We all know how wonderful an electric blanket can be – offering comfort and a suiting relief during cold winter nights. However, electric blankets get dirty and occasionally need to be washed, but most people are skeptical about doing this. Cleaning your electric blanket is not rocket science, and you don’t require an expensive trip to the dry cleaner to get it done. All you need is to adhere to instructions and do the right things without damaging insulation, wiring and heating elements of the blanket.
Whether you’re expecting guests and you want everything to look clean, or you want to avoid the musty smell from the blanket, you need to follow the procedure below.
The guys were super nice, I loved that they did the work immediately. Also after having a discussion with them about the static electricity from a lightenimg strike we had and it fried everything they suggested a surge protector to keep that from happening again. So we did that.
Scheduled an appointment with Mr Electric of Fort Worth and received a call they were able to show up early and had Dylan show up on time stocked with a full truck. He was able to diagnosis the issue quickly and restore my power to a few plugs that were causing the breakers to trip continuously. Dylan was very knowledgable, clearly explained the cause and how he would fix the issue, and addressed all concerns that we had. He was replaced two breakers and installed 2 new outlets along with diagnosing the problem in about an hour. Very quick and so far seems to have resolved our electrical issue. Would definitely recommend Mr Electric of Fort Worth!
Dylan was so nice and always on time. Very qualified and explained everything he needed to do in a way I understood. My older house required an outside panel so I had a lot of work but Dylan and his helper worked together very well and finished on time so I was not out of power more than needed. Everything looked and worked great when done. I don't know how he was able to replace the cracked power pole and wiring on my roof so quickly and beautifully. I am very, very impressed with his skill level and would request him for any future work. The company is very well organized and office contact was a pleasure to work with(which is rare since these positions are usually underpaid)so reward her well, she is the "door" to your organization. She and Dylan sealed my deal!
Cody was professional, knowledgeable, and was able to provide me with a quick diagnosis pertaining to a wiring issue in one of my rooms. He gave me the price for the repair/modification and fixed the issue all in less than an hour. Thanks Cody!
How to Wash Your Electric Blanket with A Washing Machine
Using a machine to get the electric blanket clean is highly recommended because harsh twisting or agitation can damage it. Follow these steps to wash the blanket so it will always be in good working condition.
The first step is to unplug the blanket and spread it on the floor to check if wires are poking through the material or any area with damage. Remember, the blanket need very short wash circle so you could use a link roller to remove pet hair and also dislodge as much debris as possible.

Second Step
You need to loosen stains before the wash circle. Activate the pre-soak setting on your machine and soak the electric blanket along with a mild detergent for 5 to 10 minutes. Let the machine run for some minutes to remove all dirt from your electric blanket. You should be careful about the delicate wires and inner components of the blanket; hence, you should be strict about the timing.
Step Three
It is best to allow the blanket to air dry. Try as much as you can to reduce the rinse/spin circles for drying. Please note, before returning the electric blanket to the bed for use, make sure it is completely dry.
Hand Washing Option
If you do not have a large capacity machine and the size of your electric blanket is massive, then you need to consider hand washing the blanket or taking it to a Laundromat.
For hand washing, you need mild laundry detergent and access to a bathtub.
Before soaking the blanket in the tub, ensure that you have removed the control box and cord from the blanket. Fill the tub with water and add the mild laundry detergent. Completely submerge the blanket in the bathtub for 10 to 15 minutes.
Agitate the blanket to remove all the dirt and use the shower for rinsing. After which, you should carefully squeeze to remove water and soap. You can hand the blanket over a shower curtain rod to adequately dry.
