Moving Your DualTemp™ Layer

Note: DualTemp™ is an optional temperature layer. Not every Sleep Number® bed has a DualTemp™ Layer.

 

Quick summary: Turn off and unplug the DualTemp™ Layer, remove bedding, disconnect the hoses and control unit, pack the remote, hoses, heating/cooling unit and cords safely, lift the layer off the mattress, then gently fold or roll it for transport. After moving, reconnect the system and test heating or cooling before putting bedding back on.

Step 4: Pack remote, hoses and heating/cooling source

Pack them in a box with packing material to minimize shock and vibration in transport.

Important: Make sure cords are not pulled, pinched or wrapped tightly.
