Fans

Find the perfect breeze for your space with JB's fantastic range of fans! Featuring top brands like Philips, Dyson, and Breville, we’ve got everything you need to stay refreshed - from air-purifying to tower, desktop, box, fan heaters, and pedestal fans.

What is the best fan available in Australia?

Just like the diverse Australian climate, the “best” fan can vary depending on your specific needs, room size, and personal preferences. No worries. With JB’s extensive collection of fans, you won’t have a hard time finding the perfect breeze for your space. Selected from the world’s most trusted brands like Dyson, our collection includes:

  • Wall and Pedestal Fans: Perfect for targeted airflow, these fans are known for their versatility and ease of use.
  • Tower Fans: Ideal for compact spaces, tower fans offer functionality and style.
  • Desk Fans: Compact and portable, these fans are designed for personal use and are typically placed on desks or tables.
  • Box Fans: With their basic, box-like structure, box fans are energy-efficient and designed to fit in or against windows, on the floor, or on stable surfaces.
  • Floor Fans: Floor fans can be used in various settings, including homes, offices, workshops, and garages, providing effective cooling wherever needed.
  • Air Purifiers: Aside from providing ventilation, air purifiers also improve indoor air quality by removing contaminants from the air in a room. This makes them ideal for urban areas where air quality can be a concern.

Are bladeless fans better?

Bladeless fans offer several advantages. They are safer, as there are no spinning blades. This makes them a great choice for families with kids or pets. They're also easier to clean and often quieter. Many come with advanced features like air purifiers and remote controls.

However, they can be more expensive than traditional fans. So, while bladeless fans have benefits, whether they are "better" depends on your specific needs and budget.

No worries. Here at JB, we’ve got a huge collection of both traditional and bladeless fans. So you can find your perfect match, whether you’re fond of looking at rotating fan blades or a “fan”(pun intended) of bladeless fans.

Are pedestal fans better than tower fans?

Again, it depends on your needs. Pedestal fans are great for powerful, directed airflow. They're adjustable in height and often have strong oscillation. This makes them ideal for cooling larger areas.

Tower fans, on the other hand, are more compact and sleek. They fit well in smaller spaces and usually operate more quietly. They're good for consistent, gentle airflow in a room.

At the end of the day, it's all about what works best for your space and cooling preferences.

Is there a fan that makes no noise?

No fan is completely noiseless, but some are super quiet. These fans are designed to minimise sound, perfect for bedrooms or study areas.

Look for fans labelled as 'quiet' or 'silent'. Bladeless fans often fit this bill. They provide a smooth airflow with less noise. DC ceiling fans are also a good choice for quiet operation.

Remember, the level of noise can depend on the fan's speed setting, too. So, a fan on a lower setting will usually be quieter.

Where is the best place to put a fan to cool a room?

It depends on the outdoor temperature. If it’s cold outside, the best place to put it is near a window or an open door. This way, it can pull in fresh air from outside. If it's hotter outside, place it facing into the room. This helps circulate the air inside. Also, try positioning it across from where you'll be, like across the room. This creates a nice breeze straight towards you. And if you have two fans, use one to bring cool air in and the other to push hot air out. Simple but effective!
