The number of blades that a pedestal fan has determines the amount of air that it circulates. Five-blade fans move higher volumes of air more quickly and efficiently, but they are louder and require more energy to operate. Three-blade fans move smaller volumes of air than five-blade fans, but they are quieter and more energy-efficient.
Pedestal fans typically use 60 to 100 watts of electricity per hour.
Our pedestal fans are designed to be used both indoors and outdoors. However, to avoid electrical fires or other disasters, make sure that you do not leave them running unattended for extended periods of time.
