KEEPING your home cool in the summer months can be a bit of a challenge.
Many households turn to gadgets to help keep their pad feeling comfortable when temperatures are rising but beware as these can add a lot of money to energy bills.
The typical cost of running a fan is relatively low, no matter whether you opt for a bladeless model or more traditional style portable fan.
For 24 hours of continuous use, you’d expect to pay between 3p and 7p through energy costs, according to the Energy Saving Trust.
Even if you continuously used a fan over June, July and August it would add, at most, around £6 to an energy bill.
However, with hotter weather more people are opting for air conditioning units.
These appliances circulate air around the room in a similar way to a fan – but also remove heat from the room.
Air con units are far more expensive to run than fans – typically 20 times as much, according to the EST.
You’re looking at paying up to £1.30 for 24 hours of continuous use.
Over the course of a month that would be around £39 and over the summer months, £117.
There are some easy ways to make sure you’re getting the most out of a fan to keep your home cool so you can avoid other pricier gadgets, according to consumer group Which?.
Here are the mistakes to avoid…
Your fan can help cool a room faster if there is ice of cold water placed in front of it.
To make this trick work best, you want a bowl filled to the top with ice and the fan blowing air directly on to it.
This will make your fan feel a little more like an air conditioner without the added cost.
If it’s cooler outside, placing your fan next to a window will help draw in colder air helping to bring down the temperature in your home.
This could work especially well in evenings when it’s usually colder outside. Make sure it’s facing the room and leave the window open.
If you have another window in the room and another spare fan, you could further help push air out of the room by facing it out of the window. This will help create a crosswind in the room.
Some may think that having a fan on in your bedroom before bedtime could be a good way to cool a room.
But in reality you’re wasting energy as a fan only creates a breeze which feels cooling rather than lowering the temperature.
It’s not a good idea to leave a fan running when you’re out or not in a room either from a safety aspect.
Get the vacuum out to suck up dust and dirt in a room before turning on your fan.
The gadget will blow air as well as dust and pollen particles around the room.
This can aggravate allergies.
If you’re using your fan for the first time this year, it’s worth giving it a clean. Follow the manufacturer instructions and clean blades gently if you’re able to.
It’s a good idea to store your fan in a box or bag during cooler months to stop them gathering dust.
As the name suggests, desk fans are usually best placed on a desk or table.
They will then help you feel cool if you’re working next to it.
These gadgets are not too powerful and won’t create a really strong breeze.
So unless you’re sat at the table, opt for a pedestal or tower fan which is designed to reach a larger distance in the room.
SUNNIER days and warmer weather will leave many of us wanting to kit out gardens and outdoor areas.
Sun Savers Editor Lana Clements explains how to get a great deal on summer essentials…
It pays to know how to bag big savings on the likes of hot tubs paddling pools, egg chairs and outside bars.
Many retailers have flash sales across entire ranges – often this ties into payday at the end of the month or Bank Holiday weekends.
Sign up to the mailing lists of your favourite brands and you’ll be first to know of special offers. It can be worth following retailers on social media too.
Keep a close eye on the specialbuys at Aldi and middle of Lidl drops which drop a couple of times a week and usually mean great value seasonal items such as beach gear and paddling pools.
If you are not in a hurry to buy an item, try adding it to the shopping cart and leaving it for a couple of days.
Sometimes big brands will try to tempt you into the sale by offering you a discount.
Always check if you can get cashback before paying. It’s especially worth using sites such as Topcashback, Quidco and app Jamdoughnut when buying bigger ticket items such as garden furniture as you’ll get a nice kickback.
CHELSEA ace Djordje Petrovic asked to be left out of the Club World Cup squad to focus on his future.
Petrovic, 25, enjoyed a successful loan stint at Strasbourg this past season and recently returned to the Blues’ squad.

And following his impressive performances in Ligue 1 the goalkeeper wants to be a guaranteed starter, something the West Londoners cannot offer him.
According to The Telegraph, that is why the Serbia international asked to be omitted from manager Enzo Maresca’s squad for the Club World Cup.
Chelsea chiefs understand Petrovic’s position and thus relations between the player and the club remain good.
Thus, both parties agreed that Petrovic would be best served trying to sort out his future instead of travelling to the US.

And should the keeper fail to secure a permanent move away to another club that meets his demands then he will rejoin Chelsea for pre-season training in July.
Strasbourg have expressed an interest in signing the Serbian permanently this summer.
However, there is also interest from various Premier League sides – West Ham being one of them – as well as teams from Europe.

Chelsea were planning to include Petrovic in their Club World Cup squad had he not asked to be left out regardless of their recent bid to land AC Milan star Mike Maignan.
