been done pertaining to long term exposure to the type of rays which create suntans. This represents the final factor one needs to include within their analysis.
Tanning salons have become almost as pervasive as fast food restaurants. Along with their growth there has been a proliferation of new beds and configurations. It often can be confusing for the novice buyer. A 26 bulb tanning bed sometimes can be better than a 42 bulb bed. All factors need to be considered before one makes an investment in the world of tanning equipment.
