ACs are great, but they are expensive to run and useless during a power outage. If you want to save money or need cooling off the grid, you might be better off buying a fan, which you can use either by itself or alongside your AC to reduce how hard it has to work.

There are now many types of fans for different spaces and situations, so you can choose one that fits how and where you need cooling. You can choose a sophisticated tower fan for your home or office, or go for a rechargeable fan that you can take anywhere, even off the grid. No matter what you choose, you can stay comfortable without depending entirely on air conditioning.

How fans help you stay comfortable

You might be surprised to learn that a stand fan won’t actually lower the temperature in a room. Instead, it moves air around your body to help sweat evaporate more quickly. That’s what creates the cooling sensation, even if the room itself stays at the same temperature.

If you’re looking for more control over your comfort, the Crownline SF-291 Stand Fan offers three speed settings and three wind modes, so you can adjust the airflow to suit your preference. You can also change the height up to 125cm and adjust the oscillating head to help spread cool air around the room.

Prefer a tower fan? The Crownline TF-398 gives you even more ways to personalise the airflow with four speed settings and three wind modes. It also features an 80-degree oscillation angle and airflow speeds of up to 7 metres per second to circulate air throughout your room.

Fans can help reduce energy use

If you’re trying to reduce electricity consumption, fans may be able to help. Research published in The Lancet Planetary Health found that using indoor fans alongside air conditioning can help lower energy use without making people feel less comfortable. Because fans use less than 5% of the electricity required by air conditioners, they can allow you to raise your AC thermostat by 3 to 4°C while maintaining a comfortable indoor environment.

Timer functions can also help you avoid unnecessary energy use. The Crownline SF-291 stand fan includes an electronic timer that you can set anywhere from one to eight hours, making it easy to switch the fan off automatically. Meanwhile, the Crownline TF-398 tower fan lets you set the timer for up to nine hours, so you don’t have to remember to turn it off yourself.

Stay cool even when the power goes out

A rechargeable fan gives you cooling that isn’t tied to a power outlet. That’s especially useful during power interruptions or when you’re spending time outdoors.

The Crownline RF-241 runs on a 12V 4500mAh rechargeable battery, which gives you up to 24 hours of operation on the lowest setting or up to three hours on the highest. It also offers nine speed settings that let you control the airflow. If you’re away from mains power, you can even run it using an 18V/20W solar panel.

You’ll also appreciate this rechargeable fan when there’s no power, since it includes a bright LED light and a USB charging port. This makes the Crownline RF-241 useful during emergencies or whenever you need to charge a mobile phone or another USB-powered device during a power outage.
