How often does Tropic Tan change its tanning lamps and why does it matter?
A staff person that specializes in maintaining the equipment at all the locations regularly tests the tanning lamps to ensure their proper performance. The computer system that controls the tanning beds also monitors the tanning lamp life continuously. Tanning lamps are usually rated to have a useful life of a certain number of hours (1000 is normal). The performance of the lamps gradually decreases over their useful life. Tropic Tan doesn’t wait for the useful life to end but instead changes lamps long before according to strict performance standards it has established. Tanning lamps that some tanning centers would continue to use would be long since replaced by Tropic Tan.
