What is an Oscillating Fan?

An oscillating fan moves back and forth on an axis, pushing air in every direction it faces. This is especially beneficial in large rooms, allowing you to circulate a refreshing breeze with just one unit. Oscillating fans come in various types, including tower fans, pedestal fans and table fans, each designed to suit different spaces and cooling needs.

Types of Household Fans

Ace has a great selection of fans for your home, from large models to compact and portable options. Take a look at our different fan types below.

Box Fans

Box fans, or floor fans, are reliable for everyday use. Their square or rectangular shape fits in windows or on the floor, offering optimal and consistent airflow. Easily portable despite a sturdy frame and large circular blade, they are a dependable choice for cooling or air circulation.

Drum Fans

These large and circular industrial fans are built for heavy-duty applications and can withstand outdoor environments. Drum fans can be stationary or wheeled for easy transport.

Desk Fans

A compact tabletop fan is a great option to add a cool breeze to your workspace. You can find both oscillating and non-oscillating designs. Plus, they are portable, allowing you to move them from room to room.

Tower Fans

Ideal for corners and tight spaces, tower fans have an elongated design that fits seamlessly in any home. They provide vertical airflow and are also available in oscillating styles for added comfort.

Pedestal Fans

These fans feature a large circular head mounted on an elevated base, making it easy to cool higher areas like desks and beds. Most models also oscillate to cover a wider area.

Window Fans

Window fans fit snugly into your window frame and don't require special installation. They pull in cool air from outdoors, perfect for refreshing your home with cooler, fresher air.

How to Choose the Right House Fan

Whether you need light air circulation or a strong wind, Ace has the fans that suit your needs. Here are some important factors to consider.

Fan Size and Shape

For larger spaces without a ceiling fan, choose a bigger, more powerful fan, such as a box or drum fan, to circulate air effectively. A slim, portable tower fan is perfect for smaller rooms like bedrooms or offices. For even distribution, consider oscillating fan models.

Fan Power Level and Speed

Explore single-speed and high-velocity fans for a steady breeze, or opt for multi-speed options to adjust airflow. Desk and pedestal fans are convenient and space-saving for light air circulation.

Electrical Access

Most electric fans come with power cords for easy access to outlets, providing strong, consistent power. For hard-to-reach areas, consider an extension cord for corded fans, or choose cordless options like our USB fans from brands like Craftsman for versatile cooling wherever needed.
