More on Serta Arctic Features

A. Reactex System Cooling Foam

Serta's exclusive Reactex® System consists of three layers of cooling technology. Each cooling layer has more cooling capacity than the previous layer, so heat is pulled away from your body and deeper into the mattress. The result is a cooling mattress that provides comfortable sleep all night long.

1. Super cooling cover pulls heat away from your body and down into the next layer.

2. The cooling liner absorbs heat and pulls it down deeper into the mattress.

3. Finally, the specialty cooling memory foam has the greatest cooling capacity and pulls heat even further away from your body.
