Table fan, pedestal fan and wall-mounted fan

Table Fans

Table fans are compact and portable, making them ideal for use in various rooms. They are easy to move around and can be placed on any flat surface. Table fans are typically quieter and more energy-efficient than larger fans, making them suitable for bedrooms, offices, and small living areas. They also come with adjustable settings to control the speed and direction of airflow.

Pedestal Fans

Pedestal fans are known for their height and oscillation features. These fans are perfect for larger rooms as they can distribute air across a wider area. Pedestal fans are also adjustable in height, allowing you to direct airflow precisely where it is needed. They are generally more powerful than table fans and come with multiple speed settings for customised comfort.

Wall-mounted Fans

Wall-mounted fans are great for saving floor space and ensuring effective air circulation. These fans are installed on the wall, making them ideal for rooms with limited floor space or areas that require constant airflow, such as kitchens and garages. Wall-mounted fans are usually more powerful and durable, with options for remote control and oscillation for added convenience.

Frequently asked questions

Which is better: a wall fan or a pedestal fan?
The choice between a wall fan and a pedestal fan depends on your space and airflow needs. Wall fans save floor space and are ideal for fixed areas, while pedestal fans offer adjustable height and oscillation for flexible use in larger rooms.
Are wall mounted fans good?
Yes, wall-mounted fans are good for areas with limited floor space and where continuous airflow is needed. They are powerful, save floor space, and can often be controlled remotely for convenience.
Is a pedestal fan better than a ceiling fan?
A pedestal fan is more flexible than a ceiling fan as it can be moved and adjusted. However, ceiling fans cover a wider area and are generally more energy-efficient for whole-room cooling.
How much electricity does a pedestal fan use?
A pedestal fan typically uses between 50 to 70 watts of electricity per hour, depending on the model and speed settings.
