When changing lamps in a tanning salon, what should the exposure times be adjusted to?

When changing lamps in a tanning salon, adjusting the exposure times to be 20-30 percent shorter is important due to the varying intensity and output of the new lamps compared to the old ones. New lamps can have increased UV output, which means that the same exposure time used for previous lamps may result in overexposure and increase the risk of skin damage or other adverse effects from tanning.

By reducing exposure times, tanners can safely acclimate to the new lamp's intensity while minimizing the risk of burning or skin injury. This practice ensures that clients can achieve their desired tan while still protecting their skin health. Adjusting the exposure times in this manner is a standard and important safety protocol in salons to maintain client safety and satisfaction.
