A question for 818 owners - TanToday - Helping Salon Owners, One At A Time, Since 2000!

We are having a local make up company come in and do mini facials feb 13th.
we sold it as a HP session and 30 min minifacial package.
Ive never had the 818 back to back sessions all day long every 30 min, i know there is a temp switch in the top of it and the room is adequatly cooled.
should i be worried about it getting too hot and shutting itself off?
should i put a floor fan in the room just for the day blowing on the back of the canopy?
(room is adequately cooled and i have a 5 ton blower in the drop cieling sucking on the 818s output!)
thanks!

With that much cooling, it could run for 24 hours straight and not have a problem with cooling itself. I wouldn't be worrried. I have some 818's that run 20 sessions in a row with less cooling than that with no problem.

Just make sure you have either a fan or a portable A.C at the head that keeps the cool air blowing across the customer.

If you keep the head cool , you will keep the rest of the body cool
