Sunbed FAQs
How much will it cost me to rent a commercial sunbed?
The minimum cost is £46 a week. This works out at £200 per calendar month. The maximum cost is £57 a week. This works out at £250 per month. The cost depends on which sunbed you choose. The contract is for a minimum of 12 months. You must also pay an installation/delivery fee of £250 per sunbed. Prices are exclusive of VAT.
When and how do I pay?
The installation/delivery fee must be paid 2 weeks before you take delivery of the sunbed. The first month’s rent would be paid on the day of delivery. The next two monthly payments must be paid by direct debit. ( we will give you a form to hand in at your bank).
How soon could it be delivered?
Usually, 2 weeks after the initial payment however if you need longer to get your space ready then that’s fine. Equally, if you would like the sunbed sooner then we will try our best to accommodate you.
What happens after the 12 months are up?
That’s entirely up to you. If you are happy with the sunbed and our service then you don’t need to do anything. You’ll keep hold of the sunbed and your monthly direct debit will continue. If you don’t want to keep the sunbed then let us know and we’ll collect it. Your direct debit would then be canceled. If you decide that you’d like to buy the bed then just let us know.
Do I need a room to put it in?
Yes. In our experience sunbeds never take as much money when they are attached to a changing pod. Try to have a room built that will house the sunbed (please see the ‘Rooms’ section in the Advice & Information page). This ensures privacy for the customer.
Do I need to do anything electrically?
Yes. A commercial sunbed requires a separate cable that runs from your fuseboard. Please see the ‘Electrics’ section on the Advice & Information page.
Does the sunbed come with a meter?
Yes. We supply a token meter and 40 tokens with each sunbed. You will keep the tokens and a key for the token drawer. We will set the meter to equal 3 minutes per token unless you decide otherwise. Most operators charge their customers £1 per 3 minutes.
Will you take care of service and maintenance?
Yes we will. Service and maintenance are free when you rent a sunbed from us. If a tube isn’t working then let us know and we’ll get to you as soon as possible (usually on the next working day). We will replace any parts that are faulty completely free of charge.
What happens when the sunbed needs retubing?
The tubes should be replaced after 500 hours of use. Each sunbed has a counter that will allow you to read how many hours they have done. The cost of the retube is down to you. However, we will only charge you the wholesale cost ( @£12 per tube). By the time the tubes need replacing, your sunbed will have taken £10,000.
At the end of your 12 month contract, if your bed has completed 500 hrs and you want to sign a new 12 month contract, we will retube the Sunbed for you at no extra charge. Remember that by the time your Sunbed has completed 500 hours it will have taken around £10,000 (If you charge your customers £1 for 3 minutes).
