Default Storage heaters - Does covering them cause them to break down?

Hi,

My lodger has just had a 2nd storage heater break down on her (I
replaced the 1st one having been unsuccessful in trying to cure the
problem by replacing the input thermostat).

She had been covering the heater with her towel.

Would this cause the heater to fail?

If yes, is there typically a specific peice of equipment that fails.


All advice gratefully received....

Steve
