- Fans do not reduce air temperature or relative humidity, unlike air-conditioning equipment, but create a cooling effect by helping to evaporate sweat and increase heat exchange via convection.
- Fans add a small amount of heat to the room mainly due to waste heat from the motor, and partially due to friction.
Why it is Uncommon

ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 79 and blocks with 65: each hit it takes is cut by 26 %.
