can i put a mattress protector on top of my electric blanket and is it safe?
I'm really cold at night now, so I bought an electric blanket. I don't like feeling the wires underneath the top sheet. I want to know, can I put my mattress protector/overlay on top? Its one of those plush quilted-type fitted mattress protectors. If i put this on top it removes the feeling of the wires however I want to know, is it safe to do so???
(I'd only be using the blanket to preheat my bed before i go to sleep, and occasionally in the night if i get too cold i'd use it for 10-15mins to heat the bed up again)
Yes, it is perfectly okay to put a mattress protector over the electric blanket.
I have just bought a woollen magnetic underlay and that sits over my electric blanket too.
You won't have any problems. Remember though that it will take longer to feel the heat if you have the protector over the top.
Add: electric blankets are much safer than they used to be now and I doubt that you can start a fire. I wouldn't leave the blanket on all day though so do remember to turn it off once you have finished using it. If your electric blanket is very old then get rid of it and get a new one.
