Washing Instructions
In between patient uses, the HoverMatt should be wiped down with a cleaning solution used by your hospital for medical equipment disinfection. A 10:1 bleach solution (10 parts water: one part bleach) or disinfectant wipes can also be used. It is important to follow the cleaning solution manufacturer’s instructions for use, including dwell time and saturation.
NOTE: Cleaning with a bleach solution may discolour fabric. If a reusable HoverMatt becomes badly soiled, it should be laundered in a washing machine with a 70° C maximum water temperature. A 10:1 bleach solution may be used (10 parts water: one part bleach) during the wash cycle. The HoverMatt should be air-dried if possible. Air drying can be expedited by using the air supply to circulate air through the inside of the HoverMatt. If using a dryer, the temperature setting should be set on the coolest setting. The drying temperature should never exceed 46° C). The backing of the nylon is polyurethane and will begin to deteriorate after repeated high-temperature drying. The Double-Coated HoverMatt should not be put in the dryer.
