QUESTIONS ABOUT THE gel bed - FAQ
What are the advantages of the gel bed?
Basically - as far as comfort and health - the gel bed offers the same advantages as the water bed. The additional benefits are essentially the following: No heating, no electricity, no leaks, no shifting of the stabilizers, no air bubble noise, lower moisture and stabilization within 0 to 100%.
Health and gel bed ...
... are so close, but unfortunately most people know this until later. We spend asleep is known about a third of our lives. It is therefore essential that we do this on a pad, which ensures optimum relaxation and a deep sleep in order to thereby generate new forces. "Plagued by back problems," who does not know this common disease? To resolve such complaints, or to linderen least, an appropriate sleeping pad is necessary. The natural element of water that makes up the bulk of our gel-gel bed to 99%, offers almost ideal conditions in order for both optimal recovery during sleep, how to use it for therapeutic purposes.
Lying on gel ...
... the effect that you can enjoy night after night, a nearly "weightless" and healthy sleep. This is because the gel mass - whether supine, prone or side position - adapts perfectly to the body and it takes place a minimum, uniform pressure distribution over the entire surface of the body. Thanks to the optimal support they felt no pressure points, an absolutely perfect condition, in order to recover in an anatomically correct position, especially what our performance and satisfaction is particularly beneficial. The proven result is that you are - in contrast to conventional sleeping mats - up to two-thirds used less often, ie of the usual 60-80 shifts to around 20 - 25 per night. Also, you fall asleep more quickly and clearly has a longer, more intense deep sleep. The uniform pressure distribution is also a good blood circulation and relieve the spine, and a rapid regeneration of the whole organism result. The numbness of the limbs is as much a thing of the past, such as muscle cramps. Pregnant women it is even possible to birth lying on your stomach.
Since viscous gel is regulated by thin-to, comfort can be a specific set of physical uniqueness of each individual, such as body shape, weight or deck will need consideration.
Hygiene
Nightwear and bed linen to be washed regularly, but the mattress is really only for fresh acquisition. After six years as 1000 liters of condensation are moved through the bed (Source: Dr. U. Brackmann Hofer). Hardly a bed facility offers so many advantages, such as the hygienic gel bed. The mattresses - Fixüberzug can be removed easily as well as clean and the gel mattress can be washed well. It can not penetrate skin particles, body secretions or dirt, or mite feces into the mattress. The body moisture is carried away by the heat rising up.
THE ESSENTIAL FEATURES - Fast Facts
- No heating required.
- In the event of a leak not a leak.
- Gel density of thin to thick set.
- No stabilizers are needed.
- No air bubbles - noise.
- Minimum humidity.
- Easy and risk free installation.
- Optimum hygiene and low maintenance.
THE ESSENTIAL FEATURES - Detailed Description
No heating necessary
One of the safety tray fixed, three-dimensional fabrics - knitted fabrics, forms between gel mattress and mattress fabric - Fixüberzug, a distance of about 7 mm over the entire deck surface. Spacer Fabrics This is characterized by its high air permeability and resilience, and flexibility. In this intermediate situation creates a pleasant, dry microclimate, created by their own body temperature. In addition, gel sluggish and thus has the property that the heat on its surface, or gel mattress store. These properties mean that the simply smart ® - must not be heated gel bed, and you umhegt shortly after going to bed, by a body's temperature is pleasant. This fact is both ecologically and economically counter-minded people. It is also known to be unthinkable for many, having to sleep on electricity, as is the case when water bed.
People who want to hole up in principle in a preheated bed can create a commercially available hot water bottle into the gel bed. This way, the bed has to warm, on the one hand the benefits that heat the hot water bottle, as opposed to the water bed heater constantly large amount of water must be switched on just before bedtime. On the other hand, the temperature of the bed warmer is much faster and can be regulated individually. That this type of heating a bed, consumes less power, is understandable.
In the event of a leak not a leak
Since gel is viscous, it may leak in case of any leakage of the gel mattress only under pressure, and if anything, only very slowly. This gel will be deposited locally and cause no major cleaning efforts. It can be - if not already dried up - with a spatula, or other absorbent and residues can be well dried. It is advisable to throw in the usual care control a look at the net cover.
