Do you use aircon or just electric fan?

Postby averygirl72 » 04 Dec 2017, 05:49

Our electric bill doubled when we install air conditioner but we continue to use it because we want sleeping in a cooler room at night. In the day we have electric fans non stop

I prefer using electric fan. Come to think nowadays electricity is way to high and aircon consumes more electricity. I think i will go with electric fan. Cheaper but very useful my friend.

I use an electric fan in the summer but the rest of the time we don't really need it in the UK as it's either cold or raining and we would probably get hypothermia!

My friend, you know in our place where it is cold, because it is in the mountainous part of our country. So we are blessed to have such cold weather thus we don't use an aircon or an electric fan... It's a big help when it comes to electric consumption... :idea: :idea: :idea:

I live in a very comfortable region in the US. Our apartment has central air conditioning. We turned it on to test it when we first moved in, but it has not been turned on since that first day, nearly 8 years ago. We rarely do more than open the solid doors and windows and just leave the screens to keep out bugs. Just natural breezes flow through all the time so we rarely even need to turn on a fan. According to our electric bill, we seem to be considered very economical, since they award us with a small discount for consistently being in the lowest 3% of all residential electric bills in our region. I suppose most of our neighbors must be using their air conditioners.

Wow that is great my friend. Well opening the doors and windows is a big help of saving electricity. Love the air entering the house freely. It makes you feel good if natural air gets the house.

I have an air conditioner in my house and the electric fan is also there. But I like electric fan more because if we continue using the air conditioner we can not live without it.

I prefer using an electric fan. It's more cost-effective using an electric fan. Maybe you can use an aircon if it's in summer.

Our house is made of wood too. It does not protect us a lot from heat during summer time. Heat enters the house.

I have an electric fan at home. Air conditioners are great and all but the current setup is fine by me.

Yeah I know places where it is windy. High places have cool weather. You are lucky. How about during summer?

I point out that we've always used electric fans in the summer, although this year we're about to get a quote to see how much we'll spend on installing air conditioning. However, where you live, is it really hot in the summer?

I can understand why an electric fan simply moves air and if it's too hot, the fan it turns out to be useless.
