It is very easy. Simply remove the calibrator(s) from the bed that are in the zone that you would like to adjust. Take to the faucet and either fill or empty to the firmness level marked on the calibrator and place back into its zone.
It depends on how full you wish to fill the calibrator. On average a Queen calibrator will weigh about 6 lbs. when filled.
No. Your calibrators are manufactured with a biocide tablet which will keep your water clean. Your calibrator tube is sealed and never exposed to air, so there is no evaporation of the water.
No. The calibrator tubes are made from a very thick, durable specially formulated PVC material which is very difficult to puncture or break. The tubes are housed in channel vent foam chamber which surrounds and protects it from sharp objects.
Yes. Because the calibrator tubes are aligned horizontally in the channel vent chambers, the water in the calibrators will be held in place even when the head area or leg area are elevated. There is no metal in a hybrid softside waterbed so it is not damaged when articulating the power base.
Yes. We suggest removing the calibrator tubes from the mattress and marking each with your name and the zone number. The zone at the head of the mattress is zone 1 or Z1. The zone at the foot of the mattress is zone 7 or Z7. We do not suggest draining the calibrator tubes as you can place all 7 calibrators in one box which will weigh less than 50 lbs. and can be reasonably carried. The bed can be easily carried and moved without the calibrator tubes in the mattress.
No. the hybrid softside waterbed uses regular sheets and bedding and looks like an ordinary mattress.