Gel density of thin to thick adjustable
The gel density can be of thin to thick set individually, so of free-flow, which means 0% to 100% stabilized. So you have the possibility to set the stabilization independently and according to their own needs. When a new waterbed mattress must be bought if a certain time after not fit the chosen stabilization. In the gel bed, the density changed later, or at best be refilled.
No stabilizers are necessary
The empty gel mattress can be folded up is easy and takes up little space. It is called Free Flow - mattresses, because they do not need a mat, fiber mats, or chambers. Water mattresses inside so-called stabilizers that are used to calm the wave motion. These are some complicated structures, as well as non-woven carrier with spacers that are slipped easily if handled incorrectly, and often can not be brought to its original condition. This usually happens when the water bed is out of place because of change of residence must, and can at worst lead to a replacement. The stabilizers make the mattress very bulky and it was once filled, it is because of the residual water pretty hard.
No air bubbles - Noise
Fresh water is known to contain oxygen. This collects in a mattress to air bubbles, which causes unpleasant noise when turning. Consequently, the water bed, this air must be evacuated from time to time. Since the gel mass of the gel bed is made of water, also held here, the same process. However, because gel is so slow, this glupschenden noises are not heard, and if anything, the air must be evacuated very rare.
Minimum humidity
Where heat is generated which does not correspond to the ambient temperature is expected to moisture. If a heated water bed is not enough water is formed between mattress and body moisture that can damage your health. Textiles, such as the mattress material, can also be damaged. Since the gel bed must not be heated and the temperature corresponding to the gel mattress of the ambient temperature, it will hardly come to moisture. In addition, the mattress is not material to the gel mattress, but on the best-ventilated air network (spacer) that can be formed in this critical area of moisture.
Easy and risk free installation
The simplicity of the SIMPLY SMART ® - system makes installation of the gel bed for almost everyone easily. The dealer will do it quickly and skillfully, and in case of any problems immediately to the place to be. Who is the self-assembly expects, can save shipping and installation costs. In the age of hobbyists, we consider it a necessary prerequisite to offer this alternative to the customer, because we know more and make more use of it.
Optimal hygiene of maintenance
Who hygiene is important, which is simply the smart ® - gel bed - have the pleasure system. Because it includes an easy-to-replace mattress fabric - Fixüberzug, as well as an easy-to-clean mattresses - system, where there are no unwanted "pets" can hide. In an era of ever-growing allergy problem here does not come into play. We recommend that you clean the vinyl surface, wherever possible, with water and rub the polish about twice per year, which extends the life of the mattress for years.
Why does not require heating the gel bed?
Water is a very lively matter, gel, however, is very slow. When water is heated with a radiant heating system, this heat is rapidly distributed throughout the water mattress. Gel is heated, the heat builds mainly on the question gel surface, where the heating occurs because the expansion in the slow-Gel mattress is going on very slowly. Moreover, these heat during SIMPLY SMART ® gel bed in about 7 mm thick three-dimensional spacer fabric or air-conditioning network is stored, which lies as a cover sheet on the surface of the gel mattress. This spacer creates a microclimate, which was produced by the body's temperature. This personal warmth is within a short time after going to bed and felt no need to heat the gel.
If someone wants to find a warm bed at bedtime already - as is the case when water bed - which can gel bed at a bed warmer on the mattresses - Fixüberzug place, which automatically about 15 minutes before bedtime or is manually turned on. The advantage of this application is that the power consumption is lower by a multiple is because the enormous amount of water can not be kept constant at a uniform temperature must. Bed warmers are available in various designs for little money in the electrical shop and have long been used in conventional beds.
Because until now it was not possible to solve the problem of moisture between the gel mattress and support surface in the best and affordable way. Lie on gel is not a new invention, because it has long decubitus - applied patients. So wherever possible, pressure-free beds available for a long time must be, that is in hospital or nursing home. Thanks to the development of three-dimensional spacer fabric, which the SIMPLY SMART ® - system serves as a cover, it is possible to produce yellow tablets that are affordable, which is no longer any reason to withhold this unique sleep on the home use. Thus, from now everyone can afford a gel bed, which was until now reserved only for persons who were dependent for health reasons in the best possible resting pad.
