These air overlays remain static, with air channelled via pathways which help the air to circulate and to disperse heat and moisture.
The air-filled cells increase the surface area over which the pressure is distributed.
Air mattresses require regular maintenance to ensure the correct degree of inflation is maintained.
It should be remembered that air is unlikely to form a stable base and users may therefore need to reconsider their method of transfer.
