How To Keep Empty Tanks Warm

How To Keep Empty Tanks Warm

The goal of any float center is to never have an empty tank. However, reality says that there will be slow times of the year, last minute cancelations, and unexplained openings in the schedule that will require you to maintain the temperature of an empty tank until...
60 vs 90 Minute Float Sessions

60 vs 90 Minute Float Sessions

I’ve had the pleasure of giving tours of our HelmBot software. While some of these tours are to established centers looking to switch scheduling softwares, most of the tours have been to centers in the final stages of opening. In talking about how to set up...
How To Give a Proper Walkthrough

How To Give a Proper Walkthrough

Why Float Centers Need “Walkthroughs” First time floaters typically need some instruction before they can get in the tank. A lot of things can go wrong if a client is not well informed before they attempt to float. In many cases, the first float is the most important...

Specific gravity is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density (mass of the same unit volume) of a reference substance. The reference substance is nearly always water for liquids or air for gases.” Specific gravity, then, in the case of our float tanks, is how dense the salt water is compared to regular, run of the mill water.

So, where should we keep the specific gravity of a float tank? READ MORE…
