Call 866-218-0902 to speak with a mattress specialist.
The Protekt Aire 1500 Deluxe Adjustable Alternating Pressure Overlay is a powered pressure relief overlay designed to help reduce prolonged pressure on vulnerable areas for patients who spend extended time in bed. This system uses alternating pressure therapy to cyclically inflate and deflate air cells, helping support comfort and pressure redistribution.
Placed directly on top of an existing mattress, the overlay offers a practical solution for home care, long-term care, and recovery settings that need more active therapy than a basic foam or gel overlay can provide.
What is the Protekt Aire 1500 Alternating Pressure Overlay?
The Protekt Aire 1500 is a powered alternating pressure mattress overlay with an adjustable pump and bubble pad. It is designed to improve pressure redistribution, enhance comfort, and support the prevention and treatment of pressure injuries on top of an existing mattress.
Quick Summary
- Powered alternating pressure mattress overlay
- Manual air flow adjustment knob for personalized comfort
- 10-minute alternating cycle time
- Safety end flaps help secure overlay to mattress
- Lighted on/off switch and hanging bed hooks for convenience
Why Choose the Protekt Aire 1500?
This system is a strong option for users who need more active pressure relief than a non-powered overlay can provide. The alternating air cycle helps shift pressure points regularly, which can be especially helpful for patients at risk of skin breakdown.
The adjustable pump allows caregivers to fine-tune firmness based on user comfort and support needs. Because it is an overlay system, it can upgrade an existing mattress setup without the expense of moving to a full mattress replacement system.
Its medical-grade fire-retardant PVC construction, hanging bed hooks, and safety end flaps make it a practical choice for both home and facility care environments.
