75W is a lot of heat to be pumping out all the time. In a closed room that can heat it up a lot. Especially in modern German homes with their excellent isolation and triple glazing.
And larger fans can easily go up around 100W or more. Sure it isn’t a lot compared to a 3000W space heater. But it isn’t exactly nothing either. And given it would be running for a long time, that energy adds up.

75W is not a lot of heat. The average human produces about 100W at rest. So you’re essentially claiming:
“Putting one person in a room, at rest, will heat it up a lot.”

Except it doesn’t because heat transfers out of a room over time, even through walls and triple glazed windows.
Time to give your receipts, bot.
