With the arrival of cold winter, electric heater, electric blanket, air conditioner and electric water heater, as the four essential items in winter, have come to play a functional role. However, if these electrical appliances are not used properly, they may cause various dangers. The following small series will introduce the precautions for the use of electric heaters, electric blankets, air conditioners, electric water heaters, etc. Let's learn about it.

1, the correct way to turn on the electric heater

The electric heater should be used at least 1 meters away from the human body, and the TV cabinet should not be too close. When it is turned on, it can't be turned on to the maximum gear (the highest temperature) at once, and the instantaneous strong current is easy to cause the machine to burn and even the gun to go off. At the same time, the electric heater belongs to the high attack rate electrical appliance, and it should not be used with other tools such as electric appliances and electric drills. If the electric heater is to be equipped in the bathroom, the drill of the electric heater should be outside the bathroom.

tip: is it a clever trick to hang clothes on the electric heater?

no, no, no, this is a particularly dangerous thing. When the electric heater is in operation, the surface temperature of the machine body is relatively high, and the machine body should not be covered with articles (even wires should not be too close), especially quilts, clothes, etc., which will make the heat of the electric heater body unable to radiate and cause fire hazards.

2, the correct way to open the electric blanket

It is suggested that the electric blanket should be laid flat on the wooden bed, not folded, and should not be used with warm babies, hot water bottles and other items. It is best to lay a blanket or thin cotton mattress on the top and bottom to prevent the electric heating wire from bending and rubbing back and forth; You can't heat the electric blanket all night. It is recommended to turn on the electric blanket before going to bed and turn off the power supply of the product when the bed is warm. If your electric blanket has been used for more than five years, it is recommended that you replace it with a new one.

tip: can you be infertile with an electric blanket?

When the electric blanket is turned on, there is a very low electromagnetic field, which does have a bad effect on women's endocrine, and because the heat generated for a long time will also be bad for the vitality of male sperm, it may indeed lead to infertility of men and women. The key lies in the control of temperature and use time; In addition, the elderly and children, high blood pressure, stomach bleeding and other patients are best not to use electric blankets.

3, the correct way to turn on the warm air conditioner

In southern cities, air conditioners are the most common and feasible for heating, so they must be thoroughly cleaned before use, so as not to affect the heating and heat dissipation effect; Don't close the doors and windows when using. Open some seams between the doors and windows every 3 to 4 hours to ventilate the air conditioner, and it is best to use them together with a humidifier to avoid bacteria breeding and catching a cold.

tip: air conditioning in the south and heating in the north?

one of the problems of air conditioning heating is that it is very difficult to start when it is below -5℃, so this is also the reason why air conditioning heating is rare in the north. When the weather is really too low, the heating capacity of air conditioning is slightly insufficient.

4, the correct way to open the Yuba

The correct way to install the Yuba should be to install the Yuba in the center of the top of the bathroom, or slightly close to the bathtub, and it is not recommended to put it on the side of the body, and it is best not to be too low from the top of the head (above 41 cm), so as to ensure that it will not burn the skin, and it will play its role safely and maximally.

tip: yuba is waterproof, so it is not afraid of water splashing?

although yuba is waterproof, you must never splash yuba with water, because the metal in its body is still conductive, and if you splash it with water, it will also cause dangers such as short circuit of power supply.

Editor's comment: When purchasing heating appliances, we should not blindly pursue low price and high power, and we should not easily believe the so-called "curative effect" propaganda to avoid the possibility of radiation and side effects; In addition to the correct use of major and bulky heating appliances, we should also pay attention to several small details of electricity consumption in winter: do not switch on and off frequently, avoid excessive indoor temperature difference, and keep appliances away from heat sources and tuyeres.
