May 13,2025
When summer comes, the temperature rises sharply, and home appliances such as electric fans and air conditioners are naturally popular with consumers. Electric fans are loved by most families for their advantages such as environmental protection, energy saving, and health. Although electric fans are not expensive, there is a lot of knowledge in them. Today, the author will take you to quickly understand them in 5 minutes.
Types of household electric fans:
1: Fans using AC power:
1. Floor fan
Advantages: wide range of air supply, large air volume, and suitable for many places.
Disadvantages: It takes up space, and the head and base are quite large
Applicable occasions: dining room, living room
Because the size and height of the wind can be adjusted, and it can also shake its head, the price is cheap, generally between 100-500, and it is generally loved by the public.
2. Ceiling fan
Advantages: wide range of air supply, no space, large air volume
Disadvantages: difficult to clean, and relatively loud noise
Ceiling fans have a large coverage area and strong wind. Many ceiling fans now combine with lighting lamps. The two do not conflict, saving the installation area. They are generally divided into two types: concealable and non-concealable blades.
3. Table fan (rotating leaf fan)
Advantages: moderate space, flexible placement, wind direction can be at a specific angle.
Disadvantages: relatively loud noise, single style
Applicable occasions: bedroom
The rotating leaf fan (Hongyun fan) can rotate the blades, the wind force is not strong, and it will not blow towards people, which is suitable for use in sleeping environments. Ordinary table fans are flexible to place, have a shaking head function, and the wind force is not small. Suitable for use in small areas.
4. Tower fan
Advantages: space saving, soft air output
Disadvantages: air supply range and height are very limited
The use of tower fans is relatively limited, and it is not as convenient as floor fans and rotating leaf fans. It is suitable for the elderly and children.
5. Air circulation fan electric fan
Small air outlet, large air volume, strong wind force to promote indoor air circulation. Noise is also inevitable. Because the air outlet is small, it cannot be used directly as a fan, and it must be used in combination with air conditioning. I personally think it is unnecessary. The actual effect is not much different from turning on the air conditioner. Buying an air circulation fan is just paying an IQ tax. Of course, if it is for other purposes, it does not count.
2: Use DC fans
1. Breeze small electric fans (ceiling fans) are suitable for rented bedrooms and are specially hung in mosquito nets
Advantages: low noise
Disadvantages: low wind
2. Handheld small electric fans
Advantages: low noise and easy to carry
Disadvantages: low wind
It has become popular in recent years. It is small and exquisite, easy to carry. When going out, it is very comfortable and pleasant to have wind blowing under the sun. It is recommended for people who often go outdoors.
3. Stepless speed regulation DC fan
It is a standard function of DC motors. This function is very practical. Ordinary electric fans only have 3 to 4 gears. They are often too big or too small when used. There is no perfect speed regulation. It can usually adjust the speed in about 20 gears, which is more suitable for a variety of environments and occasions. Powered by lithium batteries, it can blow all night even in the event of a power outage. Silent function, basically no sound from the motor. And many products have been intelligentized.
How to choose an electric fan? What are the precautions?
1. Determine the brand. At present, the brands that make fans better include: Midea, Gree, Diamond and other brands. Try to choose well-known brands, and products that have passed 3C certification must be selected. Because it involves safety issues, you must not be careless. You must not be greedy and buy those knockoff products without any quality. Due to the poor quality of the products, the motor will heat up seriously during use, which is easy to catch fire and cause fire. For the choice of electric fan brand, I personally still trust Midea, because Midea started as an electric fan company, and the core component motor in the fan is of very good quality.
2. Determine the place where the fan will be used, and then choose the price. In fact, for most families, taking floor fans as an example, about 100-500 yuan is enough.
3. The fans are upgraded and replaced quickly. When you buy them, don't spend more money for some functions and gimmicks. According to the actual use, don't spend more money.
4. In recent years, the smart fans with many functions have their unique advantages and qualities. If you have the conditions, you can buy them.
