Benefits:
* No blades
* No buffeting
* Safe
* Easy to clean
The Air Multiplier delivers a constant stream of smooth air. No blades. No buffeting.
Conventional fans have blades, which chop the air before it hits you, causing unpleasant buffeting. This fan has no blades. Instead, it uses Air Multiplier technology to amplify air 15 times, generating up to 330 litres of smooth, uninterrupted air every second. No blades. No buffeting.
How it works
The air that travels through the Air Multiplier is multiplied 15 times giving a smooth, unbuffetted air flow.
1) Up to 27 litres of air per second is drawn in by an energy efficient, brushless motor. A combination of the technologies used in turbochargers and jet engines generates a powerful flow of air.
2) Airflow is accelerated though an annular aperture. It passes over a 16° airfoil-shaped ramp, which channels it's direction.
3) Air behind the Air Multiplier is drawn into the airflow, through a process known as inducement.
4) Air around the machine is also drawn into the airflow, through a process known as entrainment, amplifying it 15 times. The resulting airflow is smooth and constant, with no unpleasant buffeting.
The Air Multiplier fan features
Smooth airflow
The blades on conventional fans cause unpleasant buffeting because they chop the air. Air Multiplier technology gives an uninterrupted stream of air.
Safe
There are no fast-spinning blades on the Air Multiplier, so it's safe and doesn't need to have a grille.
Easy to clean
Because there are no awkward grilles to disassemble and put back, the Air Multiplier is easy to clean. Just wipe the loop amplifier with a cloth.
Touch - tilt - pivots on its own center of gravity
The motor is positioned in the base rather than at the top, which allows the Air Multiplier to pivot on its own center of gravity for easy touch-tilt. So it's not top-heavy and cumbersome like other fans.
Dimmer-switch control
Unlike conventional fans, which have a few settings to adjust power, the airflow generated by the Air Multiplier can be adjusted at the turn of a dial to deliver precisely the amount you want.
Smooth oscillation
To oscillate a conventional fan you have to hold it steady, pull the toggle and watch it judder. The Air Multiplier oscillates 90º at the touch of a button.

The problem with conventional fans
Electric fans hadn't changed much since they were invented in 1882. Grilles have been added. Materials are different. Buttons have popped up. But the fundamental problem remains the same - their blades chop the air. And choppy air causes annoying and uncomfortable buffeting. Take out the blades, and the buffeting stops.
