What is temperature?
Unlike air quality and humidity, temperature primarily affects our comfort. As a result, we notice this property of air almost immediately. As soon as it gets cold outside, energy costs skyrocket and we quickly seek out the coolness with the first rays of sunshine. A distinction can therefore be made between cold and warm temperatures. Because everyone is involved in this on a daily basis, this characteristic requires the least explanation. However, we would like to explain the various methods of cooling or heating the temperature.
What to do about high temperature in the home?
If you suffer from a high temperature in your home, you can effectively reduce it with the help of a fan or a mobile air conditioner. To be able to make a good choice between both devices, it is important to know how they work and their main differences.
Fan
A fan moves air through the room; this lowers the wind chill, while keeping the effective temperature the same.
Mobile air conditioner
Unlike a fan, a mobile air conditioner does lower the effective temperature. The device draws in air, after which heat is extracted from the air by an environmentally friendly coolant (R290). This warm air is then discharged to the outside via an exhaust hose. At the same time, the cold air that remains is dispersed throughout the room.

What to do about low temperature in the home?
Raise a low temperature in your home effectively with the help of a heater. Although the majority of homes today are equipped with central heating, rooms that are less well heated can feel chilly during the cold winter months. For such spaces (think of a basement, garage or attic), a heater can provide a solution. To heat a room, depending on the area, you can choose a ceramic heater or a convection heater. A convection heater can also be mounted on the wall.
