How can I get my bed warmer? Electric blanket?
My house uses an electric heat pump as the source of heat. I freeze every night. The thermostat is on 70 but it makes no diff. I have a tempurpedic mattress and this thing is like a cold slab of quicksand. I wear two pairs of socks and my feet still freeze. Sometimes I wear a hat to bed.
What are my options for heating the bed and/or myself when I go to sleep.
Electric blanket - what kind is best?
Are there non-electrical heating pads of some sort out there?
Thanks
You can use an electric blanket to get the bed warm, then shut it off. I can't recommend any certain brands, but most are about the same. Some come with different controls and they jack the price up. Just get a good name and you should be all set. I sleep with my window wide open and the heat off in my room during the winter. I grew up in the 40's and we only had heat in the kitchen during the night. I found that a wool blanket and a down cover is all I need. Two thin blankets are better than one thick one. It's the air that is trapped that insulates. I have two pillows so if my head gets cold I put a pillow over my head. I have grown up this way for over 60 years and the cold hasn't killed me. I let my body do the work and after a few minutes it warms up and I am asleep. I spent a full year in the Arctic (-55F.below) and at survivor training they told us to put as man y bodies in the same bed to survive. I didn't luck out as my bunk mate was brunette and had a large beard and snored like hell. What I wouldn't have done for the smell of a blonde perfumed lassie.
