Mattress Maintenance 101: Rotate, Flip & Clean for a Decade of Dreamy Sleep

Great sleep relies on more than choosing the right mattress—it takes proper upkeep. Follow this engineer-backed routine to keep your Spring Air bed supportive and hygienic throughout its full warranty period—and beyond.

Rotation Roadmap

Mattress Type Frequency Why
Single-sided (Copper, Back Supporter) Rotate every 3 months Even foam compression
Dual-sided (Four Seasons) Rotate + flip every 6 months Balance seasonal surfaces


Flipping the Four Seasons (Step-by-Step)

  1. Strip bedding; recruit a partner for safety.
  2. Rotate 180°.
  3. Lift from the long edge and flip—winter wool side up or summer cool side up.
  4. Realign on foundation; replace bedding.

Cleaning & Spot Care

  • Vacuum: Upholstery tool every 8 weeks.
  • Spot stains: 1:1 warm water + mild detergent; blot—don’t soak.
  • Odor neutralizer: Light sprinkle of baking soda; vacuum after 30 minutes.
  • Avoid: Harsh solvents or steam cleaners (they may void the warranty).
