What are Fans & Air Conditioners?
When it comes to keeping cool in warm weather, both fans and air conditioners are popular solutions—but they work in very different ways.
Fans do not lower room temperature; instead, they circulate air to create a wind-chill effect that helps the body feel cooler. They're lightweight, energy-efficient, and ideal for spot cooling in well-ventilated spaces. Common types include desk fans, pedestal fans, and tower fans.
Air conditioners, on the other hand, actively cool a space by removing heat and humidity from the air. They are better suited for enclosed rooms and hot, humid climates where circulating air alone isn't enough.
