My wife and I have toyed with the idea of a ceiling fan in our bedroom and due the impending heat wave and probably more in future years, I've looking at them again. Does anybody have one they can recommend at all? I need one with a remote.
And noisy as a fan?How about a portable aircon / dehumidifier ? More versatile and can be put away when not needed. Also cheaper than a tumble dryer for clothes drying.
Ditto, seem very good quality - ours isn't posh, just a pull cord ;-)Ours are "fantasia" branded. Remote controlled by pulling a cord a mix of 3 and 4 speed with preset direction switch on the body
been in 37 years, good as new.
I bet you have a great collection of pulloversIn the spirit of full disclosure, we're also hardy souls (or maybe cheapskates) so we very rarely heat or cool the place: 6C inside the house doesn't bother us at all in the winter
Surprisingly enough, not really - just some light fleeces. The Boss prefers the cold and years at boarding school inured me to it.....I bet you have a great collection of pullovers![]()
Yeah, went to Scotland during the '76 heatwave, had to wear Aran sweater & coat!I don't like sleeping in a draught of air. I'll wake in the morning with a stiff neck, or shoulder. I think a fan just churns the warm air about and adds about 60W of heating to an already hot room. My daughter just got a 12000btu portable air conditioning unit. It is very good, just like in the car when the air conditioning kicks in on a really hot day. Expensive to run though. That would be a good use for solar power. I'm seriously thinking of getting one, as I do every year, but by the time I think about it the weather is cold again. In Scotland we only have a handful of days when the heat at night is uncomfortable.
Our current property we did the same although it is a little noisy at full steam so swmbo recently bought a new smart one on a pedestal which was quite a chunk more expensive but has the bonus of being “whisper quiet” ,according to the blurb along with having 26? speeds…because you obviously need that many. We’re both chuffed at the lack of noise so we can use it while watching the goggle box without having to crank the tv’s volume up, and with it being portable, can then cart it off to the boudoir when it’s feathers time.Ditto, seem very good quality - ours isn't posh, just a pull cord ;-)
