The Ultimate Cooling Sleep Setup: How to Stay Cool and Comfortable All Night

The Ultimate Cooling Sleep Setup: How to Stay Cool and Comfortable All Night

Why Cooling Matters for Sleep

If you've ever spent a fitful night tossing and turning, you are not alone: 57% of Americans report at least occasional sleeping too hot and 46% of hot sleepers report poor quality of sleep. The ideal temperature for sleep is between 60 and 67 degrees; standard bedding can, however, trap heat, create perspiration, and prevent the body from reaching the deep, restorative stages of sleep.

At BedderMattress, it is our aim to assist you in sleeping faster, longer, and more soundly. State-of-the-art cooling is personalized to optimize the balance between individual comfort and temperature sensory feedback with advanced cooling and heating technology and moisture-wicking materials, phase change materials for temperature regulation, and breathable airflow systems, so that we keep you as cool as needed even on the hottest nights.

In this guide, you'll discover why thermoregulation is the secret to better sleep, the science behind end-to-end thermoregulation solutions, and how our Bedder Mattress Protector – Instant Cooling, Cooling Gel Pillow, and Cooling Gel Topper outperform products from more established brands: IKEA's ROSENVIAL mattress protector, KVARNVEN ergonomic pillow, and GRÄSROTSFLY duvet insert.


Why Overheating Disrupts Sleep

When you sleep, the body's internal temperature decreases naturally. Thermoregulation helps the brain move into the deep sleep stages. But hot bedding is trapped within the body itself, turning it hotter, waking up at night as if prohibiting deep sleep and curling around that place.

Studies show that improving temperature control can lead to:

  • Up to 25% more deep sleep
  • Up to 44% less time to fall asleep
  • Up to 45% reduction in snoring
  • Up to 23% fewer night wake-ups

An ideal sleep climate easily promotes healthy sleep patterns - proving to be a better recoverer indicated by heart rate variability - as well as an almost buoyant morning.


The Benefits of Cooling Bedding Technology

Cooling bedding actually makes you feel good but has positive effects on your sleep health. Specific benefits are:

·       Speed in Sleep Onset: Right cooling materials accelerate the setting of such participants.

·       Increased Deep Sleep: Keeping a regulating sleeping temperature has advantages for longer durations of restorative sleep.

·       Moisture-Wicking & Breathable: High-tech fibers pull heat and sweat away from the skin.

·       Dual-Zone Comfort: Intelligent adjustable bases are some systems by which personalized cooling can be perfectly created on each side of the bed-the ideal for couples.

·       Pressure Relief: A cooling gel-infused foam combines the benefits of cooling with support in the hips, shoulders, and back.

These products are all-season comfortable bedding but have been designed to thermal regulation and excellent support throughout the year.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How to keep cool when sleeping?

 

For keeping the cool factor while sleeping, it is best to choose moisture-wicking and temperature-regulating bedding that allows airflow. Such products include the Bedder Mattress Protector – Instant Cooling – Instant Cooling phase change materials and breathable open-cell fabrics designed to absorb excess heat, thus keeping you at the perfect sleeping temperature of 60°F–67°F, and is best used together with a cooling gel pillow and ventilated mattress topper for 25% more deep sleep and fewer night wake-ups.


2. Do cooling bed toppers actually work?

Yes. High-quality cooling bed toppers such as the Bedder Cooling Gel Topper use gel-infused memory foam with pin-core ventilation to draw heat away from your body while relieving pressure on your hips and shoulders. This minimizes tossing and turning, helps you fall asleep in as little as 44% of the time it otherwise would take, and keeps your skin cool and comfortable during the night.


3. What is the coolest thing to sleep on?

The coolest sleep surfaces are those with combinations of dual-zone temperature control, end-to-end thermoregulation, and moisture-wicking natural fibers. For example, cooling mattress protectors layered with a bamboo-covered gel topper and a cool-to-the-touch ergonomic pillow are the perfect combination for an all-regime comfort bedding setup that leaves cotton sheets in the dust.


4. How to sleep cool with no AC?

Without AC, you can still create a cooler sleep environment by:

·        Using moisture-wicking bedding like cotton or bamboo.

·        Taking a lukewarm shower before bed to lower your core body temperature.

·        Placing a fan to create cross-ventilation in your room.

·        Sleeping in a starfish position or in the nude to reduce heat retention.

·        Adding a cooling gel topper or cool-to-the-touch pillow for localized temperature control.


5. What is the Egyptian sleeping method?

The Egyptian method involves soaking a light sheet or blanket in cool water and wringing it out before using it as a cover for sleep. This works great from extremely hot climates but now has alternatives like the Bedder Mattress Protector – Instant Cooling or a phase change cooling topper, which feels cool without the wetness and is more useful in staying comfy all night long.
