a second air system configured for conditioning air at the first layer of the mattress above the first air chamber; and
a controller having one or more processors and a computer-readable storage medium coupled to the one or more processors having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
detecting presence of the user on the mattress;
determining an expected temperature offset relating to user presence;
generating a signal based at least on the expected temperature offset relating to the user presence,
when the user is not detected on the mattress, operating the second air system in a first mode to control temperature at the top of the mattress; and
when the user is detected on the mattress, operating the second air system in a second mode to control temperature at the top of the mattress based on the expected temperature offset and the signal, wherein the second mode differs from the first mode based at least in part on the second mode being adjusted according to the expected temperature offset relating to user presence.
