Too Hot to Handle?

🔥 Too Hot to Handle? Keep Your Cool with Fans from Pettigrew Feed & Hardware

Estimated Read Time: 3–4 minutes

When the thermometer hits the 90s and the breeze disappears like your motivation to mow the lawn, you need more than a glass of iced tea to stay cool — you need airflow. Whether you’re trying to cool off a bedroom, a barn, or a broodmare, Pettigrew Feed & Hardware has what you need to beat the heat the smart way.

We’re fully stocked with a wide variety of fans to help you move that stagnant air and give your home or barn a break from the swelter. Let’s break it down.

💨 Cool Your Home — Without Breaking the Bank

We’ve got fans of all sizes and speeds to help you create a breeze in any room of the house:

• Box Fans – Classic, effective, and perfect for windows or floors.

• Oscillating Stand Fans – Circulate air throughout bedrooms and living spaces.

• Desk & Table Fans – Great for personal cooling while working or reading.

• High-Velocity Floor Fans – Ideal for garages, workshops, and larger areas.

• Barn Fans – Perfect for... you guessed it... barns.

And if you’re thinking “What about air conditioners?” — we’ve got one unit left in stock. So unless you want to fight your neighbor over it, fans might just be your best friend right now. Besides, running a few fans is way cheaper than running your A/C all day.

🐴 Big Air for Barns, Stables & Livestock

Your animals are feeling the heat too. Stagnant, stuffy barns can quickly become dangerous environments for livestock in extreme weather.

That’s why we carry large barn fans built to move serious air:

• Create cross-ventilation to keep temperatures down.

• Reduce heat stress for horses, cattle, and other animals.

• Improve air quality and reduce odor buildup.

Pair your airflow with our fresh pine shavings to keep bedding cool, dry, and cleaner longer. Not only do pine shavings help absorb moisture and odor, they also make resting more comfortable for your animals — especially during those long, hot nights.

🔧 Fan Setup Tips for Maximum Cooling

Want to get the most out of your fans? Try these quick tips:

• Create a wind tunnel: Place fans across from windows or barn doors to move air through.

• Elevate your fans: Warm air rises — move it out with fans placed higher up.

• Angle for coverage: In barns, direct large fans down barn aisles to cool multiple stalls at once.

• Keep it dry: Use fans to reduce humidity and keep bedding materials fresher.
