pedestal fan

Tall floor blower

A pedestal fan is an electric fan mounted on an adjustable vertical stand, typically three to four feet tall, allowing it to blow air at standing or sitting height.

The height is usually adjustable, and the fan head often oscillates to distribute air across a room.

We set up a pedestal fan in the living room during the heat wave.
