A thermal insulating blanket is disclosed for providing an insulating barrier across doorways, stairways, and other openings between a heated area and an unheated area. The thermal insulating blanket includes an inner layer of flexible and compressible insulating material and an outer layer of flexible material. Means is provided for venting the air contained within the thermal insulating blanket to the ambient atmosphere when the blanket is compressed and restrained for compact storage. A resiliency inherent in the structure assures that the blanket returns to its pre-compressed state upon release of the restraints.

A reusable compressible thermal insulating blanket for covering an opening in a building comprising: (a) an inner layer of flexible and compressible insulating material having inherent resiliency and a free form state wherein an amount of contained air permeates said inner layer and a compressed state wherein a substantial amount of said contained air is excluded therefrom; (b) an outer layer of flexible material completely surrounding said inner layer; and (c) vent means for communicating said contained air with the ambient atmosphere and arranged so that upon compression of said insulating blanket a substantial amount of said contained air flows to the ambient atmosphere thereby forming a compact unit for storage and upon release of said compression, said inherent resiliency urges said inner layer into said free form state so that air flows from said ambient atmosphere replenishing said contained air, wherein said inner layer, when in said free form state, includes a pair of mututally opposed surfaces one of which is in substantial contact with a portion of said outer layer, and said vent means comprises a perforation through another portion of said outer layer.
