Stay Cool with a Memory Foam Mattress

staying cool with a memory foam mattress

Memory foam mattresses have been known to make sleeper hot. But with the right foam mattress, you will stay cool all summer long!

As yet another warm day threatens the East Coast, people everywhere are searching for that cool relief. But for many people, one of the hottest parts of the day is during the middle of the night. Sleepers everywhere have longed for a mattress that will keep them cool during the night while giving them a comfortable sleep. To answer the call, many mattress companies have come up with some memory foam mattress options to keep you cool. Let’s take a look at how you can stay cool with a memory foam mattress.

Choosing the Right Composition

Memory foam mattresses are made of polyurethane. But this material can vary based on the manufacturer. Many types of polyurethane are composed of petroleum, plants, or a gel-infusion. Petroleum-based memory foam has a tight cell structure, which has been known to impede the air flow through the mattress. The gel-infused memory foam could keep you cooler because the gel will take on the temperature in the room. The plant-based memory foam is made from a portion of petroleum with botanically-sourced oil.  This type of foam is usually temperature neutral and has proven more effective and dissipating heat. The first step to staying cool with a memory foam mattress is choosing the right composition.

Density

The density of your new memory foam mattress is the weight of one cubic foot of foam. The ideal range is between 3.5 and 5.0 pounds per cubic foot. The density of the mattress affects its contouring ability as well as the ability to dissipate your body heat. The middle range of density provides the best support, durability, and coolness. Lower density foams tend to have a cooler feel but may lack support and start showing wear earlier than denser mattresses.

 

Overall, warmer sleepers should look for a memory foam mattress with lower or a middle density and either plant-based or gel-infused memory foam. For more information on choosing your perfect memory foam mattress, call All American Mattress today!
