Electric fans are must-haves for any home, office or business during the warmer summer months. Although the Irish summer can feel short-lived, when those heatwaves hit, it pays to be prepared! It’s especially important to keep your workspace cool so employees don’t feel overheated. This can naturally lead to unproductive working habits and dissatisfaction. A standing fan is an easy and cost-efficient way to cool down an office, business or home.
Electric standing fans for cooler, productive work spaces
In Ireland, offices are required to maintain a reasonable working temperature — read more in our blog: What’s the Ideal Office Temperature? If you don’t have air conditioning, a floor fan is the next best choice for air circulation, not to mention cost-effective, given the short amount of warmer days/weeks.
For other businesses that regularly welcome customers or patients coming in the door, like doctors' waiting rooms, hairdressers, retail shops, or gyms, electric fans can be a lifesaver. Keep customers cool in warm environments and ensure they’ll return.
Some environments, such as hairdressers with their hairdryers on full heat, or smaller retail units, will naturally be warmer all year round, so an electric fan is a great staple to have on hand.
Electric fans with useful features
Modern standing electric fans have convenient settings that come in handy, such as a rotating fan head or tilting option to control the direction of the air flow. Many models, such as Dunlop standing fans, also include a safety protection grid cover so the fans are not exposed protecting from children and other vulnerable people.
