How to inflate your mattress
To prevent moisture from being blown into the mattress, we recommend that you use the pump bag in the cover.
To do this, unroll the entire pump bag/cover. Connect the valve of the pump bag to the “IN” valve of your mattress. Blow about 10-20 cm from the inlet of the pump bag, to inflate the main volume as much as possible. Roll the bag on itself to the valve to push the air out of the main bag into your mattress.
What is the R-Value?
The R-Value is a measure of the thermal insulation. It measures the ability of a mattress to retain or prevent heat from escaping from a warm body (human body) to a cold floor.
The higher the R-Value, the better the insulation of the mattress.
Please note that the R-Values can be added; this means that you can use two mattresses and add their R-Values.
All our mattresses are tested to standard ASTM F3340-18.
What R-Value for what use?
R-value from 0 to 1.9: Hot season (summer) only
R-value from 2 to 3: 2 or 3-season (spring-summer-autumn)
R-value from 3 to 4: 4-season
R-value of 4.5 and higher: Use in all 4 seasons and in extreme conditions (glacier, far north and high altitudes)
Some tips on how to sleep well on your mattress
Once you are lying down, remember to adjust the inflation pressure of the mattress by slightly pressing the IN valve (with the cap open). A mattress that is too hard often leads to discomfort.
Silicone patches on the top of the mattress are designed to reduce the sliding of your sleeping bag on the mattress.
Other patches on the underside reduce the slippage of the mattress on the floor of your tent.
ADDITIONAL SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT INFORMATION
Textile dyeing requires a lot of water but also produces waste water from the dye baths.
To reduce this impact on the environment, we have chosen not to dye the threads on the top of the mattress, so this side is in its raw colour state. This process, called “greige” avoids polluting the water with dyes and reduces CO2 emissions compared to a dyed product.
How to repair a leak in your mattress
An inflatable mattress is not puncture-proof but it can be repaired!
When using it, great care should be taken in its installation and handling.
In the event of a problem, we recommend the use of self-adhesive repair patches (ref: 8584596).
