Why is my storage heater fuse burning out?

My storage heater fuse has recently started to burn out. I put covers on them around 2 months ago and there is no problem with them except one. It has progressively got worse to the point where it is burning out without even beginning to heat up. I assume this may be to do with the covers, but then surely all the other heaters would burn out aswel.

any answers?

They have vent holes to let the heat out - if you cover the air holes then it will get too warm inside. Your fuse - probably a thermal link fuse - will burn out.

As for the ones not popping the fuse who can say - they too should not be covered there's a fire risk - that's why electrical appliances have fuses.

It is best if you do not restrict the air flow.
