This raises a question, is it a good idea to purchase equipment that has quirky features that only become possible service problems and don't really address the needs of the tanners. More often than not these quirky features are directed to the salon owners desire to have something different rather than something that translates down to what a tanner is looking for. Just a thought. Tanners typically do not want to be sprayed while they are tanning. You are just buying potential headaches.

I have had people wait for 45 minutes to tan in our S Class! I had so much traffic for this bed that we put in a second one. I think it has a lot to do with the facials....but with all the bells and whistles it is an easy sale! People love the misting...

Re: s class beds by uwe,big problems

Does anyone know the proper way to clean out the face and body misters in the S-class. I am a new owner, and the misters are not working. I have plenty of triple distilled water. I was told it was probably the tubes.. is it a difficult thing to clean? thx.

Re: s class beds by uwe,big problems

You need to disassemble the misters and soak the heads in CLR and using an ultrasonic cleaner like for jewelry helps. If they are really clogged then you will need to replace them. Just sit down first when you call for pricing.

Re: s class beds by uwe,big problems

I wanna say that I remember the previous owner indicating to me that he had recently replaced something related to the misters... in the ballpark of 400 big ones. Someone else said to blow air through the tubes.. but, I will try soaking them in clr. thx

Re: s class beds by uwe,big problems

I tried clening the misters with jewelry cleaner i purchased at bed bath and beyond, but the mister was still blocked. Lucky i knew someone in the jewelry industry , and they had this special machine that managed to clean the misters completely.

Re: s class beds by uwe,big problems

I think companies are forgetting that people are using these beds in a commercial environment where they need to run all the time.

they should ship OUT OF ORDER signs with these things.
