If you think household fans are ineffective and expensive to use, think again! Fans are a great way to cool down and get the air in your home moving. From floor standing fans, wall fans to ceiling fans, there’s a fan out there for everyone, and at Solent you’re guaranteed to find one that suits your particular needs.
When most people picture a fan, they imagine a standard three-blade option, either pedestal or ceiling fan, that blows cool air on your face on a hot day. While this picture is common in the movies, Solent fans can do so much more for your house. They can help maintain humidity levels, protect various rooms of your house from stagnant air, and even help you sleep better at night. And that’s just the beginning! When making a purchase, it is important to think carefully about the type of fan you want and where you plan to use it. Below are five of the best ways to get the most out of a fan in your home.
1. Fans Cool You Down
Perfect for more moderate climates, fans are a very inexpensive way to cool down. They can also be quite refreshing, as they circulate cool air throughout the room. Pedestal fans are a good option as well for this type of use, as they are easy to move from room to room. Be sure to pay attention to the size of the room you want to cool, as ceiling fans will cover a wider area than a pedestal fan and Solent’s wall fan is perfect for larger rooms.
2. Fans Help Clear Smoke
Whether you’re dealing with a small kitchen mishap or your cigar-smoking uncle, a pedestal fan can be a saviour. Use your pedestal fan to suck in fresh air through a window. Once the room is cleared, it will circulate clean air throughout the room. You don’t even need smoke in the house for this trick – it works for any room that needs ventilating.
3. Fans Help You Sleep
It can be especially difficult to sleep on a warm summer night. Typically, you have to choose between an expensive air conditioner or the uncomfortable heat. A bedroom fan can be a great alternative, as it is far cheaper to buy and operate, and it significantly lowers body temperature.
The cool breeze from a fan can be relaxing while you try to fall asleep. Solent ceiling fans are perfect for moderate bedroom cooling, and installed over the bed, they’re quite effective. Solent pedestal fans are a good option for the bedroom as well and a great addition to your home.
Fans Help Reduce Home Humidity
A Solent fan can do more than just cool; it can keep humidity in check. Because they ventilate the room, maintaining proper humidity levels is easy. Too much humidity can damage your home. Blowing fresh air into the room can keep the humidity levels down in your home and keep indoor areas well-ventilated. The constant circulation of air helps keep the air in your home clean as well as dry. It’s a win-win all around.
Fans accentuate room décor
A fan can be so much more than a functional appliance; it can also add decorative charm to your living environment. Solent fans come in a variety of styles and sizes, and accentuate just about any room in your home. Solent’s variety can certainly add a refreshing change of pace from the traditionally boring models.
