Benefits and Drawbacks of Hot Water Bottles
Rubber deteriorates a few years after manufacture, making hot water bottles more prone to leaking and thus increasing the risk of burns. It’s crucial to note that hot water bottles are designed for warm or hot water, not boiling water.
Despite safety concerns, hot water bottles serve a purpose. Initially made from metals that caused severe burns, they were vital for warming beds and providing relief to aching muscles before the advent of central heating. Eduard Penkala’s rubber design in the early 1900s addressed the need for a safer, more comfortable option.

Despite this, she became a wife, mother, author, and founder of a remarkable organization dedicated to helping burn survivors.
