A nano alumina fabric protects heaters used for de-icing aircraft or other vehicles. This allows heaters to withstand mechanical foreign object damage (FOD), is environmentally safe, and is a cost-efficient alternative to other protection fabrics. A heating assembly (10A) includes a nano alumica fabric (20), a first adhesive (22), a heating element (24), wherein the nano alumina fabric (20) is attached to the heating element (24) by the first adhesive (22), a second adhesive (26), and a glass pre-preg fabric (28), wherein the glass pre-preg fabric (28) is attached to the heating element (24) by the second adhesive (26) on a side of the heating element (24) opposite the nano alumina fabric (20).
