Comfortably warm waterbed with pressure-free support

This comfortably warm waterbed provides optimal support without pressure points. It fully adapts to the body, creating a relaxing and soothing experience for users of all ages.

Placement and use

The waterbed can be placed on a platform or built into a bed frame or box. However, we always recommend using the waterbed in combination with a platform. You can easily find the platform in our product configurator by clicking ‘Add to cart’. A platform offers several advantages: the waterbed is more stable; the bed cools down more slowly; it is more practical to use and maintain; it prevents the bed from resting directly on the floor.

Determine the final location of the waterbed beforehand.
Once filled with water, it can no longer be moved.

Comfort and finishing

The bed is surrounded by soft, narrow 7 cm foam edges that provide stability and comfort. It is enclosed in a strong, hygienic, washable bisonyl cover with zipper, available in the color of your choice. Note: Nenko supplies the cover with the zipper on the inside to prevent damage.

Placing the cover:
Turn the cover inside out.
Carefully unfold the seams in the corners.
Place the cover on the platform and ensure it aligns neatly with the edges.

Heating and installation

The waterbed features a 220-volt ceramic heating system that is completely safe to use (TÜV certified). An installation kit is included (see the manual for further information). Note: installation is not included.

Stability and load capacity

This model has an un-stabilized water chamber, making the bed more wavy. This makes it less suitable for sleeping every night, but ideal for relaxation, snoezelen, therapy or sensory experience. Our waterbeds do not have an official maximum weight. Tests show that a water mattress would only burst under extreme load (approx. 19 tons). This is not a guarantee, but shows that a user weight of, for example, 150 kilos is no problem at all. For heavier users, we recommend a stabilized waterbed to reduce sinking.

Suitable for interaction

This waterbed can be used with massage and music systems and is fully compatible with various multisensory applications. The heating element has a power of 240 W.

Cleaning and maintenance

Like any product containing water, a waterbed requires regular maintenance. A maintenance kit (60011955) is available. This kit contains:
a conditioner that keeps the water fresh;
a cleaner that keeps the vinyl of the water chamber supple. Use the kit once a year to maintain the lifespan and quality of the waterbed. Regular maintenance prevents odors, vinyl drying and potential damage.

Cleaning the bisonyl cover
The bisonyl cover is strong and washable, but must be cleaned properly:
How to clean bisonyl safely:
Use a soft brush to remove dust and dirt.
Clean with a mild detergent, such as Lux soap flakes in lukewarm water, applied with a sponge or damp cloth.
Disinfection can be done with a very weak solution of Milton fluid.
Use only a small amount of water and always dry the PVC thoroughly after cleaning.
Do not use abrasive sponges.
Avoid boiling water, aggressive cleaners, dish soap and solvents, as these may damage the coating.
Steam cleaning is not recommended.

For more stubborn dirt, we recommend our bisonyl cleaners, specially suited for professional use.

FAQs Waterbed 160 x 200 x 21 cm

We often see wide foam edges around waterbeds. How much lying surface water do your waterbeds have?

Our waterbeds are softside. This means that they have a special system of foam edges, so that a water bed of 100 x 200 cm also has as good as 100 x 200 cm water surface! The comfort waterbeds have an extra foam edge next to the normal foam edges in the cover, so you can sit next to a client for example.

What is the difference between a stabilized and an unstabilized waterbed?

An unstabilized water bag contains only water, no obstacles for reduced wave effect. As a result, when you sit on it, the bed shakes quite a bit due to the water that is moved within the water bag without hindrance. In a stabilized waterbed, there is a cushioning layer, so that the water cannot move completely freely through the water bag. This way the biggest wave will be absorbed. The higher the stabilization, the less movement of water.

How warm does a waterbed get?

This depends on how high the thermostat is set, which is supplied with the heating element of the waterbed. The element can heat up to 40 degrees. Whether this temperature is reached depends of course on how cold or warm the ambient temperature of the room is.

