Something to cool you off better
Sue has a little fan she uses at home in her sewing room, she brought it along with us. She told me it didn't blow air out anymore, you could hold it up to your face, and nothing....
I looked at it..with my glasses on, and saw a tiny bit of dust, lint and crud just on the tips of the 3 blades. I took the cover off, cleaned them real good, put the cover on and it worked super!
The three other fans got the same improved airflow.
Check your fans, I bet they could use the tip of the blade cleaning.
Cool, man.....

Ozz, you are not supposed to have a fan in Colorado this time of the year.

Sounds great wish we were there rather than riding the storms out here in Kansas. Two nights ago we had 75 MPH straight line winds that turned over a few units in the park but we rode it out OK.
The toppers on the slides stayed on so I know they are rated for 75 MPH winds.

Vickie gave me her hair dryer to look at because it wasn't blowing very well. The rear of the dryer is the intake with a screen over it. A little blow job with the compressor and it's good as new.

Yes, Jim I cleaned the screen on the fan above the kitchen also, it was kind of clogged.

Dangit Ozz, you're worse than my wife with her honey do list. I'm off to clean the fans now. EDIT; OMG, I didn't realize how dirty a ceiling fan could be. Now I've got to dust and vacuum.
