Protect Your Farm Animals with a Heated PowerBlanket

June 17, 2009 00:06 AM  BY  JEN HALLAM

Heat, Sweet Heat for Home on the Range

The industrial strength and durability of a heated outdoor PowerBlanket make it an ideal choice for keeping farm animals warm during the winter months and cool of summer nights. The versatile PowerBlanket is an outdoor heating blanket used for many construction projects year round, particularly concrete curing. It is also used as a heating mat for pets; small barking ones or large mooing ones. The 2x2 heating mat was designed to withstand varying weights, contortions, and uses, and can even be driven on without damage. The heating mat is also designed for use in wet conditions, so outdoor use is never a concern. The PowerBlanket can be plugged into each other, using up to 20 heating blankets at one time for any size desired.

Keeping farm animals, especially injured ones, warm and comfortable during the cold is crucial to their well-being and oftentimes their survival. Sheep for example have excellent built in wool coats, until they are shorn and left less protected. If one wooly member of the flock falls ill or becomes injured, a heating mat designed especially for pets could be just what the doctor orders. PowerBlankets are strong enough to be stomped on and laid on so animals can do their worst and the heating blanket will continue providing warmth.

The only necessity to consider when using a heating mat for pets is the 120-outlet required to run them. The PowerBlanket will keep heat generating in conditions down to -40 degrees. Your farm and animals dwelling home on your range will appreciate the protection and comfort you provide when using a heating mat designed especially for them.

Engine Warmers

April 03, 2009 00:04 AM  BY  JEN HALLAM

Get Out on the Highway and Keep Your Motor Runnin’

There are parts of the world that see temperatures dip below zero, and those same parts of the world utilize vehicles, boats, planes and many other mechanical wonders housing engines. Those sturdy engines get cold, and starting them (or attempting to) in sub-zero temps is hard on the equipment. Utilizing an engine warmer has many advantages for both the equipment and the end user (the one trying to start that freezing engine).Engine warmers help to protect engines in extreme weather.

A weatherproof, outdoor heating blanket such as the PowerBlanket offers a simple solution with several advantages to this cold weather problem. Owning large equipment that requires engines to start and stop several times a day in unflattering climates can pose frustration to the driver, pilot, or operator, and result in lost productivity. If an engine won't start due to chilly weather and even chillier coolant, using an engine warmer (also known as a block heater) eliminates the hassle of waiting for the sun to shine or some other form of Lady Luck to come along and magically warm the engine. Engine warmers using the technology of the PowerBlanket need only an outlet to plug into and presto, your engine stays warm with minimal need for electricity. An engine warmer not only keeps your engine's fluids warm, but your engine as well, reducing wear and tear on the motor and ultimately prolonging the life of most engines.

Using a reliable PowerBlanket engine warmer is a great way to help the environment as well. Often the rapid heat produced by an engine warmer aids in the initial vaporization of fuel in the engine. This translates to reduced pollution, as poor fuel vaporization causes higher emissions.

Clearly an engine warmer can eliminate the hassles of stalled and frigid engines. Frustration and worry are something you can leave behind you as you make tracks on the highway and keep your motor running!

Prevent Materials from Freezing with a Barrel Warmer

April 01, 2009 00:04 AM  BY  JEN HALLAM

PowerBlanket Barrel Heaters Protect Materials

PowerBlanket barrel warmers are a great solution for contractors running into freezing problems during the winter months. For paint, tar, spec concrete, hydraulic fluid etc., to stay the correct consistency, it is important to keep your materials above freezing.

The barrel warmer is the perfect solution to cold or freezing temperatures. Sized for 55, 30, and 5 gallon buckets and barrels, there is a solution for every sized job. The built in thermostat is adjustable to accommodate the heat requirements of the barrel contents. The PowerBlanket comes ready to use and plugs directly into a 120V outlet. Up to four PowerBlanket barrel warmers can be plugged together.

When painting in cold weather, it is important to check the curing temperature of the paint. Most exterior latex paints cure at 50° F. At cold temperatures, paint that takes longer to cure has a higher likelihood of damage occurring to the soft film due to rain, snow and condensation. To prevent this, look for specialized paint such as Graham's Elite and Aqua Borne Ceramic™ Exterior products. These paints can cure at temperatures as low as 34° F and can be used in conjunction with PowerBlanket barrel warmers to complete winter jobs without damage to your workmanship.

Powerblankets Aid Construction

January 29, 2009 00:01 AM  BY  JEN HALLAM

Outdoor Construction Can Move Forward Even in Cold Weather

Major construction projects usually get a bad wrap for being over budget and pushing past deadlines with wild abandon. Cold weather is often a major culprit and cause for stress on large scale projects where penalties begin accruing when the agreed upon completion date comes and goes. Highway projects are especially at the mercy of weather as the cold makes curing concrete challenging. An electrically heated, insulated concrete curing blanket , such as the PowerBlanket is a valuable solution to common weather delays.

Concrete curing blankets are superior to expensive and awkward boiler systems frequently used on such projects. Concrete construction blankets eliminate the need for such bulky equipment. The PowerBlanket allows roadway construction companies to stay on schedule and meet code at the same time.

Using a concrete curing blankets is an important alternative for the environment as well. The boiler systems employed produce noxious fumes, discharge and open-flames. The use of a concrete curing blanket not only ensures optimum curing conditions for the concrete, but gives users the peace of mind that fumes are not part of the equation. The blankets require no flammable or toxic liquids, and eliminate the need for the large and costly equipment. Projects will still inevitably be late sometimes, but now cold weather will not be the major offending obstacle. Use the PowerBlanket and get the job done right and on time.
