A Honey of Fan
The summers here in the furthest regions of East Texas have quite atemperature range. Starting from those easy days in the early parts of May, when the heat is nice and gentle, when it isn’t quite as aggressive and mean-spirited. Then you get into the hard days of August and September; these days are relentless and just, vile. The heat feels like it is out to get you, stealing your breath when you walk out the door; why, even your eyesight, if you’re an unfortunate eyeglass wearer (IYKYK). It is like The Tarasque has a hold of the land and is torturing us! I don’t know how one place can be so hot, go so long without rain, and yet be so stinking humid that the dirt grows mold; all the while, the grass is dying from lack of moisture--the confusion and ugh! But this is my home, East Texas, I love it here!
Even with ample air conditioning in your home, it is essential to keep the air circulating as well. Fans are a vital part of this, whether it is ceiling fans inside or out on the deck, or portable fans. Keeping the air circulated helps prevent mold and mildew growth in the corners of your home in climates like East Texas. Even during winter months, the humidity is very high. Fans also reduce the strain on your A/C unit by spreading the cool air faster, extending the life of the unit and lowering the electric bill by reducing overall consumption of electricity.
This summer started out as if Mother Nature was not going to be throwing hands with us, we were getting ample amounts of rain without getting beaten to smithereens in the process, temperatures were hot but nothing aggressive. We made it nearly into August without hitting triple digits, not counting the Real Feel temperatures, those don’t matter. It ALWAYS really feels somethin’ awful in the summer here, blame it all on the humidity. I don’t know who, what, where, when, or why the Mother got angry, but she came into August hot and crabbier than a old bat caught in a hot flash time loop she can’t get out of. She ain’t been kind!
We had to up our fan game here on the homestead! I keep some key points in mind whilst shopping, we won’t be staying in this house for more than another year or two. We have plans to downsize and I keep that in mind when I am making new purchases. I wanted something tall, narrow, streamlined, with multiple setting options. I also wanted a remote for the times when I may be recovering from surgery or we’re in bed and want to change it without getting up at night.
After looking at the options I had available to me locally, I opted for the Honeywell QuietSet Whole Room Oscillating Tower Fan with Remote, in white. It is available right now on Amazon for only $39.89, a significant price reduction from what it was when I purchased it a month ago. I am most certainly taking advantage of those savings for the purchase of a second unit and having it shipped in! I cannot express the level of satisfaction we have gotten from this fan.
It is quiet, even when it is not in the designated quiet mode. The lights dim out so that there is nothing distracting at night to annoy you and keep you awake. It is tall enough to cover you when you are in bed sufficiently, and we have a 16” tall platform frame for reference. It is also very lightweight and has a handy carrying handle on the back for transporting from room to room.
Honeywell really covered every base with this fan, in my opinion. It is powerful, yet lightweight and portable. It is compact and fires on all cylinders and you just could not ask for more in a fan.
