Light Dimmer to Adjust Spark Gap Fan?



I've heard that you can't use a light dimmer on a Tesla coil because
they can't handle inductive loads.  This makes sense, because that would
just be too easy.

What I'm wondering is whether I can use a light dimmer on the fan
cooling my spark gap.  I mean, a fan isn't nearly as electrically
complicated as a Tesla coil, and I'm always looking for budget friendly
solutions.

Thanks,
Adam
