To Wash or Not to Wash: These Items Should Be Washed More or Less Than We Realize

A personal fan can make you feel a lot better when the room is hot, but it just might also make you feel crummy without you even realizing it. It’s easy to forget that even your rotating fan blades can build up dust; sometimes, it might be blowing it right back at you. You probably won’t react well to this setup if you’re allergic.

On average, you should give it a quick dusting once every other week. You’ll likely notice that you sneeze less if you keep your fan clean. And by cleaning it so often and avoiding buildup, you’re making it easier on yourself for the next cleaning. Just wipe and go!
