Re: Most profitable unit?

The most profitable unit for most salons is going to be a High Pressure unit.

Re: Most profitable unit?

Only after it's paid for. My middle level (Sunstorm) was my best investment. They get used the most along with Sungate and Supersonic, small Sundash, sits pretty idle most of the day, night time they get filled up though.

Re: Most profitable unit?

everything in my place makes me "top dollar". If it costs you to run then don't run it.

My first HP unit paid for itself in 9 months and that was with the extra 10 grand I spent for ac and remodeling the front of the salon to fit it in.
If I had to take out the HP, I would sell my salons and get out of tanning.
