Holmes 12-Inch Power Fan With Rotating Grill ($40)
It’s one of the most popular options from one of the most popular fan; this fan provides air flow that feels awesome and just as light and cool as a lovely spring breeze (or that of your girlfriend’s dragon breath), and that’s more than what you need when the heatwave hits throughout the summer. Plus, it has a remote, so if you’re in bed sweating your sack off you don’t need to get up and drip your nastiness everywhere to get the air going.
Seville Classics UltraSlimLine 40-inch Tower Fan ($60)
Tower fans look sleeker than stubby table fans and can send cold air your way without taking up much room. And for the price, this one kicks ass. The Seville unit is one of the best fans for bigger rooms. You get four speeds, a long-range remote, an energy saving setting, and a timer that can automatically shut the fan off if you prefer.
Keep your fan blades clean for optimal cooling performance
Keeping fan blades clean is essential for getting the most out of a cooling system. Over time, dust and debris can accumulate on the blades, reducing their efficiency and leading to inferior cooling performance. This is especially true in homes that suffer from high levels of airborne dust or pet hair.
To keep everything running well, consider buying a brush specifically designed to fit the blades, making it easier to cosmetically clean them. In more extreme situations there are also vacuum attachments which can be used to remove persistent amounts of dirt and grime. Not only will this keep your cooling system up and running, but it will help save you money in energy costs too!
