Trick to Enhance Fan Cooling
A technique that has gained popularity on social media involves using a damp towel on the fan. The method is simple: dampen a towel with cold water and place it directly on the running fan.
As the air passes through the damp towel, it creates a cooling sensation that can spread throughout the room. This approach is particularly beneficial in dry climates, where it helps reduce ambient temperatures.

Using Windows to Cool the House
Windows can be a key ally in cooling your home, especially when used strategically with a fan. When daylight fades and outdoor temperatures drop, placing the back of the fan near an open window can help draw cool air inside.
This method produces an effect similar to natural air conditioning and becomes even more effective when aligned with the wind direction, enabling airflow that expels hot air and replaces it with cool air.

Positioning the Fan for Optimal Performance
Tower or vertical fans are typically more effective at distributing air in large spaces, while table fans are ideal for smaller areas.
Positioning the fan at a strategic angle, either near the ground or directed toward the ceiling, can improve airflow depending on the heat distribution in the room.
Additionally, combining the fan with other elements such as thermal or blackout curtains can prevent heat from entering during the hottest hours of the day, enhancing its cooling capacity.
