Question from KCribley
In an effort to prevent my little ones from sticking their fingers in our box fans, I thought it would be a great idea to unscrew the plastic panels on each side of the fan, wrap them in window screening–which according to the package is fiberglass mesh–and then put the plastic panels back on.
After doing this, I realized that there might be some danger in blowing air through a fiberglass mesh screen especially since we regularly use a fan to blow directly on us at night while sleeping.
Obviously it’s similar to having open windows and the wind blowing through the same type of screen, but should we be concerned about using this screen with our fans?
Thanks for your help!

I’m not concerned. 🙂
