Frequently Asked Questions
Does an overlay replace a mattress?
No. An overlay is placed on top of an existing mattress to add pressure redistribution, and it works with the support of the mattress under it. A mattress that has bottomed out should be replaced rather than covered.
How thick is the overlay?
The thickness is part of each configuration's presentation, with convoluted profiles adding airflow at the surface. Choose the configuration whose stated build matches the care plan.
