Hi, Community! Quick question... if a room is hot does this fan actually cool it down or just circulate hot air?

Well, it will circulate the same air in the room. At night when the outside air is a bit cooler, and you put the fan so it sucks air into the room, it will cool it down gradually.

Fans don't cool down air, air conditioners lower temps, while fans create a circulation of air (some better than others) which touches the skin and thus helps people be "cooler". Again, only an air conditioner will lower temps within a room, unless a fan is blowing cool air from outside or from another more cool area. Hope this helps.

It actually circulates hot air. Depending on the temperature, the amount of moisture in the air, and your position in the air stream, there might well be a cooling effect on you due to the evaporation of moisture.

I use this fan to vent my condo at night. I place it in front of a sliding screen door and turn it on high. When iw ake up int he morning, the concrete slab floor has cooled greatly. When it starts to warm up, I close to doors and windows - condo stays cool most of the day. Then turn the fan on the last few hours while it's cooling off outside, then open the condo and repeat.

This is not an air conditioner. It's a very good fan. Cooling a room down has several factors unknown to me. So, we enjoy ours because it is unique and it allows air to move in the space it is placed. If you need that to happen, then will enjoy it as much as we have. So much, we ordered a 2nd one. Good luck!

If it is very hot then this fan will only move the hot air around. You'll probably still need a small A/C unit.

The fan cools only as much as a fan would cool the air. It is not an air conditioner. But this fan is taller than most, so it does a much better job of cooling a room, in my opinion.And it absolutely is not noisy, as some reviews stated; also, the blue light doesn't 'light up the whole house' as others have said. We absolutely love this fan. Hopefully you will too.

This fan has a heat and cool selection. The dials are similar to the windshield wiper settings in a car, with the broader selection staying on longer and the narrower selection stays on until your temperature is met. I leave mine on fan all the time because it will continue to pull the air up into the room, which is on the third floor, therefore hot in the summer and freezing in the winter - it helps about 10 degrees both seasons.Hope this answer helps

All it does is show the current temperature in the room. I think you're supposed to be able to set it to a temperature you want cool the room down to, but the fan is not powerful enough for that. It's pretty pointless, I never use it.

Hello! The fan blows a strong amount of air but will only be as cool as your AC setting allows. Hope this information is helpful!

There is no fan on the heaters, they work by convection meaning the cold air enters the bottom of the heater and the warm air exits the top. If the heater is sized big enough for the room there won't be a need for a fan. The natural movement of the air will heat the room.

I've placed this fan across the room personally and from my experience, the fan does help cool down the entire room as what it does is to circulate the air bringing down the temperature of the room. Because I'm living in Singapore, where the climate is really hot, I usually have the fan faced directly to myself with the AC on and it does get really cold. I've not tried a compact model to further advice but this 733B is definitely a nice addition to my room.

This fan does not cool the air. It moves air well, allowing for a warmer setter on the AC control, because it feels cooler when the air is moving.

I have mine in the smallest bedroom which I made an office. It won't cool a living room or TV room unless you point the air cooler at you so you can feel the cool air. It works I have 2 of them and willmost likely get a 3rd. That's the best answer I can give you.

The room is not any cooler in terms of degrees when you use a fan whereas an air conditioner does actually lower the temperature. The 'cooling' effect you feel with a fan is a result of the movement of air across your skin.

Fans do not provide any cooling. If anything, they create heat from operation. That said, it will help circulate stagnant area and make it more enjoyable. It is a powerful fan, for sure.

No. This is just a fan, not an air conditioner. It blows the air that is in the room around and works the same way every other fan works.

Yes! This fan moves a ton of air! We have it in our living room and hardly ever turn it on high. Slow or medium usually cools the room down nicely.

This heater does not cool a room. It is strictly a heater only. It does have a fan setting which circulates the air in a room but it does not cool it.

Absolutely YES. YES. Highest heat transfer comes with coldest air MOVING against the hottest surface. Also, using a fan will cause the heater to draw (slightly) more power, making (slightly) more heat and spreading it widely. (Lower temp-&gt;lower element resistance-&gt;higher power draw-&gt;greater heat output with no bad effect on the life-span of the heater, it's a win-win.) AND, the fan will ensure that the thermostat never switches the heater OFF. Every extra minute ON is another minute generating more heat. :) Another fan, on the floor, blowing colder floor-air up and into the warmer ceiling-air (hot air rises) will mix the air, making the room more comfortable in less time. Fans are NOT just for summer anymore, because they can help you stay warm, too. :) Did anyone here take college physics? FYI- I was an engineer for thirty years or so. Hope this is useful. PS-I have a fan running now, in New England, in November, on a gray and blustery day.
