Features
WHAT IS AN AIR CIRCULATOR?
Traditional fans will move air that is directly in contact with them, pulling air from behind to the front, with the benefit of cooling being felt only when directly facing you. Usually traditional fans are only used during the warmer months. Air circulators on the other hand, work to keep all air in a room in motion, moving around constantly and creating an air circulation pattern that will make the whole room more comfortable. By using a 3D air circulation, your Breville air circulator ensures constant movement of the air in the room, reducing cold and warm spots that are found in many rooms. By circulating both stale indoor air and fresh outdoor air (from open windows), Breville air circulators also work on improving ventilation.
The Breville pedestal air circulator is perfect to use all year round, as it regulates temperature, clears stuffy air and creates a safe environment for the whole family.
WHERE TO POSITION YOUR AIR CIRCULATOR
WARMER MONTHS:
Cool air tends to sink to the floor. During warm weather, point the air circulator facing towards a wall on high speed, angled halfway between the ceiling and floor. The circulator will efficiently cool the room down by forcing the cool air to move, creating air circulation patterns. When using an air conditioner, point the air circulator from the back of the room towards the bottom of the air conditioner at a 30° angle to intensify the cool air and distribute the cool air faster and more efficiently around the room. Use the horizontal oscillation for even better distribution.
COOLER MONTHS:
Warm air naturally rises towards the ceiling. When using a heater, the warm air produced will move up. Point the air circulator fan up at a 90° angle. By pointing the air circulator upwards, the hot air will circulate with the cooler air near the floor, resulting in better distribution of room temperature.
Assembly
BEFORE FIRST USE
Before using your Breville pedestal air circulator for the first time, remove all packaging material and promotional labels. Check for any missing or damaged parts as per the components list.
