Over the past few days, the northern and central provinces of our country have been experiencing the impact of a strong cold air mass. The average temperature has dropped below 20 degrees Celsius, with some areas even recording temperatures below 10 degrees Celsius.
During the cold days, many families have had to use additional methods to keep their homes warm, especially those with young children and elderly individuals. These methods include using space heaters such as heaters, fans, two-way air conditioning heating mode, bathroom heaters, toilet heaters, or electric blankets for the bedroom area.
However, for the bedroom area, a recent article from Aboluowang has revealed another method to keep it warm without the need for electrical devices.

Keeping the bedroom warm with a hairdryer
This method of keeping the bedroom warm is easily done with a familiar item found in many households – a hairdryer. And it only takes about 2 – 3 minutes.
The Aboluowang article explains that during winter, after a few hours without anyone using the bed or blanket, they quickly become cold. Therefore, warming them up is necessary to avoid the “thermal shock” feeling.
The specific steps to warm the bed and blankets with a hairdryer are as follows:
– First, turn on the hairdryer, select the hot or warm mode, then start lifting the blanket and blowing warm air from the hairdryer underneath.
– Users should not continuously blow the hairdryer on a particular spot on the blanket. Instead, they should change the position flexibly, from the top to the middle and bottom of the blanket.
– Move the hairdryer around to evenly warm the blanket.

After just a few minutes, around 2-3 minutes, or longer if the blanket is larger, the bedroom area becomes significantly warmer. The ideal time to perform this warming method is before going to bed.
In addition to warming blankets and the bedroom area, this method can also be applied to clothes to increase their warmth.
Other methods to keep the bedroom warm
In addition to using a hairdryer, families can consider a few other methods to keep the bedroom warmer in winter, thereby better protecting human health.
1. Change the material of the blankets and beddings
In winter or during particularly cold days, bedsheet or blanket made of materials like cotton are not enough to keep the user warm. Experts suggest considering thicker materials such as wool, artificial fur, or velvet. The thickness and high fiber density of these materials will effectively retain warmth for the user.
When purchasing blankets or bedsheets, users can also look for the “Tog” rating. “Tog” is a unit of measure for the insulation ability of the blanket or bedsheet. Choosing a higher “Tog” rating means it will provide better heat insulation.

2. Place warm objects under the blanket
The next method is similar to using a hairdryer to blow warm air onto the blanket. It involves placing warm objects underneath the blanket, allowing the warmth to spread across the entire bed.
Two common objects that families often use are heating pads or tightly sealed hot water bottles. However, to ensure effective warmth, these objects should be placed under the blanket for a long period before going to bed, and 3-4 heating pads or hot water bottles should be used if the blanket is large.

3. Use electric blankets or mattress pads
The most modern method to quickly and effectively warm the bed is to use electric blankets or mattress pads. However, when purchasing these products, users should choose ones with clear origins and from reputable brands to avoid risks or accidents, especially with the electrical aspect.