Basically, like how the water bed (See paragraph "Lying on gel" on page 3). It is probably the most perfect water bed - are compared - called FreeFlow. Why this is so, and what other benefits which are also still the gel bed, under paragraph "What are the advantages of the gel bed" further above.
the gel bed loses at restoring force?
No, the gel material never loses its restoring force. The gel bed offers the unique advantage over conventional beds that its restoring force even after years of exactly the same as on the first day - so to speak, a bed for life.
Is it possible to change the hardness of the gel?
No, just like water, the actual hardness of the gel can not be changed. A difference in gel volume changes - as with the water bed - just the sensation of lying. Gel can probably be changed in the density, ie you can change it thin to thick. Therefore, only the stabilization or movement period, the gel mass and does not affect the lying hardness.
Can I mount the gel bed independently?
Yes, because it is designed very simple and can be set up easily even by an untrained or Hobby-yourselfers. The delivery at any unattached installation guide is written easy to understand. The construction is completed in a relatively short time, with most of the vast amount of time is caused by the fill with water. The disassembly as well as the dissolution of the gel mass is as easily and quickly done.
Gel generate ...
... is very simple, if clean water is used and the SIMPLY SMART ® - Vinyl mattress is manufactured. Depending on water quality and quantity of an appropriate dose is required gel powder, per 100 liters of water about 300 - is 500 grams and is scattered in front of the water in the vinyl mattress. The exact amount is determined per mattress in place and with reference to a liter of water. After the filling of gel powder and water, the gel mattress only kneaded well.
Dissolve gel
In order to distribute gel from a mattress, it must be liquefied. The non-toxic solution can safely be fed to the wastewater. This is only 200 grams per 100 liters of gel takes cooking or road salt and dissolved in 4 liters of water. These salt water - solution is well mixed with the gel, which it dissolves after a short time and can be removed via a tube.
Does the gel bed suit in a bed frame?
Of course, and if you want to load them into your existing bed frame, mattress and bed base must be removed. In the frame inner side, usually four X-beam can be placed as the weight distribution corresponding to that height, where the slat is supported. On the weight distribution are wood panels laid out and built up the gel bed, the bed frame which has no structural function anymore.
How "hard" is SIMPLY SMART ® - gel bed?
The weight of a SIMPLY SMART ® - double bed of size 200 x 160 or 180 cm is about 660 kilograms. The international construction standards are scheduled so that every living space - even if the house is so old yet - can easily carry a gel bed of that weight.
The life of a SIMPLY SMART ® - gel bed depends primarily on its maintenance. The more the better, but at least according to our recommendation. The initial restoring force is never lose the gel bed. If the recommended care and complied with the mattress fabric - and cover protected with a Mollton will be assumed by a 10 to 15-year lifetime. As it were a sleeping pad for life, and consequently much longer than that of a conventional mattress.
The gel mass need not be always and if necessary, can be exchanged individual components.
Can the gel mass run out?
No, because one hand is simply the smart ® - gel bed constructed so that in case of a leak, leaving the remaining gel mass in the basin would be security. On the other hand, gel is viscous, so it only under pressure, and if anything, can run out very slowly. This gel mass will be deposited locally and in the interior of the gel bed and cause any major cleaning effort. It can be - if not already dried up - with a spatula, or similar record and residues can be well dried.
Can I repair a leak by myself?
Yes, and with the repair material to each gel bed is included. The process for sealing the leak is like riding a bicycle - hose, but the exact description in the installation guide can be seen (included).
How can a gel bed be damaged?
Pointed and sharp objects can damage the gel mattress. Therefore, they are in the assembly, cleaning and clearing to keep away. Jewelry and Clock should also be set aside.
What are the disadvantages of the gel bed?
That it is relatively difficult and a possible change of residence, the clearing and re-installing longer to take than any other sleep system. A dual - gel bed can be set up by a trained person in less than 120 minutes and if you do it yourself, it will be around 180 minutes.
