Leaks

1. Seam leaks
2. Cuts & Punctures

If the mattress is not drained:

1. Absorb any water in the cavity with a large bath towel.
2. Place paper towels around the suspected area, i.e., corners and bottom seam.
3. Lay on the bed 2 to 3 minutes to apply pressure.
4. Check the paper towel for location of the leak.
5. Circle the leak with a magic marker.
6. If the leak is in the seam, this is not a repairable problem, and requires mattress replacement. If the mattress is under warranty, see the warranty manual for replacement instructions.
7. If the leak is not in the seam, and is a small cut or pinhole, a patch or a drop of glue will repair the leak.

If the mattress is drained:

1. Blow the mattress up with air using a shop vac or vacuum that reverses air. Add enough air that the mattress is full, but not to the point it looks like it will explode!.
2. Immediately replace the cap and seal to maintain air pressure inside mattress. Take a soapy cloth or squirt bottle with dish soap and work around the areas suspected, i.e., seams and corners. Bubbles will appear in the defective area. The mattress may also emit a high pitched squeal where the leak is located. TIP Some pinholes are very difficult to detect, and moving your inside wrist over suspected areas may be helpful in locating the leak by detecting air release. This is generally an area of the body that is very sensitive to air.

1. It is not necessary to drain the mattress if the leak is on the top.
2. Remove the cap & insert to allow a small amount of air into the mattress, then replace the cap & insert.
3. Push the air bubble up to the the defective area. Make sure the area is dry.
4. Add a drop of glue if the area is small, or use a patch if it is a small cut.
5. Place vinyl back on water.
6. Avoid pressure on the mattress for 4 - 5 hours.
7. Remove air bubble out of the mattress.
