Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.
We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!
we have an ac in the bedroom and as both of us like it very cool we keep the thing on pretty much constantly. but lately, even on the hottest days I notice the bed sheets feel clammy when I go to bed.
I have a latex topper on top of a good thick futon, with a thick wool topper just under the fitted sheet.
I've never experienced this before---could it be from the ac?
I thought ac pulled moisture from the air, so what gives?
Maybe it's pulling moisture from the latex, futon and wool which causes the bedding to feel clammy.
Our AC stays on pretty much 24/7 because we like it extremely cool (...our friends say "What do you do hang meat in here?")
Never have had what you describe. We use a cotton/polyester blend mattress cover, a featherbed topper, cotton blend sheets and a down filled comforter.

it's so strange, the wool and the latex are both supposed to be good temp regulators, I wonder if there is moisture coming from beneath the gooseneck where the bed is...
Latex in the bedroom..........Clammy bed sheets. Too much info. I don't think the problem is your A/C. Hahaha
OK get back on track. My wife put some kind of a plastic/vinyl material mattress topper and the sheet on top. I couldn't handle it, kept getting clammy and sweaty. I think she put a thicker blanket on top of the cover and then the sheet. Now no problems.
My solution is to use cotton bedding; mattress cover, topper and sheet sets. Also I use cotton quilts and no synthetic fibers in the bedroom. Only use cotton PJs also because it is comfortable next to you skin. Guess if I lived up north I might want some wool blankets. Just my 2 cents worth. Pat K

Someone at the rally mentioned to me putting a large rubber mat with ridges (like they use at a car repair place on the floor) under the mattress so it can breathe. No idea if this works or not but stuck in my head as something that sort of made sense. Anyone doing that
