The stand fan is one of the most common cooling appliances you’ll find in many homes, offices, and business establishments. It continues to be important in the UAE for providing instant, reliable, and efficient cooling for any space. However, you have to be careful when buying a stand fan in the UAE, as not all models may be for you in terms of size, cost, and long-term value. To save you from the guesswork, here are some of the vital features you should consider while shopping for stand fans:

Size

Consider the physical space that the fan will occupy. Determine the blade sweep and the fan’s height. Sweep is the diameter of the circle made when the fan spins, and the sweep size and height must be suitable for the room where you’ll use the fan.

Air delivery and speed

A stand fan in the UAE should offer powerful air delivery for a stronger breeze. That said, the efficiency depends on the size of the space to be cooled and the speed of rotation. The faster the fan spins, the faster it can cool. Some stand fans offer a 30-speed air volume control and three wind modes, such as the sleeping, normal and natural breeze.

Oscillation

Look for a stand fan with 3D oscillation angles, so it can oscillate vertically or horizontally. Consider the angle of oscillation, too. It should be up to 80 degrees, horizontal and vertical, and automatic.

Versatility

Consider an adjustable height stand fan in the UAE, with a timer for convenient use and energy savings. It should have a remote control, too, so you can adjust the settings even without coming near it.

Noise factor

Check if the stand fan in the UAE works quietly, even on the highest setting. You’ll want your fan to have low operational noise with an efficient BLDC motor that can help with that.

Special features

Some features may offer more convenience in using the stand fan. For instance, it could be rechargeable and has an LED light and USB port. Or it could have a touch control panel.

You can also buy it from any electronics retailer in UAE or your nearest National Store, also available on Noon.com or Amazon.ae.
