What are the methods of using compression bags

Compression bags are also called vacuum compression bags. In fact, they are widely used around us, but the compression bags we usually see are the vacuum bags used in snacks we usually eat. It is rare to see people put their clothes and quilts in compression bags. In fact, clothes and quilts can be put into compression bags for storage, but the compression bags for clothes and quilts will be more strict during manufacturing, and the requirements will be higher.

1: First, prepare the quilt, duvet, and down jacket for compression, wash them, and fold them.

2: Put the quilt, duvet, down jacket and other items to be compressed into the vacuum compression bag.

3: Use the slide to seal the seal. Here you should pay attention to the fact that when using a hand pump, do not seal the entire seal first. Leave an opening first (or only seal half of the opening), and then try to squeeze out the air in the bag as much as possible. You can use hand pressure or sit on it (it will be much faster when you pump it out later, if you use a vacuum cleaner, it depends on your preference). After squeezing out the air, use the slide to slide back and forth a few more times to ensure that it is sealed tightly and there is no air leakage.

4: Remove the lid from the vacuum compression bag and put it away so as not to lose it.

5: Loosen the valve under the lid by 1-2 turns (loosening is to facilitate the air to come out, tighten it after pumping), but don't unscrew it (some friends said that they couldn't pump out air even after loosening it. At this time, you need to unscrew the valve to see if the air outlet is blocked). The red gasket inside is to prevent air leakage and to prevent air backflow when pumping air (do not remove it when pumping air with a hand pump).

6: Start working, aim the hand pump at the valve mouth, make sure the pump mouth is close to the valve mouth (the swing amplitude should not be too large when pumping air), and pump hard. It usually takes about 3-6 minutes. Some people say to vacuum a few times, but there is no response. The vacuum cleaner takes more than 20 seconds to finish the job. How many times you vacuum can outweigh the 20 seconds it takes a vacuum cleaner.

7: The effect came out after a few minutes. The bags were stuck to the quilt, duvet and down jacket inside, and were flattened.

If you want to put the quilt and your clothes into a compression bag, you should wash all your clothes first, and then fold them cleanly. Only then can you put them into the compression bag. If you are afraid that your clothes will be deformed due to squeezing, you can put the clothes in a packaging bag first. In this way, your clothes will be deformed.
