Our summers are getting hotter, and all the evidence is pointing to this trend continuing over time. This means that we need to find ways to keep cool at home and at work in order to be able to conduct our daily activities in comfort.

Fans offer a great solution for lots of different environments. They work by moving the air around (not by cooling it as you may think). The process of moving air over the skin evaporates moisture and reduces heat energy so we feel cooler. Maximise this by placing fans near a source of airflows, such as an open door or window.

Here are some great examples of fans for different applications:

MYLEK 36 Inch Electric Tower Fan 

This is a tower fan so offers great cooling for its size. That’s because it has a small footprint (so good for even small rooms where space is limited) but has height so can move more air around. Tower fans are good for bedrooms and offices because they’re very quiet, due to the blades being on the inside of the housing.

This model is packed with features including 3-speed settings, a remote control, oscillation mode, and a timer. It even has a built-in ioniser, which makes the air feel fresher as well as cooler, and is thought to boost mood and wellbeing. Plus, it looks really stylish, and you have a choice of black or white so you can coordinate with your interior.

MYLEK 16 Inch Black Remote Control Pedestal Fan 

Pedestal fans like this one offer very efficient heating due to their height, so they are good for large spaces like offices. This one has form as well as function, in gloss black. It has 3-speed settings but perhaps its most interesting feature is the 3 wind modes. One is a standard fan setting, meaning it will just run constantly until turned off. One is a natural setting that will intermittently turn on and off to replicate the feel of a natural breeze. And the other is a Sleep mode that reduces speed in 30-minute intervals until it’s on the lowest setting. This prevents you from getting too cold at the night and disturbing your sleep

MYLEK Air Circulator Office Fan 18-20" 

Available in 2 sizes, this is a powerful fan that is suitable for large spaces such as commercial settings like offices, gyms, and warehouses. Air circulator fans work by moving large amounts of air and even work in spaces that have poor natural airflow (where windows and door opening may be small in relation to the size of the area). This fan is effective even in rooms that have very high ceilings and will help to prevent warm air from stagnating, which can be a health risk.

MYLEK 16 Inch Electric Remote Control Wall Fan 

A fan that is mounted on the wall rather than standing on the floor or desk, like this one, is useful for circulating air at head height and for rooms where space is at a premium. They are also good for spaces used by multiple people as there is no trip hazard or danger of it being knocked over and it can be placed high enough so that they can’t be easily damaged. This model has a remote control and timer for added convenience.

MYLEK Remote Control Portable Air Cooler 6L with Ice Packs 

An air cooler does use a fan, but the cooling is augmented by the use of water and, in this case, ice packs (unlike standard fans, these do cool air as well as move it). They are bulkier than fans but super powerful and really sit somewhere between a fan and a fully integrated air conditioning unit, so they are excellent for large offices or other commercial settings. This model comes with 4 ice packs and has a 6-litre water tank
