Sensory Deprivation Tanks — FAQs
What is a sensory deprivation tank and how does it work?
A sensory deprivation tank (float or isolation tank) is a light- and sound-reduced pod filled with temperature‑matched water supersaturated with Epsom salt. The solution creates effortless buoyancy, reducing external stimuli so the nervous system can relax while the body floats weightlessly.
Are sensory deprivation tanks safe?
Yes for most healthy adults. Tanks use medical‑grade magnesium sulfate and are designed for hygiene and ease of use. People with uncontrolled medical conditions, open wounds, contagious skin issues, or who are pregnant should consult a healthcare professional before use.
Can I install a float tank at home? What space and power do I need?
Most home models fit in a dedicated room with standard ceiling height. You’ll need a level floor with adequate load capacity, a grounded outlet per the unit spec, and access to water drainage. Many units run on standard household power; check the product’s electrical requirements.
How often should I float and for how long?
Common sessions run 45–90 minutes. New users often start weekly; experienced users float 1–3 times per week based on goals for stress relief, recovery, and sleep support.
How much salt does a float tank use and what’s the upkeep?
Typical volumes range 600–1,000+ lbs (270–450+ kg) of magnesium sulfate, topped up as needed. Routine tasks include testing salinity and pH, running filtration cycles between uses, wiping surfaces, and periodic solution replacement according to manufacturer guidance.
How are tanks cleaned between sessions?
Quality systems use multi‑stage filtration (mechanical + fine filters), disinfection protocols compatible with salt solutions, and timed filtration cycles between sessions. Users should shower before and after floating to maintain hygiene.
What water temperature and noise level should I expect?
The solution is typically maintained near skin‑neutral (~93–95°F / 34–35°C) to minimize thermal cues. Premium tanks are engineered for quiet operation; a dedicated, low‑noise room further improves the experience.
What about delivery, warranty, and support?
Our tanks include manufacturer warranties, white‑glove delivery options in select regions, and post‑purchase support. See individual product pages for coverage details and lead times.
The Benefits of Float Therapy
Float therapy has been used for decades to improve both physical and mental well-being.

This unique environment eliminates external stimuli, allowing your nervous system to relax on a profound level.
Stress & Anxiety Relief: Reduce cortisol levels and experience deep calm.
Muscle Recovery: Accelerate recovery from training, sports, or injury.
Improved Sleep: Promote restorative sleep cycles by calming the nervous system.
