• and
• a plurality of retaining members coupled to the top layer and the bottom layer, the plurality of retaining members being equally spaced from each other between the foot end and the head end of the bladder, the plurality of retaining members being equally spaced from each other between the pair of lateral sides of the bladder, the plurality of retaining members retaining a plurality of spaced portions of the top layer and the bottom layer together when the bladder is inflated, each retaining member of the plurality of retaining members comprising a tufted yarn;
• and
• a comforter contained in the interior space of the duvet cover, the comforter comprising a thermally insulating material, the comforter extending across the pair of bladders, the comforter being positioned adjacent to the top layers of the bladders, the comforter being removable from the interior space of the duvet cover;
• a pair of air treatment devices, each air treatment device of the pair of air treatment devices being in fluid communication with an associated bladder of the pair of bladders, each air treatment device of the pair of air treatment devices comprising:
• a blower in fluid communication with the associated bladder via the inlet of the associated bladder, the blower urging air to flow into the internal volume of the associated bladder when activated;
• a heating and cooling module in fluid communication with an intake of the blower, the heating and cooling module being configured to alternately heat and cool air adjacent to the intake of the blower, the heating and cooling module comprising a Peltier heat pump;
• a processor operatively coupled to the blower and the heating and cooling module;
• an input operatively coupled to the processor and mounted to the blower;
• an output temperature sensor operatively coupled to the processor and positioned adjacent to an outlet of the blower, the processor being configured to adjust operation of the blower and the heating and cooling module in response to output temperature data generated by the output temperature sensor;
• and
• a transceiver operatively coupled to the processor, the processor being configured to wirelessly communicate with a remote computing device via the transceiver;
• a pair of remote controllers, each remote controller of the pair of remote controllers being operatively coupled to the processor of an associated air treatment device of the pair of air treatment devices, each remote controller of the pair of remote controllers comprising:
• a housing, the housing being positionable in an associated pocket of the pair of pockets of the duvet cover;
• a remote processor mounted in the housing;
• a remote transceiver mounted in the housing and operatively coupled to the remote processor, the remote processor being in wireless communication with the processor of the associated air treatment device via the remote transceiver and the transceiver of the associated air treatment device;
• a remote input mounted on an exterior of the housing and operatively coupled to the remote processor, the remote input comprising:
• a temperature increase input, the associated air treatment device being configured to increase the temperature of the air flowing therefrom when the temperature increase input is actuated;
• and
• a temperature decrease input, the associated air treatment device being configured to decrease the temperature of the air flowing therefrom when the temperature decrease input is actuated;
• and
• a feedback assembly mounted on the exterior of the housing and operatively coupled to the remote processor, the feedback assembly comprising:
• a temperature increase light emitter configured to emit blue light when the temperature increase input is actuated, the temperature increase light emitter being configured to emit light which is visible through the associated pocket of the duvet cover;
• and
• a temperature decrease light emitter configured to emit red light when the temperature decrease input is actuated, the temperature increase light emitter being configured to emit light which is visible through the associated pocket of the duvet cover;
• and
• a pair of body temperature sensors, each body temperature sensor of the pair of body temperature sensors being operatively coupled to the processor of an associated air treatment device of the pair of air treatment devices, each body temperature sensor being configured to detect a body temperature of an associated occupant of the pair of occupants, the processor of the associated air treatment device being configured to adjust operation of the blower and the heating and cooling module in response to body temperature data generated by each body temperature sensor of the pair of body temperature sensors.
