As the UK experiences a scorching heatwave with temperatures set to reach 31°C, many are resorting to creative methods to keep cool. However, a dangerous hack that’s gone viral on TikTok is causing concern. The hack involves freezing wet towels and attaching them to fans in an attempt to create a makeshift AC unit. Electrical Safety First has warned against trying this hack, as water and electricity do not mix, and users risk severe electric shocks. The towel could also cause the unstable fan to fall over and put the motor under additional strain. Therefore, it’s essential to follow safety guidelines when using fans during a heatwave, such as not leaving them on overnight, purchasing fans from reputable retailers, and regularly cleaning them to avoid dust build-up. By staying safe and following guidelines, we can all keep cool during the hot summer months.
