Currently i own a nice bed frame that calls for a mattress and box spring.
Can i put an air mattress on a box spring.
Utilize a box spring a typical box spring set up.
Make certain your box spring is in excellent shape with no broken slats.
This is a safe and effective way for you to have your air mattress on top of your wooden bed frame.
Once you are done place the plywood on the bed frame and the mattress on the plywood surface.
I am getting conflicting points of view on the proper foundation for an air mattress.
The reason is because memory foam mattresses are heavy.
Since the mattress sits directly on the floor it will not be able to expel air and breath as easily as it could on a box spring or platform bed.
In addition the box spring you need to use should have the same size as the air mattress.
The box spring will also act as an insulator especially during chilly evenings to prevent heat from escaping.
The good news is you can definitely use your box spring under your memory foam mattress.
This could potentially lead to hotter sleep and even microbial growth especially if you live in a humid environment.
Either way choosing the right.
I have been told by the manufacture that i need as close to a flat surface as possible this signals some sort of wood slat or wire mesh system.
