The size of your area, the amount and type of cooling you want, as well as running costs will determine which fan or air conditioner is best for your home.
Here’s a few hints to help you make the right selection:
Permanent options, like a ceiling fan or heat pump (air conditioner in summer), are the cheapest heating & cooling options to run, but are more expensive to install. They’re best for large regularly used rooms and can be used to distribute cool air through your whole home when installed with a heat transfer kit.
It might be a bit of a rush to install a ceiling fan the same week as an incoming heatwave, but you’ll be well set up in the future without stealing a precious power point in your lounge or bedroom. Ceiling fans also come in handy in winter, as they can help circulate the warm air that sits at the top of the room.
Here’s what to look for if you opt for a ceiling fan:
Portable cooling is best for cooling smaller spaces for a short time, and if you want a portable option. They are inexpensive to buy and relatively economical to run.
Portable Fans don’t cool down the air but instead just move it around. Then, why do we feel the cold? The answer is simple: the moving air creates a chilling effect on the skin which makes us feel colder
Simple yet effective, personal fans are the answer if you are always hot. These will help you stay cool this summer. Use the USB fans anywhere. Simply plug into a USB port and use at the beach, the campground, and more. Some are also battery operated and small enough to fit in your handbag!

Portable Air Conditioners (PAC’s) or Evaporative coolers do cool the air electrically or by water. They both require some windows or doors to be open to create airflow and allow hot air trapped inside to escape. The cooler process relies on airflow, with warm air passing through a cooling pad, getting moisture, being pumped through the house and finally exiting via open doors or windows. Only 100% fresh air is circulating, rather than stale and recycled air. It also means that evaporative coolers can also be used to cool outdoor spaces, such as terraces and alfresco areas.
An evaporative cooler is a device that cools air through the evaporation of water. Evaporative cooling differs from typical air conditioning systems, which use vapour-compression or absorption refrigeration cycles.
