<p>The modular heated cover (700) is disclosed with a first pliable outer layer (806) and a second pliable outer layer (806), wherein the outer layers provide durable protection in an outdoor environment, an electrical heating element (702) between the first and the second outer layers, the electrical heating element (702) configured to convert electrical energy to heat energy, and a thermal insulation layer (804) positioned above the active electrical heating element. Beneficially, such a device (700) provides radiant heat, weather isolation, temperature insulation, and solar heat absorption efficiently and cost effectively. The modular heated cover (700) quickly and efficiently removes ice, snow, and frost from surfaces, and penetrates soil and other material to thaw the material to a suitable depth. A plurality of modular heated covers (700) can be connected on a single 120 Volt circuit or on a single 240 Volt circuit protected by a 20 Amp breaker.</p> |
