Comment on if I rip a fart, will putting a fan facing out the window or facing in from the window clear the stink out faster of the room?

My window fan says air can be exchanged with a single window.

Best if the fan has two blades moving in different directions.

Air exchange will work with a fan blowing in or out only. Leave the louvers around the fan closed, close the room door and air has to escape through the window around the fan.

My room gets very chilly by morning doing this.

  Window fans have two sets of fan blades side by side. They can spin in opposite directions.

    so that air can flow in and out of different sides of the same window, instead of having to have two windows, one with air flowing in and the other with air flowing out
