But with the following tips, you can increase the lifespan of your mattress and maintain good sleeping comfort for a long time:<\/p>\n<p>1. Fold back the duvet in the morning after getting up so that the mattress can <strong>deflate quickly.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2. Make sure that your mattress is <strong>regularly<\/strong> ventilated from below and above &#8211; preferably <strong>in the sun<\/strong>, as it kills germs &#8211; to prevent mould and mites from forming.<\/p>\n<p>3. It is best to turn your mattress every time you change your bed linen by <strong>swapping<\/strong> the <strong>head and foot ends.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>4. If you do not use a mattress with different sides, such as a summer or winter side, it is advisable to turn the mattress <strong>every two to three months<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>5. Nowadays you should avoid beating out the mattress, which was often done in the past. This is because beating out can damage the inside of many modern mattresses.<\/p>\n<p>6. Many mattresses also have a removable and washable <strong>cover<\/strong>. This applies to billerbeck mattresses, as you can see here with our COSICOMFORT (photo), for example. You can wash this cover at regular intervals about<strong> twice a year<\/strong> with our <a href=\"https:\/\/billerbeck.shop\/en\/eco-wash-egg\/12237.1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wash-Egg<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>7. The use of a <strong>mattress topper<\/strong> (also known as a mattress protector or topper) protects the mattress, increases lying comfort and offers a very hygienic standard. Our toppers can be machine washed with our Wash-Egg.<\/p>\n<p>8. On average, mattresses last around <strong>eight to ten years<\/strong> with good care. At the latest then you should buy a new mattress for hygienic reasons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It is often underestimated &#8211; mattress care!
