Bed Question

luvmy2gals · 09-07-2004, 03:19 PM

Hey all - I am new here so if this has been covered, sorry! I have a friend who is T-2 paraplegic. He has a special air mattress on his bed - we took the cover off today to make sure all of the tubes were connected b/c he was having back pain. I hope someone knows the kind of bed I'm talking about - you unzip the cover and there are individual air chambers the length of the bed.

Anyway, the bed makes this horrible high-pitched noise and has ever since he got it. Since the 2 tubes had come apart, we didn't notice it but now that it's all connected back together, the noise immediately started again.

It's driving him crazy and I would love to know if anyone else has had this happen and what on earth you can do about it. Thanks

Sounds like a faulty bladder problem. It should
be under warrenty.
