what is a hybrid fan
1114108
A hybrid fan is a tower (tall-vertical) fan that instead on using a rotating vertical blade within the tower to create airflow, uses a horizontal fan in the base to force air up and out of the tower. If you look at the base of this model fan, you can notice the circular housing that holds the horizontal fan blade and motor. The result of this style of fan is a MUCH higher air-flow output. The only down side is a slightly louder fan. It may not be the best choice if used in a bedroom, unless you appreciate the fan "noise". This fan works excellent in a larger room and really moves the air well.

Uses blades like a normal fan, but as a tower. Conceptually this fan delivers more airflow per less energy than your standard bladed fan. I have this fan, and I have run it a ton over the last year here in AZ. I highly recommend it, very powerful!

It uses a squirrel cage blower Broan 99020144 SQUIRREL CAGE BLOWER WHITE to blow the air up and out through the vertical housing and grille. Lasko says it results in 30% more air delivery than standard tower fans and has maximum power in a space saving design. Having owned one,I agree with the first statement but this is not smaller than other tower fans;in fact it is 12 or 13 inches wide at its widest.

My understanding is that it is a blend of a traditional tower-type fan with a floor blower. This is a great fan. Very powerful, but very quite on it's lower settings. It you really want the air to flow, turn it on high. Best portable fan I have bought. Better than the Dyson...

I really do not know what it is. I have had the replacement fan assembly installed for quite a while. It gets a thorough workout everyday. I have no complaints.

That I can't answer, but I can tell you NOT to purchase this fan. It came all broken and is for the most part plastic. Very cheap. Try this fan. I purchased it after the cheap one arrived: GeekTEK USB Retro 4" Mini Desktop Fan - Assorted Colors

It comes with two 120mm fans, one is on the top and the other is in the back. All other fan locations are for optional fans.

You are probably talking about a standard Box fan, I have 2 of them myself. It's sort of like the difference between a lawnmower and a car. The standard box fan is very small and weak compared to this fan. This fan is huge, the type of fan you'd see in a warehouse, and it's massively more powerful than a box fan. It moves huge volumes of air, but be warned, it's very loud.

Yes, it is, plus has a remote and 3 speeds. I love this fan. Quiet and attractive. Takes up so much less room than those old fans on a stand. Great value for the price! Definitely recommend it.

The fan has a pull chain for on/off and speed, also a toggle switch for direction reverse. Most all of the Hunter fans can go wall control or pull chain, unlike Casa Blanca fans.

I use this fan for both. It's really heavy duty. Never a problem with them. I own 10 of these. It really moves the air. I hopes this helps.

The fan has three speed settings, which have considerably different noise levels. One of them might be "just right."

Either way is ok.For its size, the fan is not very powerful for either purpose of yours.

Fan that comes w/ the item, or better still, a closed loop water cooling systemsuch as those made by Corsair, Antec, and others

I have no idea. We had our fans for two summers. What I do know is they can be noisy at night. I found I do not want my feet cold with air blowing on them. Hope that helps.

Three speed switch. See pics of fans installed in our greenhouse at B & L Orchids on Facebook. Please like our page.

I'm not sure. Fan is poorly made and broke within 3 weeks of purchase. Fan is made of cheap plastic and the wires are held in place with a little bit of glue. Fan isn't easy to take apart. It has made it's way to the trash

Dont have a clue why its called a hybrid,I just know it works.Recently bought one for my father and he loves it.We cool the first floor with a large window unit and the fan really helps cool the rooms at the other end of the house.

It is just an electric fan, like electric fans that have been in use for several decades. It circulates air by sucking it in the back and blowing it out the front. The thing I find appealing about this particular design is that it puts out more air flow than fans twice its size. This makes it easy to position it where it has the best effect. I have three and I'm thinking about buying a forth one. I also have one of the small ones that you can put right next to you on your desk or nightstand. I use fans a lot. I am a long-term conservationist and I avoid using the air conditioner unless the temperature gets above 95F because they use up a tremendous amount of electricity.
