If you’re new to the world of air conditioning, you might be wondering about the difference between a tower fan and a stand (pedestal) fan. Both of these types of fans come in various styles and sizes, so you’ll want to take your time deciding which type is right for you. You can learn more about them below.
Tower Fans vs Stand (Pedestal) Fans
A big difference between these two types of fans is the base. With tower fans, you have a single unmovable base, while most pedestal fans rest on a round pedestal. Other than that, they are very similar. They both feature blades that spin around a central axis, and both can be used to cool down rooms. However, pedestal fans have a larger footprint, which means they can cover a bigger area.
1- Directional Options
Stand fans sit atop rotating bases. They allow for maximum control over which side the air blows. Most pedastal models allow for directional controls along multiple axes, including top, bottom, left, and right; tower fans, on the other, can usually rotate to a degree but will lack much control. If you enjoy changing up the direction of your fans, go with a pedestals.
2-Aesthetics and size
Stands are older style appliances,they are big, round, and generally unattractive when placed in contemporary homes (though everything is relative). Tower fans are newer styles, so they are sleek and also small, making them easy to put just about anywhere you need a breeze. Pedestal Fans are large and can’t quite fit into tight spaces. You’ll need room for that round bases.
3-Cleaning
Stand fans have an open chassis of sorts, making it easier to get inside to give them a thorough clean. Tower fans require you take apart the entire exterior, so you can reach every blade to give them a scrubbing. In other words, pedestal fans are easier to keep clean and maintain.
4-Cost
There is no way to avoid this. Tower fans feature more modern styles, and as such are more expensive when compared with pedestal fans.
Combining the information above, I recommend two popular products, the vertical fan and the tower fan, to everyone. Both price and performance are great.
These two fans are great for keeping cool in the summer heat. The 16″ oscillating fan has a strong wind setting and a night light, making it perfect for use in a bedroom.
The 29″ tower fan has a 120 minute timer and oscillates to cool a larger area. Both fans are sure to keep you cool and comfortable all summer long.
