Product description
This magnetic fireplace blanket from whumsdog helps reduce drafts and heat loss by sealing the fireplace opening when a fire is not burning. It combines a thick, fire-retardant Oxford fabric with internal foam padding to block cold air in winter and keep cooled air inside during summer, helping lower heating and cooling energy use according to the manufacturer.
Key Points
The cover attaches quickly to iron fireplace frames using built-in magnets so installation is tool-free and fast. The black finish blends with most fireplace surrounds, and the blanket folds for compact storage when not in use. Consider that magnets should not be exposed to very high temperatures for long periods, so use the blanket only after the fire is fully out.

Benefits
By creating a barrier across the opening, this fireplace draft stopper reduces unwanted smells and debris from entering the room. It also helps prevent heat transfer through the chimney, which can reduce energy consumption during cold months according to the manufacturer. During warm months the same barrier can help keep cooled air from escaping, which may lower air conditioning load.
Usage Recommendations
Wait until all embers are fully extinguished and the fireplace cools down before placing the magnetic blanket in position to avoid exposing magnets to high heat. Align the magnets with the iron frame or screen and press gently so the panel adheres evenly. Fold and store the blanket in a dry place when not in use to preserve the foam filling and fabric.
