To make a fan work like an air conditioner, place a bowl of ice or frozen water bottles in front of it. The fan will blow air over the ice, creating a cool breeze similar to air conditioning. Additionally, closing curtains and blinds can keep your space cooler. Consider using a humidifier or misting your face with water for extra relief. Ensure good ventilation to allow the cooler air to circulate effectively.**