The Blues’ £12.7million offer wasn’t accepted by Milan, who demand almost double despite Maignan having only one year left on his contract and refusing to extend.
The West Londoners could revisit their attempt to sign the France international when the summer transfer window reopens on June 16.
However, Maresca still has faith in his other goalkeepers Robert Sanchez, Filip Jorgensen and Mike Penders, which is also a reason why Petrovic couldn’t be guaranteed a starting role.
Andrey Santos, who also played for Strasbourg last season, is the only loanee to be included in the Club World Cup squad.
The same doesn’t apply for Raheem Sterling, Joao Felix and Axel Disasi, while new signings Liam Delap, Dario Essugo and Mamadou Sarr will be flying to the US.
SOME of the world’s biggest clubs are heading Stateside for a MAMMOTH Club World Cup.
Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid, Man City, and Inter Miami are among the 32 teams taking part in the tournament, which runs from June 14 to July 13.
Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, Erling Haaland, Ousmane Dembele, Cole Palmer and Harry Kane will be showing their skills to packed crowds across the US.
Los Blancos are favourites to lift the trophy in New York but will face stiff competition from around the globe.

PREMIER LEAGUE chiefs have axed a little-known broadcasting rule ahead of next season.
There have been restrictions in place to stop youth-team matches being shown at the same time as senior top-flight games.
But that blackout has reportedly been lifted for the 2025/26 campaign.
Under-21 games in the Premier League 2 can now be live streamed even if they clash with fixtures on Sky Sports or TNT Sports.
Official club channels are ready to “take the lead” in showing the action.
But there are rumours of a TV deal in the coming years should viewing figures be significant.
The rule change is a major boost for football fans up and down the country – especially Manchester United supporters.
Viewers have long complained about MUTV not showing enough youth-team fixtures live.
Just 14 of 35 Under-21 games were shown last season and just eight of those were Premier League 2 clashes.
Manchester Evening News report that the in-house channel was impacted by Sir Jim Ratcliffe‘s brutal job cuts.
Premier League fans are set to deal with another year of the 3pm blackout, which prevents games being broadcast live at that time to protect attendances
Though reports suggest the measure could be axed when the current TV deal expires at the end of the 2028/29 season.
LOVE Island viewers were left horrified tonight when new bombshell Remell Mullins made a disgusting sex confession during a racy game.
Tonight saw Remell arrive in the Love Island villa on Wednesday night’s episode and wasted no time in making an impression.
The Islanders gather to play truth or dare and he was asked to reveal a secret about himself.
Remell then casually said: “The most people I’ve slept with in a night is five.”
His new co-stars were visibly stunned by the revelation and viewers at home rushed to comment.
One wrote on social media: “Remell why did you choose to disclose that??? Men are so weird.”
Someone else said: “Remell you should’ve taken that secret to the grave.”
Another wrote: “Remell five in one night is just greedy and nasty.”
And a fourth added: “Remell was definitely boasting with that 5 girls in a night revelation and that backfired massively. What a child.”
Remell wasn’t the only Islander to make a confession about his bedroom antics tonight.
Tommy Bradley claimed he’s never stayed in bed with a girl overnight before.
He made the statement as he told his villa partner Megan Clarke that she would be his first experience of sharing a bed with someone overnight.
But fans were not convinced.
One commented: “So how’s Tommy been in a relationship but said he’s never shared a bed with a girl?..”
And another penned: “How has Tommy had a relationship and never slept in bed with a girl ??”
Departures:
DONALD Trump refused to rule out arresting California Governor Gavin Newsom over his handling of the Los Angeles riots.
The pair have been trading blows since Newsom slammed Trump’s decision to send federal troops into the city to quell immigration raid rioters.
Trump has sent around 4,000 of the National Guard and 700 Marines into LA, where they have clashed violently with protesting mobs and been given to make arrests
The Governor accused Trump of manufacturing the flare-ups, saying his actions were “akin to authoritarian regimes” – and was dismissed as “incompetent” in return.
He vowed his state is “suing Donald Trump” for “creating fear and terror to […] violate the US constitution”.
Trump has previously toyed with the idea of arresting Newsom, and refused to rule it out in an interview with the New York Post.
Trump’s border czar Tom Homan had warned that anyone, including public officials, would be arrested if they obstructed federal law enforcement.
On Sunday, Newsom goaded Trump over the threats, saying in a MSNBC interview: “Come after me, arrest me. Let’s just get it over with, tough guy.”
Asked directly if he is going to arrest and charge Gavin Newsom, Trump said: “Well, he’s not doing a good job.
“In theory you could, I guess. It’s almost like a dissipation of duties. Nobody’s ever seen anything like it.”
Before Wednesday’s interview, Newsom shared his thoughts on the arrest threats.
