Creating a Healthy
Sleep Environment

an estimated 50 million americans suffer
from allergies, and the bedroom presents some
especially difficult challenges. a few simple
steps you can take to create a healthy sleep
environment include:

• Use a dehumidifier to reduce any potential

mold or mildew growth. Keep humidity
levels under 60 percent.

• Use a high-quality mattress pad to protect

your mattress from moisture. you may want
to consider a waterproof mattress pad if
you perspire heavily while sleeping.

• Use allergen covers on pillows and

mattresses to reduce dust mites, which can
trigger allergies and asthma. Wash bedding
weekly in hot water.

• Vacuum the bedroom regularly, using a high

quality vacuum cleaner such as one with
a hePa filter, one that does deep cleaning,
or a central vacuum system.

• Wait 20-30 minutes before making your

bed each morning, turning the covers back
and allowing the mattress to air out for a bit.

• If possible, avoid placing your bed on an

outside wall or above an air conditioning
or heating vent, which can cause condensation
and increase the likelihood of mold growth in
many mattresses.

• You could also use a high-quality electronic

air purifier to remove additional airborne
particulates from the bedroom.

• Please note: Ozone generators ARE NOT

recommended for use in the same room
with the Sleep number

bed, as they can

degrade components of the bed over time.
