Frequently Asked Questions

Is a cover required when using a Hydrocollator heat pack?
Yes. A cover must always be placed between the heated pack and the patient's skin to prevent burns. Never apply a Hydrocollator pack directly to bare skin.

What size Hydrocollator pack does this cover fit?
This cover is designed for standard Hydrocollator heat packs measuring 10" x 12". The cover dimensions are 19" x 27" to allow for proper folding and layering around the pack.

How many layers of terry cloth should be used?
Standard clinical practice recommends 6–8 layers of terry cloth between the pack and the patient's skin. If using a single cover, additional toweling may be needed depending on pack temperature and patient sensitivity.

Can this cover be laundered?
Yes. Terry cloth covers are designed for repeated use and can be laundered between patients. Follow your facility's infection control and laundering protocols.
