Tanning Bed Bulbs

Tanning bed bulbs are used in every single tanning bed, tanning booth, sun hood, sun canopy or suntan lamp on the market. When you are buying a new, or especially a used home tanning bed, take a good look at the home tanning bed bulbs. Make sure that they are proper home tanning bed bulbs and that they meet modern FDA guidelines for health and safety. You should also consider how easy it is to get at the tanning bed bulbs. Make sure that the bulbs are not difficult to change when you need to. It is quite important, and a lot cheaper, if you can perform such simple maintenance operations yourself, when you own your own home tanning bed.

There are two very different, non-interchangeable kinds of tanning bed bulbs or lamps used in conventional and high pressure home tanning beds. You need to make sure that you get the right tanning bed bulbs for your home sun bed, because you cannot use just any sun lamp you like. If you are ordering replacement tanning bed bulbs on the Internet, check the make and model of your existing home tanning bed's lamps very carefully, because you have to ensure that the tanning bed bulbs you are buying are right for your home tanning bed.

High Pressure Tanning Bed Bulbs: high pressure beds use quartz tanning bed bulbs that come in a variety of sizes. The argon gas used in these home tanning bed bulbs is pressurized to slightly higher than atmospheric pressure. The tanning bulbs in these beds are located in the hood of the bed, so that you tan from above only. When you have tanned the skin on one side of your body for about 10-12 minutes, you have to turn over and tan the other side. The flat bed of these tanners is a lot more comfortable than that of a conventional home tanning bed.

One of the biggest advantage of these HP lamps is the amount of time you have to spend on the home tanning bed. Because you tan faster with these high pressure tanning bed bulbs, you need to spend less time on your home tanning bed, which means it works out cheaper. You can get the level of tan you require in about three weeks of three to five sessions each week. However, with a low pressure bed, it would take you at least a month to acquire the same depth of colour. Maintaining your tan is much easier too. You only need two or three sessions each month to maintain the colour, as opposed to four times that many visits to a conventional salon bed. Many of these tanning bed bulbs use UVA rays only, not UVB rays which are almost solely responsible for sunburn.

Conventional Tanning Bed Bulbs: Conventional, or low pressure sunbeds use long tube lamps that look like regular, domestic fluorescent tubes. The tanning bed bulbs are located above and below the tanning bed, which means that all the body areas are browned at the same time, without having to roll over during the tanning session.

Conventional home tanning beds use tanning bed bulbs that emit UVA and UVB rays in varying levels. Some use both rays and others emit mostly UVA with some UVB rays. UVA rays are responsible for the (premature) ageing effects on the skin and UVB rays are the burning rays that cause sun burn when you are outside in the sun. It is very important to determine which type of rays your tanning bed bulbs produce, because you must ensure you replace your existing tanning bed bulbs with the same new lamps after about 1,000 hours of use.

Another factor to bear in mind when selecting the type of tanning bed bulbs you use at home or in the salon, is the tanning bed lotion you will use. Different lotions are better for each type tanning bed bulb's light emissions. The staff at your tanning salon can help you choose a lotion that will work for the tanning bed bulbs you are using and your skin type. No matter what home tanning bed bulbs you are using, you should definitely always use a lotion. Lotions help you tan more quickly and moisturise your skin at the same time.
