5 Alexa-compatible fans to beat the heat wave

5 Alexa-compatible fans to beat the heat wave

More than half of the month of May has already passed, and if your plan was to get an air conditioner this year, we have to give you the bad news that you are already late. Each year, the air conditioning section of large surfaces is usually filled during the first heat wave of the year, and a huge waiting list for installations is formed that usually extends until the middle of summer. If we also add that the price of electricity is skyrocketing lately, we’d better stick with a fan , which consumes less, is cheaper and we won’t have to wait to receive it. And well, since we are here, we are going to discard all that classic and boring fan, because the really interesting thing will be being able to turn it on with our voice at the same time that we are melting on our sofa.

Another very good option to cool a bedroom or living room efficiently is with a ceiling fan.

Of course, you will need someone to help you.
