Comfort in bed isn’t just about temperature, it’s also about sweat. Humidity in the microclimate under your sheets can rise 20% from trapped body perspiration, a big factor in feeling hot and stuffy. Water loop systems like chiliPAD simply cannot dry sweat or pull trapped body moisture out of your bed — that would be beyond the laws of physics! In contrast, BedJet's silky quiet air circulating technology is clinically proven to rapidly pull body moisture out of the bed. BedJet even has a proprietary sweat-drying mode to keep you fresh, dry, and comfortable all night long. Watch the Sweat Test to see for yourself. (Sweat Test shows a generic cooling mattress and not the chiliPAD.)

We verified that the chiliPAD can provide mattress surface temperature control. But which product is more powerful and faster at cooling (heat removal) and warming? Take a look at the infrared camera drag race to see how much faster BedJet's air-based ultra-rapid cooling and warming is compared to the chiliPAD. The chiliPAD's water temperature adjustments can take up to 10 minutes to feel as it needs to get the water to your desired temperature, pipe it through the entire Pad system, and then adjust (or re-circulate) to take a sleeper's body heat into account. In contrast, BedJet's air-based cooling and warming is felt within seconds.

Leaky plumbing, leaky roofs, dripping faucets! Home owners know water can find ways to be in places you don’t want it. The chiliPAD water-based (hydronic) system circulates pressurized water into your bed. Undetected water leaks in your bedding have the potential to ruin your sleeping space. With BedJet's air-based climate control technology there's absolutely zero risk of water affecting your sleeping environment.

Like BedJet, the chiliPAD works with any mattress. But unlike BedJet, using a chiliPAD means altering the sleep surface performance of your mattress. Want to enjoy the body contouring support of your memory-foam mattress, the springiness of a Purple grid, or the softness of a pillowtop mattress? The chiliPAD adds a layer of pressurized water tubes between you and your mattress. Per Amazon reviews, some users report the pad's water tubes can be felt when slept upon, and you can see them snaked through the mattress pad in the infra-red photo. BedJet does not change the feel or performance of your mattress — no water tubes, wires, or other “layers” to sleep on top of. All cooling, warming, and sweat drying is done above and around you under the sheets. With BedJet, you get to keep the feel and comfort of the mattress you love.

The air-based BedJet is a nearly maintenance-free product. Simply remove the lifetime washable air filter and rinse clean in the sink once every three months. The chiliPAD water-based system requires a steady supply of distilled water to keep the reservoir full, on top of a recommended monthly cleaning. Per the manufacturer instructions, monthly cleaning involves emptying the existing water, refilling with a combination of distilled water and a proprietary solution of antimicrobial ingredients (sold separately on their website), running the unit for 6–8 hours, then emptying and filling it up again with more distilled water. Apart from the maintenance hassle, adhering to the chiliPAD manufacturer's recommended maintenance could cost nearly $100/year.
