From what I've read Porsche doesn't force air out of the seat onto the occupant but instead pulls air through the seat in the reverse direction. Is this the case as far as you know? How quickly do you feel the system working on a warm day? Is there an off/on switch like heated seats?
It's interesting that some manufacturers force air from the seat onto the occupant (even air conditioned air) and Porsche does it the opposite way. A friend had an Infiniti with cooled seats and I'm still not sure how they worked. No air, but they cooled with some sort of element embedded in the seats.
Thanks,

Feels to me like the cold air is blown up thru the tiny holes in the seats. The buttons (one for each seat) are next to the heated seat buttons. The cool button lights are blue and the warm button lights are amber. You can have both heat and cool on at the same time at any level.
It starts to work in less than half a minute. Very quiet.
A really nice feature about the heat & cool seats is each person can individualize their comfort regardless almost of where the central thermostat is set. Say the thermostat is set at 70F. You want it warmer. Turn on your heated seat. You wife wants it cooler. She turns on her cooled seat.
Modern Pcar technology is truly amazing.
