Malta may love air conditioners, but there are some things that AC units just can’t do. Sometimes, only fans can get the job done. Using less energy, easy to store when winter rolls around and has endless possibilities – sometimes only fans work. 

Here are the top seven times only a fan would really get the job done. 

1. To cool down food

Imagine this, you’re ending off a nice summer day with a scoop of ice cream and the classic maqrut. But, coming straight out of the air fryer, your maqrut is piping hot. That’s where the fan comes in. Cooling down your food is an only fan’s job. 

2. To blow-dry your hair without the heat

Getting out of the shower with your hair dripping wet is usually solved by blowdrying your hair, but it’s scalding hot in the summer. So, how do you dry your hair? Sounds like another job only a fan can do. 

3. For when you don’t want to ruin your home’s design

Spending hours on end constructing mood boards and figuring out the tone of the room could easily be ruined by an AC unit. When you want to keep your house cool without sacrificing the aesthetic, only fans can get the job done.

4. After too much sun

Xemxata season is here and let’s face it, forgetting to put on sunblock happens more often than not. Feeling really hot comes hand in hand with a wicked sunburn, and one of the best ways to cool down is to sit and enjoy the wind blowing in your face. 

5. As a mosquito repellent

Being weak fliers, having a fan blowing wind is enough to mean that no mosquitoes will get anywhere near you. Keeping you cool and protecting you from any pesky bites, only fans can give you the best of both worlds. 

6. To dry clothes faster 

Putting clothes in the tumble dryer is just a huge waste of energy, plus, the clothes come out piping hot and who wants to handle warm clothes in the summer? Put them on your clothes horse underneath a ceiling fan and ta-da, dry clothes in no time! 

7. They’re easy to buy online

Being easy to transport from one place to another and having enough power to blow your socks off, getting your hands on any type of fan is super easy to do online. All you need to do is browse through the online shop, add to your cart, and wait for your fan to be delivered.
