The fan is more than a simple appliance that one uses to circulate air and cool a room. This cooling appliance is regarded as one of the to-haves in houses. Seen as a cheap alternative to air conditioning AC, fans can improve ventilation in a room and can also help lower the temperature of a room. While ceiling fans and wall fans have gained ground in the market over the years, wall fans have also in their ways become people’s darling.
For all the right reasons, wall fans are becoming prominent in the market. Although they might not be the most popular and most sought-after type of fans in this part of the world, wall fans are widely regarded as one of the very best types of fans around. Wall fans serve as the best alternatives to houses that cannot allow the installation of ceiling fans, either because of the structure or strength of the ceiling. Wall fans are mounted on a wall. They combine the dynamism of standing fans with the operation of standing fans.
In situations where space is limited, wall fans are usually the best. Unlike standing fans, all you do is mount it on any available space on the wall, thus leaving the remaining parts of the room free. Compared to ceiling fans, wall fans are easier to install and relatively stress-free to maintain. They can be installed in a few minutes.
Wall fans are of various types with various modes of operation; some oscillate and some others are unidirectional. They are available in different designs, types, colours, and qualities, hence they vary in price.
