User Guide On How To Use The Heated Drum Blanket

The instructions in this guide include a number of rules on how to safely use your blanket, and how to extend its lifespan.

RULES FOR GENERAL USE:

  • Before turning on the power, make sure to fully unfold the blanket. In no circumstances can you use the cord as a handle – doing this can pose serious health risks.
  • You must never roll or fold the blanket over itself if the power is on. Avoid overlapping with other blankets as well. The way it works is simple – the heat spreads through radiation and conduction. If you roll a blanket over itself or stack it with another one, both surfaces will be next to each other and will begin producing excessive amounts of heat. There could be serious consequences such as burning or charring. If you want to roll the blanket, always turn the power off.
  • Before turning the blanket on, be sure to remove items which are bad heat conductors. Examples include rubber, wood, plastic, paper, and others.
  • Put the blanket around the drum when heating it up. The gray side is heated, and the yellow side is non-heated.
  • The designated voltage must be precisely applied. An example would be 110V to a 110-volt blanket.
  • Before starting, check if the extension cables have the appropriate size to manage the blankets’ amperage.
  • If you want to extend the life of your blanket, be sure to roll it or put is in a flat position when storing it. In no circumstances should you fold it because that can cause damage to the heating element.
  • Do not add any additional tarps on top of the heating blanket or it could overheat and pose a fire risk.
  • By letting the blanket work for longer periods of time, it will produce more heat and offer the best protection.

CORRECT USE AND GOOD STORAGE CONDITIONS CAN HELP IN EXTENDING THE LIFE OF THE BLANKET

The heated drum blanket is usually not hot to the touch. If you want to try it out, the most efficient way would be to check for continuity. If it works fine for long periods of time, everything is ok. The heated blanked works like a crock pot. If you want to remove the blanket, the heat could escape. You should note that the yellow side in non-heated and should face outward. The gray side is heated and would face the drum. The blanket will arrive with a 6-feet-long power cord. You will need to attach a plug. The socket plug is included and shipped loose.

Testimonials

"Ordered two custom covers from Alco for a pair of fire columns. Both are a perfect fit. I'm especially impressed by the quality of fabric and construction. They even have convenient tabs on the side that help with putting them on and taking them off. First class customer service too!" - George Pytlik

"I ordered a custom cover by providing a drawing and Alco provided an accurate, excellent cover. I was unsure of the unseen, (by me), HD material, but it turned out great. I was impressed enough to immediately order a second custom cover for another application. Custom covers fit, look, and perform so much better than generic covers. To me, Alco covers are worth their price and are a true value.." - Ron Fasola

"The cover fit perfectly and seems to be of good quality. Alcocovers did a fantastic job. I would certainly recommend using them for any of your cover needs.." - Charles Smith
