It might not be easily reachable? Some people put the wire inside the drywall for aesthetic reasons for stuff that you rarely unplug, like a TV. A matress can fall in that category.
- throitallaway 1y agoHighly doubtful that someone would do that, but OK: turn off the breaker then.
- smileysteve 1y agoThat's terrifying when a heated mattress is resistive heating and can cause a fire.
- bluGill 1y agoPeople do that perhaps - but it isn't allowed by any code I'm aware of - at least not by default. wires in walls have strict standards that mattress manufactures would't want to meet.
- troyvit 1y agoSounds like if you make your bed you might as well lie in it then eh?
- cthalupa 1y agoPower goes to an external pod that has the water reservoir, pump, heating/cooling elements, etc. It has to be user accessible to refill water, it needs space for airflow, and has to be next to the bed because the mattress water/data/power lines run to it on a limited length umbilical. It uses a standard IEC C13/C14 power cord. There's no sane configuration where it would be anything more than trivially easy to unplug the power. But you'll get more retweets and social media engagement if you just stew yourself in your smart device hell and let everyone else know how its going.
