Our manufacturers have been developing, producing and selling waterbed systems for many years. Waterbeds are made up of a frame and mattress. The frame surrounds the flexible mattress, supporting it and maintaining its shape, meaning you can use waterbeds on any bed.
A good night's sleep is important for wellbeing, and the comfort provided by a waterbed, is guaranteed to boost your energy!
With a waterbed, you float on a large individually temperature-controlled core of water, and your body is supported evenly. No other mattress system will adapt as perfectly to match different body shapes, and because of this, you lie in the bed, not on it. Water is displaced by body mass, and pressure points on the body are prevented, taking the load off your vascular system. The even support a waterbed gives you relaxes your muscles, helping you easily achieve the right conditions needed for a peaceful night’s sleep.
Comfort
Because waterbeds use the displacement of water to provide comfort and support, they conform better to your body than any other type of bed, promoting circulation, a natural body position and a good night’s sleep. The water volume inside the bed is infinitely adjustable, meaning that you can adjust the feel of your bed to suit your personal preferences.
Durability
Waterbeds, compared to innersprings, latex and other kinds of beds, use the displacement of water for comfort. It is not under pressure and the water cannot be worn out through use. That is why we say that waterbeds have “durable comfort”. Even 30 year old timber framed waterbeds are as comfortable now as the day they were bought.
Value
Waterbeds provide outstanding value compared to other types of bed. The level of comfort exceeds other sorts of mattresses, but the cost is comparable to basic innerspring beds. Not only are waterbeds good value to purchase, but their durable comfort and modular systems mean they can be maintained, ungraded and even repaired so your original investment gives many, many years of good sleep.
Will my ceiling be ruined if the waterbed leaks?
Waterbed mattresses are extremely tough, durable and puncture resistant unless they are deliberately targeted with a very sharp, or very pointed instrument. In the unlikely event this did happen, the water would be container within the bed by a separate outer water proof safety layer, preventing any damage to the bed’s surroundings.
Do I need my bedroom floor reinforced to take the weight?
No. Waterbeds have a specially designed base that spreads the weight of the bed evenly across the floor. The waterbed weighs no more than approximately six people. We have successfully installed thousands of waterbeds.
Will a waterbed make me nauseous?
No. the motion of a waterbed is very relaxing and after a little time of getting used to a new feeling, virtually everyone enjoys it. The motion is less than most people expect and we’ve never known anyone to feel nauseous as a result of their waterbed. Waterbed mattresses are available with no movement whatsoever.
Will it be good for my back?
Absolutely – eight hours of therapy every night.
Will they be cold?
All of our waterbeds are temperature controlled. In winter, you can keep them warm but in summer, on the few hot nights we get in the UK, the controller can be turned down to give you a cool bed. If you have dual mattresses they can be set at different temperatures if one partner prefers a hotter bed.
Does it cost a fortune to run?
No. The heater, as well as being waterproof, has a very low voltage and costs around 12p per day to run. If used at average temperatures the only other expense is a bottle of water conditioner which keeps the water in the bed fresh and is needed only once a year. You can purchase this and more from our shop. Waterbeds are extremely low maintenance solutions to the perfect nights sleep.
How long do they take to install?
About 90 minutes usually, but rarely more than three hours. All you have to do is show our installer where you want the bed, provide a plug point and a source of water and he’ll do everything else, including spending time advising you and answering any questions you may have.
How long does it take to get used to a waterbed?
It depends on the person, however on average, it takes one or two nights to really get used to the feeling of a waterbed. the therapeutic feeling of a waterbed has resulted in our customers never wanting an ordinary bed again.
I suffer with asthma. Will a waterbed help?
All waterbeds sold by us have removable washable top. underneath this is the water mattress, which can also be cleaned. A porous spring mattress, which is used in ordinary beds, is an ideal breeding space for dust mites which feed on hair and tiny flakes of skin. It is the dust mite excreta that most asthmatics are allergic to and replacing the spring mattress with a water mattress (which dust mites cannot breed in) provides relief to most people with breathing problems.
