Tips for soundproofing to avoid road noise – DSP 23

by Float Tank Solutions | Dec 20, 2017

Soon after you open, you might realize that you’ve gotten a lot of the same complaint: The float was great, but I heard all this rumbling.

Odds are, your floaters are hearing one of two things — traffic on the road outside or their very hungry tummy.

If it’s the latter, feed them some post float snacks and tea. If the former, what can you do?

Aside from difficult and expensive projects, like building new walls or lobbying for the removal of cars from municipal streets, it turns out there are some pretty simple and cheap solutions that will block traffic noise.

Like inexpensive rubber pucks.

Pucks?

Puck yeah. Listen above or read below to learn more.

Concerns for running pumps with floaters in tanks – DSP 21

by Float Tank Solutions | Dec 18, 2017

In today’s episode of the Daily Solutions Podcast, Graham & Ashkahn dole out some advice on why you shouldn’t run pumps when floaters are in your tanks.

The best case scenario if a pump goes on with someone still in it — their float is ruined. Worst case scenario? Their hair could get stuck in the filter or worse.

In our risk-averse society, these disaster scenarios compel us to set up safeguards to make sure they never happen. At Float On, we make it a point to never run a tank when a floater is still in it.

As they say, “Plan for the worst, hope for theta waves.”
