When the weather gets warmer, many people take the fan down from the attic. This way you can still get some cooling while sleeping. The cool air seems ideal, but did you know that sleeping with a fan can also have disadvantages? In this article you can read why you might be better off sleeping without a fan.
Dry air
A fan blows air around constantly, which causes the air in your room to become drier. This can lead to dry skin, chapped lips and even dry eyes or excess mucous membranes. People who are indirectly prone to skin problems can suffer extra from this.
Allergies
Fans not only move air, but also dust, pollen and other allergens that are in your room. If you are the cause of, for example, dust mites or hay fever, your symptoms may worsen at night. You may sleep better because of the cool air, but there is a chance that you will wake up with a stuffy nose or watery eyes.
Muscle Pain
A fan that is constantly focused on one spot, such as your neck or face, can cause you to wake up in the morning with strong muscles or even muscle pain. This is because your muscles cool down and become more powerful during sleep, especially if the air is blown directly onto your body.