Does a waterbed need maintenance?

Like any product with water, a waterbed also needs maintenance. A maintenance kit (60011955) for this is available. This consists of waterbed conditioner which keeps the water fresh and a vinylcleaner which keeps the plastic of the water bag flexible and smooth. Use this once a year to maintain your waterbed. This also makes it unnecessary to replace the water in the waterbed.

Can I put an extra fabric cover around the waterbed?

Yes you can. That makes the lying comfort even higher, because the bisonyl cover is very easy to clean, but does not feel very soft. Bisonyl does take over the heat from the environment, so it feels comfortable in that sense when the waterbed is warm. The dimensions are the same as normal mattresses (100, 140, 160 and 180 cm wide) so a fitted sheet fits perfectly around this. These are not available at Nenko.

What if I don't want a lift recess in the platform?

A lift recess is standard in our shelves. When the waterbed is placed against a wall, you can easily turn the platform, so that the lift recess is against the wall and the closed side at the front.

What is the yearly power consumption of a waterbed heater?

The exact energy consumption of a waterbed heater depends on several factors, such as room temperature, bed insulation, and the surrounding environment. Therefore, we cannot provide an exact annual figure.

For reference, here is the average daily consumption at different room temperatures:
At 19°C (cold season): approx. 2.1 kWh/day
At 21°C (average temperature): approx. 1.5 kWh/day
At 23°C (warm season): approx. 0.9 kWh/day

Do you always need a professional installation for a waterbed?

No, certainly not. If you are a bit handy yourself, you can certainly install the waterbed with platform yourself. There is a manual for the bed and there is also an installation video available, so you can easily install the bed yourself.

Why is the cover with the zipper on the inside delivered this way?

Nenko delivers the cover like this to prevent unnecessary damage.

Turn the cover inside out and ensure that the seams are well unfolded in the corners. Place the cover in such a way that it aligns nicely with the sides of the already placed plateau (optional).

What is the added value of a musical waterbed compared to an ordinary waterbed?

With a musical waterbed, the bass of the music can be felt through the water. This allows you to enjoy the music tactile, which is very pleasant for, for example, deaf or hearing-impaired clients or people who are very tactile. The vibrations also give an extra secure feeling.

What is the difference between a waterbed with a stabilizer and a comfort waterbed?

The difference between a comfort waterbed and a standard waterbed lies in the support. Our comfort waterbeds are equipped with an additional foam edge, in addition to the standard foam edges in the cover. This extra foam edge provides improved stability and support, making it possible, for example, to sit comfortably next to a client.

How can I clean the waterbed?

All bisonyl products can be cleaned with warm water and a mild soap (such as Andy or Ajax, etc.). Do not use aggressive cleaning products. Bisonyl cleaner is also available for more difficult stains.

Can I move a waterbed?

No, this is certainly not possible! A single waterbed soon contains 400 liters of water, which is roughly equivalent to 400 kg. this cannot be moved without completely draining the waterbed. Please note that this must be done carefully, because it can easily cause damage, especially with an aged waterbed. Only move a stabilized waterbed straight and flat over the entire length (do not roll, fold, etc.). So think carefully in advance where you want to place the waterbed.

Is it necessary to order a base or platform with a waterbed?

We always recommend ordering a platform. Without a platform, the waterbed will lie directly on the ground, which can be less practical and cause the bed to cool down more quickly.

Is a waterbed suitable for heavier individuals?

Yes, a waterbed is certainly suitable for heavier individuals. We recommend choosing a waterbed with a stabiliser, as it provides additional support. Suitable models are available under the item numbers: 12402002, 12404002 and 21250002.

Can I sleep on your waterbeds?

Snoozing or having a nap is of course no problem on our waterbeds, that is a joy experience, but these waterbeds are not made for regular sleeping. You should then have more stabilization in the bed (at least 90%).
