Waterbed Heaters are Always installed on deck boards first.

Lay heater pad on decking - avoid seams between decking boards

Install Outer Safety Liner on top of heater and deck boards.


If you purchased an optional protective cover, it would be installed after the Outer Safety Liner and heater. The traditional Outer Safety Liner protects the outside of the protective cover and adds an additional layer of safety.

Be sure that the manufacturers label on the protective cover is at the foot of the bed. Unfold the protective cover and lay it out similar to the way the safety liner was laid out. 		{Cover being installed pic} 
Unzip the protective cover and lay it over the head of the bed, or remove on models with removable top.

This allows easy access for installing the waterbed mattress(s). Smooth out the inside of the protective cover.

Unfold and unroll the mattress into the cavity of the protective cover. Be sure the fill valve is located at the foot of the bed.

Pull the corners of the mattress into each corner. Smooth the mattress out as much as possible before filling. If this is not done properly it will be difficult to straighten when full of water.

Make sure the outer safety liner, cover sides do not fall down while filling.

You may have to work the mattress a little at the start to be sure it is correctly positioned as you fill the mattress.

Pull the fill tube up by the two handles on the cap and unscrew it. Remove the stopper. Handles are fragile, do not use one handle.

Attach the fill attachment to the hose and screw it into the mattress. Fill with warm water until the mattress is approximately 50% filled.

Roll on the mattress from headboard to footboard several times, this works any air bubbles to the top near the fill tube.

Add conditioner.

Continue filling until level with frame

Burp mattress again, reinstall stopper and cap. Push down into mattress.
