A powered air mattress and its control unit. Air flows through twenty cells and under the therapy pad to carry moisture away from the skin, and a pulsate mode varies the pressure every 30 seconds. It carries 500 lbs.
What stands out
The DermaFloat LAL is a low air loss system, which means the control unit keeps air moving through the mattress and under the therapy pad the whole time. That airflow, more than 100 liters a minute, carries moisture away from the skin, and that is the reason a clinician asks for low air loss for a person whose skin stays damp from perspiration, incontinence or a draining wound. The mattress is twenty air cells, 8" deep, over a 2" safety layer that stays inflated for up to 12 hours if the power fails or the bed is moved. The control unit has three modes. Therapy holds the pressure at one of eight comfort settings, Pulsate lowers and raises the pressure in all the cells every 30 seconds, and Autofirm fills the mattress hard for transfers and care. Joerns lists it for pressure injuries from Stage 1 through Stage 4 and for people at risk from immobility. It is 10" deep, which is 4" more than a foam mattress, so the rails must be tall enough above it, and the inflatable CairRails bolsters along each side are there to mark the edge. Buy this when a clinician has asked for low air loss. The surface for an existing wound is their decision.
Straight talk
Is it right for you?
A good fit if you
- have been asked by a clinician for a low air loss surface
- need moisture kept away from the skin
- weigh up to 500 lbs.
- need a 42" width
Look elsewhere if you
- weigh more than 500 lbs.
- want a mattress with nothing to plug in, where the Joerns P.R.O. Matt Plus fits
- have an unstable spinal fracture
- have rails that are low above the deck, because this mattress is 10" deep

The Joerns DermaFloat LAL Low Air Loss Mattress System is covered by Joerns Healthcare's own limited warranty. The coverage we have on record is below.
The owner's manual is the full warranty
The owner's manual for this product has its own warranty section, and that section is the complete statement of what Joerns Healthcare covers, for how long, and what falls outside the coverage. Read it before you file a claim. If anything on this page differs from the manual, go by the manual.
Owner's manualThis product cannot be returned
Mattresses cannot be returned. A mattress goes straight onto a bed somebody sleeps in, so once it has left us we cannot put it back into stock. If it arrives damaged or is not what you ordered, tell us within 48 hours and we will put it right at no cost to you, and the manufacturer warranty still applies.
If something goes wrong
Call us first at 1-855-HIELINE. We file the claim with Joerns Healthcare for you and get the covered part sorted out rather than handing you a phone number.
