Simple Instructions

Introduction to The Box Fan.

Items needed:
2 windows
1 box fan

Instructions for installation:
1. Raise both windows. Preferably have windows located on opposite side of room.
2. Take box fan and place in first window.
Note: This step is not as easy as it would appear. First make sure the fan is positioned in the window backwards. The front of the fan should face the outside.
3. Close window down onto top of the fan.
Note: Make sure you balance the fan well and bring the window down toward top front so that your fan controls can be easily accessed with re-opening the window.
4. Turn fan on.
Note: If a big blast of air blows in your face......turn the fan around see #2 Note.
5. Position your bed, or wherever you sleep in between the two windows.

Purpose:
The box fan should pull out the hot air, and miraculously cool air will blow through the other window.

Now lay back and enjoy the cool breeze, nothing like it after a hot summers day in the south.

Some of my fondest childhood memories are of summers spent at my grandparents house where I first encountered the magic of "The Box Fan". Couldn't we all use something that would pull out the old and bring in the new. I know I'd welcome a bit of fresh air ever now and again.
