Men are notorious for needing the thermostat set a bit lower than the women they share space with do. If that’s the case in your household, and the dad in your life could really use the gift of a cooler environment for Father’s Day, you can help him out by delivering the cool air in one of several ways.
Bladeless Fan
These ingenious fans actually put out a breeze without fan blades — well, actually the blades are located in the base of the fan. The pedestal stand has a compressor that draws in and puts out air. These fans supply a steady stream of air, are quiet and efficient to use.
Wi-fi Thermostat
If the dad in your life likes gadgets and the latest in technology, then how about giving him a Wi-fi thermostat? He’ll be in control of the temperature whether he’s at home or away, and will be able to make adjustments as needed from near or far through an app on a smart device. Some “learning” models can sense when there’s a need to adjust the temperature for humidity, for when no one is home or when the oven is on. They can also automatically adjust the temperature to a comfortable level prior to the user’s arrival.
Ductless Mini Split
Granted, this is a high-end gift, but it’s one that Dad will appreciate — particularly as a solution for his too-warm man cave. It may be that the air conditioner isn’t cooling certain parts of the house as effectively as it should. A mini split, which does not need ducts to deliver cool air, can be installed in one room or one area to bring the temperature down. It consists of an outdoor compressor and an indoor air handler, which is quiet and unobtrusive.
Ceiling Fan
If he doesn’t yet have a ceiling fan for his favorite spot, Dad will appreciate this welcome addition. Ceiling fans stir the air so you feel cooler without needing to turn down the thermostat.
