Pedestaltuulettimet, known in English as pedestal fans, are a type of portable electric fan. They are characterized by a tall stand, or pedestal, that elevates the fan head, allowing for better air circulation throughout a room. This design makes them particularly useful for directing airflow over a wider area or towards seated or standing individuals.

The construction of a pedestal fan typically includes a sturdy base for stability, the adjustable pedestal itself, and a fan head. The fan head usually contains a motor that drives a set of blades, enclosed within a protective grille. Many models offer oscillation, which allows the fan head to rotate back and forth, distributing air to a larger area. The height of the pedestal is often adjustable, enabling users to customize the fan's position to their needs.

Pedestal fans are commonly used in homes and offices as a supplemental cooling solution. They are an energy-efficient alternative to air conditioning in milder weather or when full room cooling is not required. Their portability allows them to be easily moved from room to room as needed. Different models vary in size, power, and features such as remote control operation and timer functions. Maintenance generally involves cleaning the fan blades and grille to ensure optimal performance.
