Make no mistake, open air float tanks are a next level challenge for float centers. Graham and Ashkahn explain exactly what to look out for if you’re thinking of using one of these bad boys in your center. 

What to do when you open and when you close can seem almost arbitrary at times. How do you organize who does what and when? Aside from trial and error, Graham and Ashkahn explain how things work at Float On, which, despite running 24 hours, does have opening and closing shifts each day. 

What type of float tank should you get? Is one objectively better than others? How would you know? Graham and Ashkahn put their opinions out there on the debate. 

Whether to use Groupons or not is a question that nearly every float center will face. Having been in the industry for more than seven years, Graham and Ashkahn have experienced multiple angles of this conversation and try to lay out, in depth, the pros and cons of running these types of discounts for floats. 

Most float center owners read Goodnight Moon to their tanks every evening, lock their doors, and go home to spend a restful night in their non-saliferous/aqueous beds. Others buck such norms, and stay open all night.

Tune in to this week’s episode of the Daily Solutions podcast, where Graham and Ashkahn discuss what it’s like operating a 24/7 float center. While securing the right person to staff the graveyard shift has its challenges, it can be a worthwhile endeavor.
