Veni, vidi, ventilator
A look into the engine room at otto.de shows: along with the temperatures, the number of customer searches for cooling fans is also rising.
In the last two weeks alone, the number of searches for ventilators and air conditioning units has increased tenfold when compared to June. Ten thousand searches were made on 31st July alone - a suspected record. And it’s no wonder: the thermometer crept above the 35 degree mark in many places.
Despite a decrease in temperatures and rain showers being forecast, the summer is far from over according to weather experts. Good news for those who own a ventilator.
