In answer to your question: No your lower extremeties don't get a lot colder than the rest of you because the cool air takes the path of least resistance and flows up and around your body during the night, pushing the heat from your body out.
Also, when using the Bedfan you should actually turn your thermostat up higher because with the breeze blowing around your body you won't need or want the thermostat low to keep comfortable, which saves money on your electric bill. You can also adjust the fan speed to the amount of air you want, so if you do get cool in the night you can turn it down. Most people only ever need up to 30% of the fan power available.
I am perhaps one of the biggest Bedfan "fans" not just because my husband invented it, but because I use it every night, even in the winter. I am always hot, especially at night, and currently the Bedfan is getting me through my second pregnancy. I am due in August and with the south Texas heat, I look forward to retreating to my bed at nap time and the end of the day to slip beneath the cool sheets and relax and get the sleep I need. Without it, I would be way too hot to sleep, especially now!
I believe in and support this product 100% because it has helped so many people and I don't know how I ever lived without my own Bedfan. Thanks for the great informative article.
