A foam mattress stays static when they need air cells that change with body weight. The Drive Balanced Aire BA9600-P 36-inch Air/Foam Mattress is Drive's 36 by 80 by 7-inch powered convertible surface. Eight non-circular cells self-adjust, then a 4 LPM pump adds a 5 minute cycle. It is this 36-inch SKU, not the 42-inch listing.
The cells recognize load and adjust. Add the included pump and the surface becomes a 4 LPM alternating-pressure system.
A high-density foam perimeter supports transfers. A heel slope moves load off the heels.
The old hospital mattress comes off the deck. This is not Med-Aire 14001E.
This page is BA9600-P. BA9600-P-42, BA9600-P-48, and BA9600-P-54 are separate listings.
This BA9600-P is for someone who needs a 36-inch air/foam replacement at or under 500-lb and wants a convertible pump. It is a weaker fit if the deck is 42-inch or wider, or if they only need five-zone foam.
Width is the first decision. This BA9600-P is the 36-inch powered Balanced Aire. BA9600-P-42 is the 42-inch sibling. Med-Aire Plus 14029 is an 8-inch low-air-loss replacement with a digital compressor, not self-adjusting foam cells.
