This red sliding door outlet cover replaces any standard 3 prong electrical outlet cover. Made in the USA. Red outlet covers are currently available only in standard 3 prong type. Save energy and save money. An energy saving insulating gasket around the perimeter of the outlet cover seals against air leakages into and
out through outlet holes. To move the outlet door, insert a plug and pull to the side.
Child restraint design: Spring-loaded sliding doors automatically keep
receptacle holes covered when not in use. This gives the cover a solid
appearance, concealing the black receptacle holes which are so inviting to
toddlers. Because of its child safety effectiveness, the CareCover was selected
for use by the National Institute of Children's Environments in
"California Showcase 1989."
Remodeling function and economy: Remodeling? CareCovers cover brown, white or ivory electrical
outlets so a color change is simple. Cover with white, off white, ivory, red or
brown sliding panel outlet covers. This child safety outlet cover conceals
wall outlets.
Energy efficiency: An insulating gasket around the entire cover seals against air leakages into and
out of your home.
The Minneapolis Blower door test is used in the
industry to measure energy loss. The blower test was conducted on a house with
standard electrical outlet covers. Each electrical outlet in that house was
covered with an automatic sliding door CareCover. The test was repeated. Air
infiltration was reduced 15%. For its energy efficiency, the Care Cover
received a Department of Energy Award. On October 4, 1988, The Secretary of
Energy announced the Care Cover won the United States Department of Energy,
National Award for Energy Innovation.

Fits all "typical household receptacles." These 120 Volt, 15 Amp, NEMA 5-15 receptacles are 3 prong duplex electrical outlets with two separated oval shaped receptacles.(The screw that holds the cover screws into the center of the outlet.) Note: if your outlets contact two receptacles stacked in a
rectangle, you need to purchase Decora safety outlet covers, which fasten over the outlet with one screw on top and one screw on the bottom.
Note: Inspect electrical outlets for age deterioration or for repeated use damage . Loosely fitting plugs, especially 2 prong ungrounded ones, may partially or completely slip from the receptacle
when cords are slightly moved. These damaged receptacles are fire hazards.

are not being used.
