Heating zones

The number of heating zones provided in the device. A heating zone is an area of the heater that can be turned on and off separately from other areas (and on some models even power can be adjusted for each zone separately). The number of such zones is indicated in cases where there are more than one ; such a design is relevant only for electric sheets and electric blankets (see "Type") — other types of heaters are not so large that it makes sense to divide them into zones.

The presence of several areas gives additional options for controlling the heater and allows you to more accurately adjust it to the current situation. For example, some people only get cold feet in bed, and only the lower part of the electric sheet is enough to warm up — there is no need to spend energy on the entire area of the heater. As for the specific quantity, most often in "multi-zone" models there are two heating areas — this is quite enough for most cases. Only some double sheets/blankets may have 4 zones — 2 for each sleeper.

Power levels

The number of power levels (adjustments) provided in the device.

The more levels provided in the design (with the same maximum power) — the more precisely you can adjust the heating to your preferences. On the other hand, the abundance of adjustments affects the complexity and price of the device, despite the fact that there is not always a need for this. So, for electric sheets (see "Type"), 2 – 3 modes are quite enough — intensive for preheating and one, less often two workers. On the other hand, the opposite situation occurs — 6 or even more power levels.

Display

The presence of a display on the heater.

The display is located on the control panel and is usually a simple LCD screen with 2 to 3 icons. However, even such a screen provides additional convenience, it can display various information about the operation: power level, timer settings, activated heating zones (if there are several), warnings about malfunctions, etc. Note that the presence of a display is a sign an advanced heating pad with extensive capabilities — it does not make sense to use this function in simple models.

Operating time

The operating time is the time until the device auto-shutdown. Therefore the time during which a sheet or blanket works on heating. There are models with an adjustable shutdown timer, which allows you to set the required time for the device to automatically turn off.

Power consumption

Rated power consumed by the heater during operation.

Technically, other things being equal, a more powerful device will heat up faster and heat more greatly, but its energy consumption will also be higher. However, in fact, this parameter is of secondary importance: manufacturers select power in such a way as to provide the heating pad with the necessary performance. So paying attention to power makes sense mainly when comparing and only in cases where the differences are significant — for example, if one model consumes 100 W, and another of similar size only 60 W.