He said: “The President of the United States just called for the arrest of a sitting Governor.
“This is a day I hoped I would never see in America. I don’t care if you’re a Democrat or a Republican this is a line we cannot cross as a nation this is an unmistakable step toward authoritarianism.”
Trump follow up with a brutal takedown of Newsom’s record in office – which included blaming him for the devastating wild fires that ravaged parts of LA in January.
Trump said: “First he had his wildfires that burned down half the place […] I told them water, get the water from the pacific north west […] I got the water to go down.
“They were using environmental as a reason not to give water. They were protecting a certain type of fish – which by the way has not done well.
“He should have done it [redirected the water supply] in my first term. You wouldn’t have had the fires.”
Interviewer Miranda Devine then asked about a much-disputed phone call between Trump and Newsom – with each swearing to a different version of events.
The President claimed he rang to discuss sending in National Guardsmen – but Newsom branded him a “stone-cold liar”.
Newsom insists he “kept trying to bring up” the situation in LA, but that Trump veered onto other subjects.
However, Trump doubled down today and said: “Of course I did [talk about it]. The phone call was to deploy the troops.
“I said: ‘You’re city is burning down, your state is in bad trouble.’
“All I want is him to do a good job […] he’s doing a poor job.”
In an effort to checkmate Newsom, Trump brandished a screenshot showing a 16-minute call between the two at 1:23am on June 7.
Newsom does not dispute that the call happened – but maintains that Trump “never once brought up the National Guard”.
Trump landed other personal jibes, mocking the California High-Speed Rail project which has run over budget and claiming that, without him, Newsom “wouldn’t have LA”.
He said: “Between the fires and the riots, there would be nothing left. You have a governor that’s incompetent, a mayor that’s highly incompetent.”
FIFA Club World Cup will be guarded by “suited and booted” ICE and DHS agents, officials have warned.
The mammoth event’s opening ceremony takes place at Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium on Saturday.
The countdown is officially on until the FIFA Club World Cup kicks off, with a curtain-raiser between Inter Miami and a team from Egypt, Al Ahly.
The Department of Homeland Security has revealed that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) personnel will provide security at the game.
On its Facebook account, CBP posted last week: “Let the games begin.
“The first #FIFAClubWorldCup games start on June 14th in Miami, FL at the Hard Rock Stadium.
“CBP will be suited and booted and ready to provide security for the first round of games. #CBPxFIFA #FootballUnitesTheWorld.”
The post has since been deleted.
However, NBC said the post had prompted questions about whether the presence of federal agents was “just part of the overall security team, which is normal for a big event?”
This follows demonstrations nationwide, including Dallas and Austin in Texas, and Chicago and New York, after federal immigration raids arrested dozens of workers in Los Angeles.
It also comes as Donald Trump continues his huge immigration crackdown and travel ban.
And Vice President JD Vance last month warned World Cup travellers not to overstay their welcome.
The broadcaster said it was not clear whether the agents will also be checking papers and detaining fans arriving for the game.
FIFA today held a press conference to publicise the Club World Cup – the winning side of which will earn up to $125 million.
NBC noted, “It’s obvious that Fifa would rather focus on the games instead of outside issues.”
FIFA president Gianni Infantino urged fans to buy tickets despite concerns about the presence of federal agents.
He told fans, “Be part of history, football is such an important sport all over the world. we’ll have billions of people watching this from home who would love to come and attend.”
Infantino was asked whether he had any concerns about ICE and border officials being present at the games.
He replied, “No I don’t have any concerns on anything in the sense that we are very attentive on any security questions.
“Most important for us is to guarantee security for our fans who will come to the games, this is our priority.”
The station stressed that it is normal for local police to partner with federal counterparts and law enforcement agents to provide security at big events.
The broadcaster said it had spoken to ICE agents – who had confirmed its officials will be at the games – to provide security.
NBC – citing ICE advice – told viewers intending on attending games that all non-American citizens need to carry proof of their legal status.
This is particularly vital after the debacle last year, when 7,000 unticketed supporters broke into the Copa America final.
Some fans climbed over fences, while others were incredibly seen trying to enter via a ventilation system at the Hard Rock Stadium.
But, Thomas Kennedy of the Florida Immigrant Coalition said the federal agents’ now-deleted social media warning had caused confusion.
He said, “The messaging that CBP is using is a bit cryptic.
“It’s sort of alluding that people should have their paperwork in order to attend the games.
“It creates an environment where people are less likely to come watch the games because of just sheer intimidation.”
When asked about the security arrangement, Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava said, “We’re here to make sure people are safe, that’s our focus, to work with all of the law enforcement personnel, our safety personnel, and make sure they have a seamless experience.”
