FAQ ABOUT ALTERNATING AIR PRESSURE MATRESS PAD KITS
What’s included—do I need to buy anything else?
No extras needed. Each kit comes with everything to set up an alternating pressure mattress topper system:
- Alternating Pressure Pump with Quick-Release connector + Static Mode
- Alternating Pressure Pad (choose Flocking or PVC)
- Flexible air hose
- Easy-to-read manual
What’s the difference between the Flocking pad and the PVC pad?
Both provide alternating + static pressure support—the difference is the surface feel and use-case:
- Flocking (Flock-Tech) pad: designed to help manage heat and humidity for a cooler, drier sleeping surface
- PVC pad: waterproof and designed for easy cleanup, especially helpful if accidents/body fluids are a concern
How do I know if a patient needs an alternating pressure mattress pad?
If someone is in bed for long stretches (for example, 15+ hours/day) or is at risk for pressure ulcers / bedsores, an alternating pressure system can help by shifting pressure automatically instead of relying only on frequent manual repositioning.
How does alternating pressure mode work?
In Alternating Pressure Mode (the default), the pad cycles air between two main air chambers about every 6 minutes, shifting weight distribution while being designed to avoid “intense movement” the user can feel.
What is Static Mode—and when should I use it?
Static Mode fully inflates all chambers evenly to create a more stable surface—useful for resting, meal time, or when the patient needs a break from alternating cycles. It can take up to ~6 minutes to activate depending on the current cycle and pressure setting.
What’s the weight capacity?
The Lunderg alternating pressure pad kits are listed with a 300 lb weight capacity.
Can I use it on a hospital bed or on top of a regular home mattress?
Yes. It’s designed to be used on hospital beds or over your home mattress, making it a practical option for home care, hospitals, and nursing homes.
How long does setup take? How do I set it up the first time?
Setup is straightforward:
- Unroll the pad and lay it flat (air connection points at the foot or head)
- Connect hoses to the pad valves and the pump
- Plug in and set the pump to “Firm” to fully inflate Full inflation takes about 20 minutes (~3 cycles). Then adjust pressure for comfort.
Does it work outside North America (110V)? Can I use it with 220V?
The pump is designed for North America 110V only. It may be possible to use a voltage converter in 220V countries, but pump malfunctions related to converter use aren’t covered.
How long can the pump stay plugged in?
It’s designed for continuous operation, so it can remain plugged in 24/7.
Is there a warranty or satisfaction guarantee?
We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee and 24/7 customer service for support.
