TRUCK-BEDZ Air Mattress FAQs
What if I can't find a Truck-bedz air mattress
for my model
pickup truck?
Let us know your pick up truck cargo area
dimensions and we'll help you determine which
model truck bed air mattress will best fit your particular vehicle. There
should be a model to fit almost any truck.
Why are there two different Truck-bedz
mattress types?
Truck-bedz Expedition Series are the
original version and are made from extra heavy
duty 420d nylon backpack fabric bonded with a
super strong polyurethane coating and then RF
welded into shape. You may see in more photos, an F250 truck sitting on top of a couple of
Expedition Series Truck-bedz mattresses-very stout
and puncture resistant. The
Truck-bedz Weekender Series are made from
heavy duty PVC flocked vinyl with the same great
features as the original Truck-bedz, but
offered more economically for those campers on
a tighter budget.
Do you make Truck-bedz for SUV's, Van's or
other vehicles?
Yes, we now offer our Expedition Series Truck-bedz
in a size that fits many
SUV's,
Vans, And Minivans.
Please provide us with the dimensions of your
vehicle and we will make sure that a truck bed air mattress will work
for you.
What is the best way to inflate my Truck-bedz?
Our Truck-bedz air mattresses come with two dual stage heavy
duty boat valves to assist with inflation and
deflation. The easiest method to inflate your
Truck-bedz is to open the outer valve cap (the
square one) and insert the appropriate nozzle
fully into the opening. Turn on the pump. The
Truck-bedz will begin inflating immediately and
should be full within 3-5 minutes.
The fastest method to inflate
your Truck-bedz is to open the larger lower valve (the
round one) and insert the largest nozzle straight
into the Truck-bedz. This will fill the bed in
less than one minute, however, once the air pump
nozzle is removed, some air will leak out. You
will have to close the round valve cap and
open the square cap (it has a one way valve) to top
off any lost air.
What is the best way to empty and roll my
Truck-bedz air mattress so that it fits into the carry bag?
Open both of the round valves completely and let the
air flow out. Once most of the air is out, fold
the truck bed air mattress over in 6" sections starting at the
end away from the valves. Continue to roll the
folded portions over until you have a large
roll. Close one of the valves completely and
fold 1/3 of the roll over on itself, squeezing
out more air in the process. Fold the remaining
1/3 of the roll over on itself, squeezing out
the remaining air and then close the second
valve.
Why is my Truck-bedz mattress softer in the
morning?
It's called physics, hot air expands and cold
air compresses. When you fill your Truck-bedz in
mid afternoon and it's 75 degrees and then wake up
and it's only 35 degrees, you should expect that
the bed will be much softer despite no air having leaked
out. The best course of action is to top off
the mattress right before bedtime. Sometimes topping
off will require a
few seconds with the pump and other times, just a
quick couple of breathes through the one way
valve will do the trick.
Do I need to do anything special to care for
my Truck-bedz air mattress?
No special care is required, however, we
recommend storing your Truck-bedz mattress in our heavy
duty wedge carry bag. If the mattress gets too dirty,
you can hose it down and scrub it with a mild
detergent. Make sure that it is completely dry before
rolling it up again.
What should I do if I have a problem with my
Truck-bedz?
Contact us and explain your concern and we will
make every effort to resolve your issue and assure
your satisfaction.
Should we use our Truck-bedz as a trampoline?
What about as an open ocean floating swim
platform? Can I use it as a dirigible if I fill it
with Helium?
No and No and certainly Not. Truck-bedz are
intended to be used as an indoor/outdoor sleeping
platform and they are not intended to be used for
the other purposes. Use of Truck-bedz mattresses for purposes
other than sleeping will void your warranty.
