Keeping Your Cool: A Comprehensive Guide to Cleaning Different Clip Fan Models

As the summer heat rolls in, ensuring your clip fans are in top-notch condition becomes essential for a comfortable living space. In this guide, we'll walk you through the simple yet effective process of cleaning three popular clip fan models – the AC Infinity, Vivoson, and a classic clip fan. Regular maintenance not only enhances efficiency but also contributes to a quieter operation and a longer lifespan for your beloved fans.


AC Infinity Clip Fans

Prepare for Disassembly:

To start, locate the front cover of your AC Infinity clip fan. Turn it counterclockwise, and it should easily pop off, revealing the interior covered in dust.


Cleaning the Blades:

Dust accumulation impacts performance, so grab a damp cloth for an efficient cleaning process. Wipe down the blades thoroughly, ensuring all dust and debris are removed. This not only enhances efficiency but also contributes to noise reduction and blade balance.


Vivoson Clip Fans

Unscrewing for Access:

For Vivoson clip fans, a Phillips head screwdriver is your tool of choice. Locate the screw at the bottom of the fan and remove it by turning counterclockwise. The front cover will then easily come off.


Bug-Free Cleaning:

VivoSun fans may surprise you with the amount of dirt they collect, especially if they have white blades. Cleanse the blades with a damp cloth, paying extra attention to any unfortunate insects that met their end in the blades.


Classic Clip Fans

Tab-Pushing Technique:

Classic clip fans, with their timeless design, often come with tabs at the bottom. Gently push these tabs out one by one while simultaneously pulling on the front cover. With this method, the cover will pop off, granting you access to the blades.


Effortless Cleaning:

Similar to the other models, a damp cloth is your best friend when it comes to cleaning. Wipe away the accumulated dust and grime, and your classic clip fan will be as good as new.



Regularly servicing your clip fans is a small effort with significant benefits. A cleaner fan not only operates more efficiently but also contributes to a quieter and more balanced performance. So take a few minutes to clean your clip fans, and you'll be surprised at the difference it makes in maintaining a cool and comfortable environment throughout the summer.
