OP..
I sleep with the TV and fan on. Is it a need? Maybe? I guess I am used to it.
As far as recommendations are concerned, I don't think there is any particular mechanism you need per se, but if you are used to sleeping with a fan on, then use a any fan. If TV being on does the trick, then use that. If a radio helps, then have the radio on to some quite storm music or jazz or whatever music you think is boring.
