1. The water mist fan, a popular choice in the sweltering heat of summer.
Rising in popularity in recent years due to its affordable price and accessibility to households, the water mist fan stands out for its effective cooling, easy installation, user-friendly design, and minimal impact on household electronics.
There is an increasing variety of cooling devices available with different designs, sizes, and operating mechanisms to serve during the summer in Vietnam.
Today, with the diverse needs and criteria of each household during the hot season, we also have many options to 'beat the heat,' from mini fans, pedestal fans, ceiling fans, to air conditioners, water mist fans, misting fans, air coolers...
However, the early summer of 2018 witnessed a remarkable surge in purchases of water mist fans, even surpassing many previously dominant products and remaining indispensable in households such as ceiling fans, air conditioners, air conditioning. air conditioning. Mytour noted a rapid increase in the purchase of refrigeration appliances amidst the context of intense heat, with water mist fans being the most prominent.
The water mist fan has experienced strong growth in the early period and before the hot season in the northern provinces.
As explained by Mr. Chuyen, a consultant for the refrigeration department, the water mist fan has become popular in recent years due to its low price - relatively easy accessibility to households, effective cooling, easy installation, user-friendly design, and minimal impact on household electronics. The mechanism of the water mist fan also differs somewhat from the type of fan often confused by people, which is mist fans and air conditioners.
The effective cooling mechanism, minimal damage to electronic devices
The water mist fan cools using dry ice or a cooling water solution (depending on the type of fan), while mist fans and air conditioners use water for cooling. Therefore, the effects of these 3 types of fans will differ significantly.
Of particular note is the high concentration of mist from mist fans, visible to the naked eye, helping to reduce the temperature more (from 7 - 10 degrees Celsius), but because they use cooling water, high humidity can damage electrical appliances and furniture if the fan is left on for many hours and the room is closed.

Operation mechanism of the water mist fan.
This detail is somewhat reduced for air conditioning fans, but because this type is quite bulky, and often noisy when operating, it is not very popular, especially in households with small to medium-sized rooms.
Meanwhile, the water mist fan only produces an invisible 'cold air' and is most effective at close range, but it creates more stable cold air (decreasing by 5 - 7 degrees Celsius), believed to be better for rooms equipped with air conditioning or closed-door rooms and with small areas because it does not create mist and bad humidity when left on for many hours. In general, the water mist fan will be better for air-conditioned or closed-door rooms with small areas, under 12 square meters.
Reasonable price
Instead of spending tens of millions on a two-way air conditioner or 4-5 million dong on a mini air conditioner, Vietnamese consumers now turn to effective cooling products in small, narrow-use rooms with low costs, easy installation, transportation. Accordingly, a water mist fan priced from 1-2 million dong will be a much more reasonable investment if placed in certain areas of the house such as bedrooms or living rooms, with the ability to cool effectively, yet consume much less electricity than a large-capacity air conditioner.
The water mist fan is suitable for use in areas under 12 square meters.
The water mist fan is also an ideal choice for student dormitories or rented rooms with small, narrow areas, from 15-20 square meters. These rooms have the common feature of not large areas of use, making the air often stuffy, suffocating on the hottest days, and almost impossible to cool effectively with a regular standing fan or wall-mounted fan. Meanwhile, it would be excessive to buy an air conditioner to cool in such a small, narrow area.
With the aforementioned advantages, including effective cooling capability, combined with a low price compared to air conditioners, has helped the water mist fan become the most popular and widely interested cooling device at the beginning of the hot season in 2018.
