The State Meteorological Agency has been announcing the arrival of the DANA storm for days, an episode of winter cold that will be accompanied by a drop in temperatures, widespread rainfall and snowfall at relatively low levels and in large areas of the Peninsula.
With the arrival of this polar cold, we must prepare properly. From thermal clothing, coats, snow boots to stoves to heat our house, duvets and chains to be able to circulate or deicers for the car windshield.
So that you are not caught off guard, at El Comprador de La Vanguardia we have prepared a list of 12 necessary products that, in addition, you can buy online so that you do not have to go out on the street at all.
If you live in a very cold area or want to go to the mountains for a few days, a coat, a hat and gloves will not be enough. When temperatures are so low we must resort to extra protection.
Thermal clothing, generally designed to be worn under clothing, is made with specific fabrics to ensure that we are comfortable, even in extreme conditions.
At El Comprador we recommend these outfits that are thin, but very effective against the intense cold.
Properly protecting your head is essential to maintain a good body temperature. In fact, experts say that the head is one of the areas that we should best protect because that is where most of the body heat escapes, since circulation is regulated so that our brain is always warm.
Therefore, if you do not want to be always shivering, you should equip yourself with a hat that offers adequate protection against freezing air and low temperatures.
At El Comprador de La Vanguardia we offer you these three models for men, women and children. You will find them at a good price and in many colors and prints.
If we live in an area where it is expected that it may snow, or that the frost may be intense, we must have boots on hand that will keep our feet warm and prevent slipping that could cause a fracture.
Our proposal is three models: two for adults and one for children. The first model are boots from the Mishansha brand that have a great quality-price ratio. The second model is high quality boots from the prestigious Columbia brand. And the proposal for the little ones is from the Crocs brand and they are warm and waterproof boots, and available in various colors.
The nose, ears and, above all, the fingers and toes, are the ones that suffer the most from thermal variations. This is due to vascular narrowing, which affects the amount of blood that circulates when thermometers drop in areas where the veins are thinner and fewer.
For this reason, they must be protected as much as possible and these foot insoles are a brilliant option. Simply open the package, place them in your shoes, wait a few minutes and enjoy 8 hours of warm feet.
Continuing with the idea of ??especially protecting some areas of our body, these gloves are perfect for hand protection. They are waterproof, thermal and snow-proof.
We propose a model for adults insulated with 40 g of 3M Thinsulate and 120 g of Warm Cotton, and a model for children made with the new high-quality cotton of the G series.
If you are really cold and that paralyzes you with the arrival of winter, this jacket is your best solution. The carbon fiber heating element heats up quickly and generates heat at the front and rear, allowing you to feel 360-degree warmth.
It can continue to heat the central parts of the left and right waist, neck and middle back to help keep the body warm, promote blood circulation, relieve pain and muscle tension.
One of the accessories that you should not be missing in your car is a good snow cloth that allows you to move beyond the area where the wheels alone cannot. This cover is fully approved and will help you stay safe in your car.
This spray liquid is used to defrost the frost that low temperatures create on the car windshield. It is the best-selling defrosting liquid on Amazon due to its effectiveness and speed.
It has a concentrated Icebreaker formula with immediate effect, which ensures that the frost will melt quickly and that we will not need to scratch too much to have the windshield completely translucent.
Whether ice or snow, with this utensil you are covered. It is, on the one hand, a robust ice scraper made of durable ABS plastic and, on the other hand, it is a sponge brush for effective snow removal.
Furthermore, you can be sure that your car will not suffer any scratches while using this tool.
A wood stove creates a cozy and warm atmosphere, but not all of us can have one in our home. Having a wood stove requires having a fireplace and that requires expensive works or is impossible in a block of flats.
If we want to have this warmth of a wood stove, but without getting involved or spending a fortune, we can opt for an electric fireplace like this one from the Homcom brand.
The flame effect is very successful, it has adjustable power, temperature and brightness, it is made of steel and glass and can be easily moved because it only weighs 5 kg.
A heater like this is the perfect solution to heat a small room in a very short time. For example, we can place it in the bathroom to have a good temperature when we get out of the shower.
The Rowenta Confort Compact has two adjustable power settings: 2,000 watts and 1,000 watts, and includes a silent mode that reduces the noise level. In addition, you can use it all year round thanks to its cold air fan that allows you to cool off or ventilate small rooms.
It also includes a thermostat with a mechanical anti-frost device, which helps maintain a room temperature above zero degrees. In addition, it has overheating protection so you don’t have to worry about the temperature damaging the device.
This thermal emitter from the Orbegozo brand is a heating system that is characterized by implementing Real Warm Elements technology and that represents great energy savings. The system consists of individual elements connected to each other inside the device in a way that reduces heat dispersion, providing a continuous flow of homogeneous hot air throughout the room.
Thanks to its programming we can set an on and off time so that when we get home we have a pleasant temperature without having to manipulate the devices. It has a remote control and a total disconnection button for zero consumption.
