Tips for use
To properly use thermosum, you need to familiarize yourself with the manufacturer's instruction. So, the peculiarities of using the product differ depending on the design features.
- Models without additional heating or cooling tools on average hold the temperature for 4 hours. At the same time, their functionality depends on the outdoor temperature. So, if there are 6 degrees of heat, drink inside the bag will lose 4.5 degrees every hour. However, at 24 degrees, heat loss slows down to 3.5 degrees per hour. Therefore, before going out to the street, it is worth calculating when the child will presumably want to eat, so that by this time the mixture is not too hot or cold.
- Models with cold battery help keep the drink in the cooled form, and with a heater - prevent the cooling of the mixture. Most of these devices operate on batteries. Therefore, the mother's task becomes a periodic check and replacing these elements. In addition, thermosums with cooling or heating function should not be able to open. Otherwise, the system will have to restore the microclimate more often, which will lead to additional energy consumption.
The obligatory point of care of the thermosum is maintained cleanliness. It includes regular washing of the inner and outer layers. Especially if the mixture was randomly shed. Timely care will help protect the product from unpleasant odors and the spread of pathogenic microorganisms.
Besides, The functionality of thermosums is reduced over time. Therefore, it is necessary to periodically check how well the product supports the desired temperature. If the model includes cameras for hot and cold, you need to make sure that they are well isolated from each other, and, if necessary, strengthen the protection of priest materials.
If the bag ceases to save the specified temperature, then it becomes dangerous to use and better try to purchase a new one.
The heatmoss is a useful acquisition that facilitates the care of a child on a walk or in a rustic trip. The functionality of the product is combined with ease of use and care. When choosing a model, you need to focus on your needs, defining the size, the number of departments, the type of handle and other accessories. It should not be overlooked from the type of compliance with safety standards, material quality and functional features.
