Brilio.net - Fans and ACs are used to provide coolness in the room. Even so, the functions of these two electronic devices are actually different. For AC, it cools the room using the refrigeration process. Meanwhile, a fan only provides a wind effect through air movement.
The use of these two electronic devices can be adjusted to suit individual needs. However, because the operational costs of fans are more affordable, many people ultimately prefer to use them. Unfortunately, fans are not as effective as AC for cooling a room.
But there's no need to worry, it turns out there is a way to change the fan so it's as cold as the AC . The method was demonstrated by TikTok user @yemina_santuy. In his video upload, this netizen does not appear to have dismantled his fan at all. So it's easy and very practical to practice at home. Curious about how?
How to make a fan as cool as an AC.
The first step, prepare the necessary materials first. Reported by BrilioFood from TikTok @yemina_santuy on Monday (6/5), the main ingredient needed is kitchen ingredients, namely ice cubes. Crush or shave the ice cubes then put them in a plastic container.
"Give it food coloring to make it look more attractive," he said.

Stir until the ice cubes change color completely. Once done, transfer the ice cubes to a plastic clip. Then put the plastic clip in the freezer.

Because it was put in the freezer, the ice cubes in the plastic clip were frozen and hardened again. After that, take it out and stick the plastic clip between the fans. In his video upload, this netizen relies on a curtain hook to attach the plastic clip.

Well, the ice cubes in the plastic clip are the key to the fan being as cold as the AC. The reason is, the fan takes air from behind, so that the cold temperature from the ice cubes can spread throughout the room evenly.
So, are you interested in trying it at home? Taking a peek at @yemina_santuy's TikTok upload, apart from having been watched 50 thousand times, quite a few netizens have provided responses in the comments column.
"creatifff," wrote the TikTok account @Noer Lestari.
"want to try... how many days are really hot. m.," said the TikTok account @Nhanha_13.

How to store ice cubes outdoors so they don't melt quickly.
Storing ice cubes outdoors at high temperatures can be challenging because they tend to melt quickly. However, you can try several ways to slow down the melting process of ice cubes:
1. Use an ice cube cooler.
Store ice cubes in an ice cube cooler equipped with good insulation. An ice cube cooler can help maintain a low temperature around the ice cubes and slow melting.
2. Use a thermos or thick ice cube box.
If you don't have an ice cube cooler, you can use a thermos or ice cube box made of thick material and has good insulation. Place ice cubes in the thermos or ice cube box to keep the temperature cold longer.
3. Use dry ice.
If possible, you can also store ice cubes together with dry ice. Dry ice can help keep the temperature around the ice cubes low, thereby slowing the melting process.
4. Place in a shady place.
Avoid placing ice cubes in direct sunlight or in hot places. Choose a shady and cool place to store the ice cubes so that they don't melt quickly.
5. Use a cool pad.
Place the ice cubes on a cool base, such as a rock or ice-covered material, to help keep the temperature of the ice cubes low.
By applying some of the methods above, you can slow down the melting process of ice cubes when storing them outdoors at high temperatures.
