Q1: How does the alternating pressure system work?
The pump inflates and deflates air cells in an alternating cycle (every 10-12 minutes). This ensures no single part of the body is under constant pressure, which is key to preventing bedsores.
Q2: Is the air pump noisy for nighttime use?
No, the pump is designed with whisper-quiet technology to ensure the patient can sleep undisturbed while the system remains active.
Q3: How do I clean and maintain the mattress?
The medical-grade PVC surface is waterproof. You can wipe it down with a mild soapy cloth or medical disinfectant. Do not submerge the pump in water.
Q4: Can this mattress be used on a standard home bed?
Yes, its 200x90cm dimensions allow it to fit most standard twin or medical bed frames. The end flaps help secure it to the existing mattress.
Q5: What is the maximum weight capacity?
The HF6001 model is reinforced to support a maximum weight capacity of up to 135kg (approx. 297 lbs).
Q6: What is included in the package?
The standard package includes the alternating pressure mattress, the adjustable air pump, a connecting hose, and a repair kit (glue and patches).
