~Anne~ Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 ETA: And I do think the fan cools down the room generally so is for the better. Interestingly, I read an article once that stated the opposite. The motor of the fan apparently increases the room temperature. As for cooling, a fan by itself it can't cool anything. The actual act of cooling anything works through evaporation unless you use a coolant or gas. The reaosn why we feel cooler is the air blowing at the minute droplets of perspiration on our skin. The only way a fan can blow cool air is to have it blow over ice or cold water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pebbles Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I'm not a fan of fans They just seem to stir up the hot air and make me feel hotter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niques Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 (edited) James only really visibly feels the heat after walks (obviously), and by that point his nose is sodden from drinking and he's normally lying on top of half an ice cube or two that he forgot to eat - I figure the fan's probably doing him some good. Probably not so much when the dog's completely dry. But then my dog always seems to be wet for one reason or another Can't wait til I can justify aircon use to myself. Probably a bit too early in the season yet. Edited November 15, 2010 by Niques Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
