Tank Topics: Social Media

When you’re in the business of slinging nothingness, it takes a lot of work to create the ideal float environment. The hardest factor to get right in the float tank is usually water temperature — preferences are bound to vary across your floaters due to a natural variance in each individual’s skin temperature. Perfection is super subjective from person to person, and it’s hard to adjust for that.

While you can’t always deliver a float in which the air and water temperature are perfect, you can adjust based on individual customer feedback while avoiding extreme temperature variation by closely monitoring your tank’s temperatures.

Join Graham and Ashkahn on their search for the holy grail of floating — the perfect temperature.
