The classic enclosed capsule with a hinged lid. Deepest sensory deprivation; you lie down and pull the lid to.
Water & cleaning at Float Huntsville
Sanitation is the thing seasoned floaters care about most, and most directories never show it. Between every float, the salt water should be pumped through fine filtration and disinfected — salt alone is not enough. From Float Huntsville's own information: filters the full tank 3× between floats, UV sterilization, hydrogen peroxide.

From the reviews
Wonderful massage by the lovely owner, Stephanie. The hot stones were a special touch I will definitely try again. Although I didn't float on this visit, my husband and I enjoyed Floating and the Infrared sauna in November for our 30th Anniversary. We both "floated" out the door after our morning of pampering!
Very relaxing today. FLOAT Huntsville is a bit of drive for me but it is worth it. It is always clean, organized and welcoming. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. There are services other than the float as well. They ask what music to play, and they stay on time.
I had my first float a few weeks ago. It was absolutely amazing. I have fibromyalgia. It felt like my joints were numb while I was floating. It was an amazing sensation. I just wish that I could do this daily for the pain relief.
John helped my wife and I do our first ever float. It was a great and interesting experience, I highly recommend this especially if you work a high pressure job and haven't tried total sensory isolation.
Your first float at Float Huntsville
Never floated before? Almost no one has their first time, and a good center expects it. Here's what to know. What it is: you float effortlessly in about ten inches of skin-temperature water saturated with around 1,000 lbs of Epsom salt — so dense you cannot sink. In the dark and quiet, with no light, sound, or gravity to react to, your nervous system downshifts. Before you come: don't shave or wax for a day beforehand (salt stings fresh cuts — they'll have barrier ointment if you nick yourself), skip caffeine, eat a light meal an hour or two before, and remove contacts. If you colored your hair recently, wait a few days. In the tank: shower first, put earplugs in before you get wet, and keep a fresh-water spray bottle within reach for salt in the eyes. You can leave the light or music on until you settle, then turn them off from inside. Hold your arms out for the first 20–30 seconds to stop bobbing, then let go. It takes a few tries — the first 20 minutes are usually your mind winding down. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to shower and get oriented.