For people who frequently change apartments, it is certainly a disadvantage because every time a new gel powder must be purchased.

Water, from which the gel mass to 99%, there is a neutral matter. The static water or gel mass in the gel bed has nothing to do with running water, a water vein. It has been confirmed by experts, that the rest mass of gel, the negative effects of a neutralizing water vein.
Why is the gel bed is so unique?
Because it is the only sleep system in addition to the water bed, which is based on the principle of displacement, and therefore provides the greatest possible bearing surface for a sleeping pad. If foam is used in combination with a mattress or box spring, or other systems with thin and thick conditions, or what kind of material always used as a base, their behavior is such that they produce a mechanical counter-pressure to the body. The same goes for air bed. The proof is that if you even with the valve open onto the gel bed is not the gel mass flows out, not so with the air bed.
Why is sleeping on the gel is so beneficial?
Suppose you are on a very well padded but narrow board. Her whole body weight is supported only by thus this small contact area, which creates an enormous pressure on the corresponding body area.
If the body is supported as a large scale - this is particularly the case in the gel bed - to the contact pressure is distributed over a larger area so less selective pressure is generated. This is the reason why you are in the gel bed up to 2/3 times less often used than other sleep systems. And because this is a proven fact that sleeping on gel provides the advantage that you fall asleep faster and recover more quickly.

When the sleep is recommended especially for gel?
Since the gel bed to the body adapts very well, providing optimal support in any position, the gel bed is always recommended. Its advantages make it particularly recommended for busy people and athletes looking for an optimal recovery in the shortest possible time. In the medical field, use the gel bed with back pain, pressure ulcers and insomnia, as well as to prevent common diseases or to relieve them.
Sleep soft or hard?
Lie or sleep is for rest. The body and especially the back can recover only if they are pressure-free as possible and therefore supported a large scale. The harder a deformable or compressible pad is, the more pressure (body weight) is necessary so that the body rests everywhere. If the surface is hard, builds up on primary resting body parts, such as Shoulder or buttocks, extreme pressure and the spine is, if anything, slightly supported. This simple logic proves unequivocally that are soft is the right thing.
It is a non-standardized measure with which the duration of the wave motion is defined in water beds. This caused after boarding or turning on a water bed wave motion is slowed down as quickly as possible, must be woven or chambers built into the water mattress. The more chambers or nonwoven fabric, the higher the stabilization, which may be up to 100%, where "lie on water," then the effect be felt nothing more. This is because the mattress is too cluttered and fillers, such as conventional foam mattresses by the body weight has to be compressed.
The great advantage of the gel mattress is that thanks to the adjustable density of the gel mass, a stabilization can be set from 0 to 100% and no fillers are required for this. It can thus be achieved with a single mattress embodiment, each desired stabilization.

What is the minimum necessary care?
The surface of the gel mattress should - which is always a point - at least twice a year with lukewarm water and then with a vinyl - are rubbed care products. The application of the conditioning agent prolongs the life of the gel mattress by years. The mattress fabric - Fixüberzug, as well as the air power - can cover up to 60 ° C are washed.
When does the gel mass to be replaced?
Basically, never, unless the gel bed is not placed at a different location must. The gel bed is too hard to bear it, or move, it must be emptied according to the transport.
Is there even in the gel bed glubschende Bubble noises?
Since fresh water, oxygen in the form of minute bubbles contains that accumulate with time in the water mattress to an air bubble can occur glubschende noises in the water bed. This process also takes place in the gel mattress, but can not develop this glubschende noise, because the gel mass is much too slow.
Children and gel bed
Prevention is better than cure is known. Consequently, it is very important that growing children are properly seated in the school, but can also relax in the correct sleeping position. To invest for the future of a child to pay off for sure. Hardly imagine what could have dire consequences later for insufficient sleep on!
Pets and gel bed
Whether dog, cat, bird or other pets, they also love comfort. If you do not want it withheld from them, then we have nothing against it. That they can damage a gel bed is highly unlikely. The claws of a cat penetrate very well into the mattress fabric, but in order to penetrate into the gel mattress, it needs a major selective pressure that can not provide a cat.
