I just baked cookies on one for the first time and I think the cookies tasted a little off - does that taste go away with time the more you bake with them?
It is not drawing correctly. Damper could be stuck in partially closed position or chimney is clogged with something, Is there a chimney cap you forgot to remove? Try opening a window in the same room as the fireplace, if the smoke starts going up the chimney, the fireplace is not getting enough air.
My smoke detector is hardwired in my mobile home. No clue who makes it. I have a carbon monoxide detector by Kidde. It was the only brand I could find in my price range.
If you wear any sort of medicated patch like one of these: Orthoevra (birth control) Fentanyl (pain) Nicotine the excess heat changes the rate at which the medication is absorbed into the skin. Many people have died from wearing a duragesic patch like fentanyl and using an electric blanket. The people overdose on the medication during their sleep and die. Aside from that issue, I am not aware of any other complications from using a heating blanket aside from the fact that may be a fire hazard.
First off the body has its own built-in thermostat and an electric blanket, may, or may not, interfere with the body's normal functioning. Yet as the body also has it's own Electrical-Magnetic-Field it's possible that an electric blanket could interfere with normal body functions.
1. whats wrong with normal blankets? im sure your running up the electric bill. 2. and depending on how hot the blanket gets it can get bad for you. I know you can get bloody noses from it. sleep in 68-74 degrees.
