Heating at home and children
Winter is an especially complicated season for looking after the littlest ones in the home: cold, abrupt changes of temperature, rain, heating…
Not all heating methods are suitable for homes with children. From Midea, the no. 1 company in air treatment equipment manufacturing. We would like to highlight some points to be borne in mind when we have children at home:
- Some heaters can cause burns in children because, when they are placed on the floor in the home, infants can reach them easily and suffer these injuries
- Radiators located very close to the cot can produce excess heat while babies are asleep and this increases the risk of them catching cold or becoming dehydrated. Too much heat in the bedroom can also hinder or interrupt children’s sleep.
- We must bear in mind that if we use gas or paraffin heaters, the health of our children with respiratory and skin problems may be affected, so it is preferable to avoid using them.
- The ideal temperature at which the thermostat should be set at home is between 20 and 22 degrees, to avoid sudden changes in temperature when going outside. If the temperature difference is noticeable both outside the home and between one room and another, this can cause children to catch a cold. To avoid this, one needs to maintain an even temperature in the home.
- An excessive temperature of the heating can cause dry skin in children, as well as dry eyes and ocular irritation, so it is essential to set the thermostat to the suggested levels.
If you want forget about these problems, choose Midea Kid Star, air conditioning with a heat pump designed for children’s rooms that can be used as heating in winter and has a higher energy efficiency than conventional air conditioning systems such as boilers, radiators , etc. When placed on the wall, the littlest ones cannot reach it, thus avoiding the risk of burns caused by other heating methods.
Kid Star models have the built-in Smart sensor, a sensor that detects children’s body temperature and can tell if they remove the covers while they are asleep, preventing the air from reaching them directly or at an unsuitable temperature. Midea Kid Star has A + energy certification in heat mode and A ++ in cold mode, which reduces consumption while you take care of your baby. In addition, this unit is available in two colours to choose from (pink and blue) to match your child’s room perfectly. This model from Midea has been conceived and designed especially for the room of the littlest ones in the household and stands out for its teddy bear-shaped wireless control handset, easy to use and designed to prevent the usual falls.
