[Owning]
"For
me one of the nicest things about having my own tank is that I can float whenever
I want, for as long as I want, and as often as I want. And when I am finished,
I don't have to drive anywhere and because I made the investment I use it a lot
and I think it is one of the best things I ever bought - Peace, freedom and fun."
- Mary C.
Physical Requirements
Where to Put It
The ideal location is a warm,
quiet, indoor space. Since you do need to shower before and after floating it
is a luxury having the shower in the same room, but having it nearby is fine.
You can put the tank in your bedroom, basement, office, studio or ...
A tank
can be put outdoors, and indoors is much better if it gets cold where you live.
Plumbing
No plumbing hookup is required. The tank is self contained. You use a hose to get water to your tank. Once you fill it, you leave it filled and if you need to empty it , you use the drainage fitting that comes with your tank and a hose.
Electrical
Standard building current is sufficient. If your country's voltage is about 115 Volts, then the equipment uses 14 Amps. If your Voltage is about 230 Volts then the equipment requires 7 Amps. You need an outlet with 4 receptacles. Tell us the standard current in your country and we will give you the correct equipment.
Space
Somehow the Samadhi Tank seems to take up very little space, especially for something so big. The tank is approximately 4'x 8' (120cm x 240cm) and requires a space of approximately 5' x11' (I 50cm x 33 5cm). The rectangular shape blends into its surroundings suprisingly invisibly and you can use the space over it for a bed , shelves or a display. If you have a question about your location, ask us and we will help. We have seen some interesting tank placements and are happy to pass on some interesting ideas. For exact dimensions see Room Layout.
Concerns:
Humidity
Since the tank is enclosed, it does not make the room humid. It is completely safe to keep a tank in an office, as we have done.
Odor
The tank imparts no odor to the room it is in.
Weight
Civil engineers have assured us that if the place you live or work is safe to live in, then having a tank is safe there too.
Getting Out
If you live alone, although you can get one of our options to signal when your float is up, most people quickly learn they can trust their "sensing" to tell them when their preferred time is up. Learning to "know" improves with floating.
Will I Use It
You know your own
habits. Once you build a habit of using your tank you will maintain it, and the
results will be worth it. This is how Glenn Perry built his habit:
"I wanted to have a one hour float every day. Less than that, I thought I
didn't get where I wanted to be, and I liked to float in the morning. So if I
got up too late I would decide that the next day I would really need a
hour. If I didn't have that much time, then I was quickly out of the habit and
not using it at all. I finally decided to use it every day no matter how much
time I had, even if it was only a minute. I instantly developed the habit of using
it every day." Glenn
Resale Value
There
is a good, growing market for used tanks. It used to be hard to find buyers. Now
there is a service at Floatation.com,
which results in a tank sale taking about 2 weeks.
