How to Change the Bulbs in SunQuest Pro 26 Tanning Bed
To keep a tanning bed working effectively, you must periodically change the tanning bulbs. According to the SunQuest Pro 26R user guide, you should replace the tanning bulbs every 800 to 1,000 hours. Although bulbs continue to work long after this time, they lose effectiveness, causing you to spend more time in the tanning bed to maintain your tan. Replacing the bulbs in the SunQuest Pro 26 requires no special tools. Does this Spark an idea?
