How to Clean Your Tempur-Pedic Foam

Tempur-Pedic memory foam mattresses have been recommended for years to help relieve back pain and other problems. Like other items in your home, the Tempur-Pedic mattress does need to be cleaned. The mattress is high-density, and cleaning can be an issue. You can't just pour water onto it, because it will be very hard to dry. There is an alternative that is easy to do and will help keep your mattress protected and like new for years.
