  • Written on March 16, 2024 by Evan V.

  • Have you ever had that moment when you're finally on vacation 🏖️, but you forgot your pump 💨 or it broke between two heavenly places 😫? Or maybe you're reading this on your deflated mattress, or rather on the floor ... Don't be afraid 😌! In this guide, I'll provide you with tips 💡so you don't find yourself in these situations again. Better yet , I'll present you with a solution so this never happens to you again ‼️

  • First solution: you still have your pump

  • How to inflate it?

  • Properly inflating your mattress is crucial for a good night's sleep ✅. Improper inflation can cause discomfort or back pain ❌.

    If you have a gauge pump, aim for a pressure of 0.3 to 0.5 PSI . For self-inflating mattresses, let it inflate on its own for a few minutes before finishing by mouth .

  • ⚠️ Misconception "To make my mattress comfortable I have to inflate it as much as possible"

    False: Over-inflation is the number one cause of mattress wear. So save your breath and get a better night's sleep 😆

  • Alternative solutions to the pump

  • Garbage bag

    Lay out the mattress and open the valve to inflate. Open a trash bag , capture the air , and close it. Insert this valve into a hole in the bag , then lie on it to transfer the air . Repeat until the mattress is inflated.

  • hair dryer

    If necessary, create an adapter to connect the hair dryer to the mattress valve using a cone-shaped sheet of paper or similar. Use the cool shot setting to avoid damaging the mattress and let the hair dryer cool down if it starts to get hot.

  • Vacuum cleaner

    You can use a vacuum cleaner to inflate your air mattress. Attach the vacuum cleaner nozzle to the mattress valve , then turn the vacuum cleaner to blower mode . Make sure to seal the vacuum cleaner nozzle properly around the valve to prevent air leakage .
