This is the pedestal fan that uses technology found in jet engines to generate a soothing air stream without any blades. The bladeless fan produces a smooth, uninterrupted stream of air, unlike typical fan blades that "chop" air into uneven, intermittent breezes. A turbine inside the base draws in air and propels it up to the loop amplifier. Air is expelled through a 1-mm slot along the circumference of the loop amplifier and across a 16º airfoil-shaped ramp, resulting in 15X more air velocity. The fan draws air from behind and along its sides into the air stream and produces a smooth, uninterrupted stream of air, unlike typical fan blades that "chop" air into uneven, intermittent breezes. A dial allows smooth, continuous adjustment of air velocity. The fan oscillates 80º, tilts 20º up or down, and its height adjusts from 46 3/4"-55 1/2". Includes a remote control and a 6 1/2'-long cord. 11" Diam base. (9 1/2 lbs.)
