In many instances, a portable desk fan is the only thing that can save you from warm air and a 'closed in' feeling. Especially if you work in a 'cube farm' - you know, those rows and rows of cubicles. It's like living in a home addition where every house looks the same. Same colors, same windows, same lawns - boring, boring, boring. It can make the air dense and thick. If you have a desk fan, you can at least get the air moving around you in your little space.



Circulation of air while you work is very important. Just as leaving a ceiling fan running at night adds to the comfort of a good night's sleep, having a small fan that you can move around where you need it in order to have some freshness coming at you in the stale area of a closed office can offer relief. It doesn't seem like much, but if you walk around a large office building, you will see many small desk fans.



A portable desk fan can be used to help keep your desktop cool. In some areas a desktop will run not. This is through no fault of the computer, the fan inside the computer is working just fine, but the environment within which it is operated causes it to not cool properly. These fans can be very small, clip-on types that attach to a shelf. They can be battery or electric, tilt or sweep. It all depends upon the features you desire. You can buy a small fan to do the job that you need in a small confined space.

These fans are available in discount stores, big box stores, online or office stores. Most fans of this type are inexpensive. If you expect to use it at your desk all day, every day, you should buy an electric fan. Otherwise, you will be buying batteries continually. You might be surprised at how many batteries you will go through running one of these small fans day after day. You might not have a choice if you choose the very small clip-on type or an electrical outlet is not conveniently located.
