(54) MAINTAINING INFLATABLE PRODUCT PRESSURE


(57) A method of maintaining the internal pressure of an inflatable product (11) utilises control apparatus (10). An air flow generator (12), operated by a motor (13), supplies a flow of air internally to a connected inflatable product (11). A sensor arrangement (18,19) monitors the internal pressure of the connected inflatable product (11) and a motor controller (21) adjusts the speed of the motor (13) depending upon the monitored pressure.
