“Sales for fans grew 60%.”

I’m one of the 60%. Home Depot and Lowe’s are cleaned out of fans, so I ordered a 3ft tower oscillating fan, for my garage’s “dead air zone”.

I ordered a 3 ft tower oscillating fan!

We bought one 3 summers ago. It stays in our family room where my wife and I spend most of the day. The rest of our home is covered by 2 HVACs.

The rest of our home is controlled by 2 remote thermostats. We keep the temp off until we use the areas covered by HVAC.

Our 3 ft tower oscillating fan is remote controlled, and we don’t use it until about dinner and post dinner.

Our PG&E electric bill goes up to a couple of hundred bucks per month our hot summer/fall.

Neighbors, who run their AC @ 24/7 got some $1,000+ bills for June with smaller homes. Their July bills will be bigger with the heat the past few weeks.
