In what pattern should a tanning bed be cleaned?

Cleaning a tanning bed in the pattern of bottom, top, bottom is designed to maximize efficiency and effectiveness while ensuring thorough sanitation. This method begins at the base of the bed, where dirt and debris tend to accumulate more readily due to gravity. By starting at the bottom, you prevent dirt and contaminants from falling onto already cleaned surfaces as you move to the top.

After addressing the bottom, moving to the top area is crucial since this section is most exposed to clientele; it requires thorough cleaning to maintain hygiene and safety. Finally, going back to the bottom ensures that any residual contaminants that may have fallen during the cleaning of the top surfaces are addressed, providing a complete and comprehensive cleaning routine. This systematic approach not only enhances cleanliness but also allows for a more organized process, which can be particularly beneficial in busy tanning salons where time management is important.
