First you need a room minimum 10' by 10' . Preferably quiet with no heavy noise. The room must be 
warm enough, 20 to 22 Celsius and  waterproof floor around the Tank. Humidity is 100% inside but stays normal outside the tank. No special ventilation. The weight including Epsom salt is around 900 lbs.

  • What you need to construct the floatation tank

You must be handy and enjoy construction and creation or have it build by someone else.

  • Parts

800 lbs of  Epsom salt,15 x 25 kg bag MgSO4 u.s.p ($500)
Plywood sheets, 2x3, 2x2 studs. Plastic cardboard sheets
Reflective isolation foil . 
Waterbed heater, safety liner, king size mattress, electronic thermostat
Water filtration parts and pump.
Glue, paint, fan, hardware parts and common tools

 

  • Cost

Of course you will need money ! it can turn around $1000 to $1200 Canadian dollars, including Epsom salt.
