How to Match a Tanning Bed Replacement Acrylic Panel

Quick answer

Match your replacement acrylic by confirming your exact bed model and whether you need a canopy or bench panel, then measure the old panel before ordering. For UWE Lotus and Sportarredo LP 1 beds, use the model-specific replacement acrylic rather than a universal sheet.

Step-by-step: match your replacement acrylic panel

1. Identify your exact bed model and serial number: Check the manufacturer label on the bed frame or under the bench. Write down the full model name and number. Common mistake: relying on a similar-looking bed or a generic 'fits most' claim. Checkpoint: confirm the model matches the product title exactly, such as UWE Lotus or Sportarredo LP 1. If the label is missing, contact the bed manufacturer with photos before ordering.
2. Decide whether you need a canopy or bench panel: The canopy is the top acrylic; the bench is the bottom. Inspect both for cracks or haze. Some beds use different acrylic types for each position. Common mistake: ordering one panel assuming both are identical. Checkpoint: verify the option type on the product page before adding to cart. If both panels are aged, replace them together to keep UV output even.
3. Measure the old panel before you order: Use a tape measure to record length, width, and thickness of the existing acrylic. Note the position of any mounting holes or cutouts. Common mistake: measuring the frame opening instead of the acrylic itself. Checkpoint: compare your measurements to the product's stated fitment; if they differ by more than a small margin, do not order. Keep a photo of your measurements with the order for easy reference.
4. Choose the correct acrylic type option: Select the acrylic type that matches your bed's original specification. If the product page offers multiple types, pick the one that corresponds to your model and panel position. Common mistake: choosing a lower-cost type that may not match UV transmission needs. Checkpoint: confirm the selected option is labeled for your exact bed model. When in doubt, ask the seller to confirm the option matches your serial number.
5. Inspect the delivery and test-fit before installation: Unpack the flat-shipped panel on a clean, padded surface. Check for cracks, warping, or edge damage. Test-fit the panel in the frame without forcing it. Common mistake: installing immediately without a dry fit. Checkpoint: the panel should sit flush with no gaps or pressure points; if it does not, stop and contact the seller. Photograph the panel before installation to document its condition.
