How to blow off an air mattress?
Content:
Many people live in small one-room apartments, and this encourages them to do everything to save space. One of these economical options is inflatable products for sleeping, but some people do not know how to blow out an air mattress. It is purchased instead of a bed, but, unlike it, it can be lowered and folded to a remote place, which frees up a lot of room space.
What you need to know about an air mattress?
Today there are a large number of different models. When choosing such an air bed, the main criterion is quality. Therefore, before buying, you should pay attention to the properties of the product and customer reviews.
Air beds have many advantages: mobility, compact storage, convenient transportation, for which a cover is attached, but the most important thing is comfort, which is not inferior to rest on a sofa. You need to choose a model that will provide a comfortable body position and convenience during relaxation. Such products can also be used in other areas, for example, you can swim in the sea, sunbathe in the sun, lie in the fresh air in the shade of trees in the country.
The most common are mattresses with an integrated auxiliary valve that holds the air inside, even if the cover is open. These models will be comfortable at home, outdoors, and at sea. They are universal for a wide variety of conditions, including extreme ones.
How to avoid mistakes when blowing off a mattress?
- To properly bleed air, the product must be laid out on a flat surface.
- There should be no sharp objects in the place where it will be blown off.
- Electric heaters and heaters with high temperatures should also be removed away.
- When operating the product, you should be careful with subzero temperatures, as they can damage its surface.
- Do not use high pressure pumps, such as a car compressor, to blow off.
How to blow off an air mattress?
To inflate the mattress, use a special external pump, and in order to blow it off, you need to exert certain forces and create some conditions. Before proceeding with the procedure, it is necessary to clean the product with a mild soapy solution, but in no case use aggressive cleaners. The surface must dry dry on its own, without the aid of electric heaters or heaters. The same applies to the mattress that was used for swimming - it must also be thoroughly dried.
To start the procedure, you must open the valve and wait for the air to deflate itself. In this case, it is forbidden to press on it in anticipation of what will turn out faster - the process will not accelerate, and the product may be damaged. The larger the volume of the inflatable bed, the longer it will be necessary to wait until the air comes out completely, but even in this case it is impossible to press hard.
It is important to properly operate and care for the mattress. So, a single air bed can be lowered in 10-20 minutes, but there are difficulties. In the hole through which the air space is pumped, there are special valves that prevent air from escaping at external pressure. To bleed air, open the valve and squeeze it slightly. Thus, the jumper bends, which allows you to blow faster.
Advantages of a mattress with a flap
Models and brands of air beds are made with a variety of valves, therefore, when venting, you need to take into account the shape of the valve.
- To lower the mattress with the classic valve, you need to open it, lightly press and gradually twist the product.
- In the case when the valve is arranged, like a bicycle or a car, you need to squeeze it on both sides with your fingers, and the hole will become open for easy air release. In another case, you can use the match by pressing it on the central nipple. It will be convenient to work together when one blows away, and the second twists.
- Models with a removable valve are the simplest. It is necessary to unscrew the valve as a whole, and the air will quickly exhaust itself.
- There is an option when you can use the same electric pump for downloading that you used to inflate. All you need to do is turn on the “Air Release” mode. In this case, do not use a hand pump.
How to lower the air mattress pump?
Pumps for air beds are very convenient and practical devices that help in the process of their operation. When buying such frameless furniture, it is recommended to purchase a pump with two modes: for pumping and lowering. Typically, in such cases, low pressure pumps are used:
- mechanical (manual, foot) require additional force;
- electric allow you to lower the mattress with the touch of a button "Blowing air".
The main rule of inflation is the regulation of elasticity, the air inside the product should be no more than ¾ of the total volume, otherwise the seams may break and the mattress will burst. If it is pumped, you need to let some air out of it.
How to blow off a mattress using a foot pump? To do this, you will need to apply a little less force than when inflating. The pump should be connected to the product and pressed on that air chamber, which is filled with air, and then lets it out. A set of mechanical pumps is usually supplemented with small adapters, with the help of which air is evacuated from the product.
Using an electric device, the descent takes place through a hose, which is inserted into a specially designated hole and connected to an electric pump. It has a “Blowing air” mode, after which the descent process begins.
An air mattress was invented in order to bring more comfort to everyday life. This convenient product is suitable for sleeping, bathing and other ways of relaxing. It is important to know the rules of operation and care for it.
