There is nothing worse than a sleepless night from a ticking ceiling fan. Trust us, we get it. And when it all comes down to it, the cutting of costs can mean cutting the peace and quiet out of your fan purchase.
Here are 4 times you will be thankful for a quieter fan.
Sleep is imperative for good health and day to day function, both physically and mentally. From fatigue, mood disturbances, impaired judgement and more risk for accidents & injury, a good night’s sleep is game changing. Ceiling fans help move air for a comfortable night’s sleep, improving indoor air quality and air freshness, but when that ceiling fan is also ticking, a good night’s sleep is compromised.
Whether while working or studying, a quiet room is not only peaceful but it can also improve our ability to focus and create our best work. It’s worth making quietness a priority in a home office .
If you ever suffered from a migraine, you’ll know how sensitive you are to light and sound. A constant buzz, humm or tick can bring on the pain of a migraine. For your own health, it’s important to consider how a noisy ceiling fan might affect your quality of life.
If there are little ones running around, you will no doubt look forward to when they are peacefully sleeping at night, as these are often the only moments you are able to have to yourself. If considering a ceiling fan in a baby or child’s bedroom, it is worth investing in a quiet model, as exposure to constant sound can interrupt a child’s sleep, affecting their ability to problem solve, memorise and concentrate in the most important stages of their development years.
While ticking or constant humming of a ceiling fan may not seem like the biggest deal (you may even like the ticking!), there is a fine line between ‘it’s not too bad’ to ‘I can’t take it anymore’. Make peace and quiet a priority - your family will thank you for it!
For whisper-quiet ceiling fans, choose the Haiku I ceiling fan, equipped with brushless DC motors which reduce the electrical noise typically heard with ceiling fans. There is no time like the present to choose quiet airflow.
