Fans Buying Guide

Everyone needs a reliable way to stay cool in the warmer months, but sometimes it’s just not practical to install an air conditioner in your home. Maybe you don’t spend enough time at home to justify it, or perhaps you live in a rental property. Not to mention, air conditioner installation can be quite costly. If you live in a temperate environment and you want an economical cooling solution, a fan can work wonders. The fan market is as saturated as ever, so take a look through this guide to discover the right fan for your needs. 

 

Tower Fans

Tower fans are popular because they can slot into rooms that are cramped for space. Despite their narrow construction, tower fans are capable of strong air output, and many people favour them for their quiet operation. Generally speaking, tower fans come with more features than pedestal fans, such as timers and air purifying capabilities. 

Desk Fans

When your deadline is fast approaching, you can’t afford to be distracted by the heat. Ideal for individual use in the office or at home, a desk fan is a compact solution for quickly cooling off. Just plug it in, place it on a flat surface, and enjoy the refreshing airflow. 

 

Pedestal Fans

A pedestal fan consists of large blades inside a housing that sits on top of a stand. The majority of pedestal fans are height-adjustable, which makes them suitable for a wide range of applications. The size of their blades means pedestal fans can disperse air around larger rooms, and they are great for bedrooms because they can provide relief at bed-height.

 

 

Floor/Box Fans

 

Larger than a desk fan but smaller than a pedestal fan, a floor or box fan sits on the ground and can cool down rooms of all sizes. Most floor fans will resemble a pedestal fan minus the stand, whereas a box fan is usually square with a grill. Many floor fans feature high velocity motors, but seek out an oscillating model for a more consistent temperature throughout your space.

 

 

Evaporative Coolers

While not strictly a fan, an evaporative cooler can work wonders in dry, arid environments. A fan inside the unit draws in hot air, channelling it through a series of water-soaked pads. Following a process of evaporation, the air that blows out the other side is cool and refreshing.

 

 

Ceiling Fans

Due to their ability to cool a whole room, ceiling fans offer a resource-conscious alternative to split system air conditioners. Suspended from the ceiling, you won’t have to worry about any obstruction, and you won’t need to pack the unit away for storage in the colder months. Ceiling fans are also a great choice for decor enthusiasts, allowing you to complement and contrast with furniture items and the walls of your room.
