At Igenix, we offer a wide range of cooling products, including desk fans, tower fans, and pedestal fans, designed to help you stay cool and comfortable all summer.
Over the past few years, the United Kingdom has experienced some record-breaking temperatures. With many news outlets initially predicting a hotter than average summer for 2024, the weather has been anything but boring so far.
A rise in temperatures leads to hotter homes, which can increase the risk of heatstroke and heat exhaustion. But don’t worry; there are plenty of ways to stay comfortable this summer, and we’ll be taking you through a few of them.
Optimise the ventilation in your home
It’s important to ensure your home is properly ventilated to prevent heat buildup. Having the windows open is a good way to create a natural breeze. However, if you want to boost the airflow, you can also use a desk or floor fan.
The Air Circulator Floor Fan from Igenix is ideal for boosting airflow around your home. It comes equipped with a powerful motor and an adjustable, tilting head, making it easy to control the direction of the breeze.
Air Coolers & Air Conditioners
If you want to go all out to beat the heat, then you should consider an air cooler or air conditioner, which can be a larger investment but will last for years to come.
For a unit that works fast, you should buy an air conditioner. Air conditioners circulate cool air throughout the house and push warm air out the window to keep your home feeling fresh. Due to this, they must be vented out of a window to perform efficiently.
However, if you need a product that can be used anywhere in the room, an air cooler is the best choice. An air cooler uses water, ice packs and a fan to circulate cool air without needing to vent through a window.
If you really can’t decide between the two, you should check out the 4-in-1 Portable Air Conditioner, Cooling, Heating & Dehumidifier from Igenix. This multifunctional unit can be used to create the perfect year-round environment.
Placing fans around your home strategically
Strategically placing fans throughout your home can significantly enhance your comfort. By understanding the various types of fans and their specific benefits, you can position them effectively to improve airflow.
Desk fans
If you're using a desk fan, such as the 16 Inch Desk Fan from Igenix, position it near an open window. This helps to circulate fresh air and reduce heat. Desk fans are a versatile and energy-efficient way to keep yourself comfortable during a heat wave.
Pedestal fans
Compared to a desk fan, which is best for personal use, a pedestal fan is ideal for shared spaces. For a fan that packs more power, have a look at the 12 Inch Pedestal Fan from Igenix.
Its seven blades create a strong, natural breeze that's also quiet, making it perfect for those hot summer nights. To create an open breeze, place your pedestal fan across from an open door or window to promote cross-ventilation.
Tower fans
Tower fans have a sleek, streamlined design that many users find appealing. They're also great at improving the air circulation in both smaller and larger spaces.
The 43 Inch Digital Tower Fan from Igenix, includes features such as a timer, multiple speeds, and remote control. These features make it versatile and convenient for use in various rooms.
