{"title":"Tower Fans","description":"\u003cp\u003eA tower fan is a tall, slim fan that draws air in through a vertical cylinder and blows it out of a narrow grille, usually with oscillation. It suits bedrooms, offices and apartments where floor space is tight, though most move less air than a pedestal fan of similar price.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eWhat to compare\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eHeight: 36 to 48 inches is common.

They usually move less air than a pedestal or box fan at the same price, so they suit smaller rooms and personal cooling. For maximum airflow, a pedestal fan or air circulator is better.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow do I clean a tower fan?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnplug it and vacuum the intake and outlet grilles with a brush attachment, or use compressed air to blow dust out. Some models have a removable rear panel for wiping the blower inside. Clean every few weeks during heavy use, since dust buildup reduces airflow and can increase noise.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo tower fans use a lot of electricity?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost tower fans use about 30 to 100 watts depending on size and speed, much less than an air conditioner. Running one overnight costs only a few cents in most US areas. Check the wattage on the label and multiply by hours and your electricity rate for an estimate.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/homesupplieshub.com\/collections\/tower-fans.oembed","provider":"Home Supplies Hub USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
