Did you know that one of the benefits of a fan is being able to increase air circulation in the room. However, turning on a fan while sleeping will trigger health problems such as fever.

This can happen because the gust of the wind from the fan will trigger an imbalance in body temperature. To avoid this, follow some tips on turning on the fan while standing down.

Don't bring the fan to bed. Place the fan a little further so that the wind that comes out is not too big. You can give a distance of 2 or 3 meters from the location of your bed.

It is not recommended to direct the fan directly to the bed. Instead, you can direct the fan to the wall to reflect the wind. So that the wind doesn't hit the body right away.

Usually fans have three speed levels. When turning it on when you sleep, adjust the speed of the fan to the lowest level, namely 1. Don't put the speed to the highest level because it will make you cold while sleeping.

If you have a habit of turning on a fan, try to diligently clean the dust that sticks to the fan. This is done so that the wind emitted does not contain dust or other dangerous particles.

Not only fans, you also have to clean your rooms regularly. This is done to prevent dust particles in the room from flying so as not to interfere with your respiratory tract.

Fans will fly light particles all over. Try to keep light particles that are easy to fly, such as powder or burning mosquito medicine. The powder particles flown by the fans will be inhaled into the airways. Meanwhile, the fire from the burning mosquito medicine has the potential to trigger a fire.

It is recommended to cover the body with a blanket. This step is needed so that the body is not cold and the body temperature is maintained.

If you use a fan with an automatic non-active timer, set the fan to die after 1 hour has passed. You won't feel hot if you sleep soundly so fans don't need to turn on again.
