- Exhale Fan - World's First Truly Bladeless Ceiling Fan.
For over 100 years, ceiling fan manufacturers have yet to innovate when it comes to the blades on their fans. Although they continue to create interesting design with their products, there have been no real changes in the way they move air.
The Exhale™ Fan breaks convention. Inspiration from the 19th century inventor, Nikola Tesla led our innovation. Our bladeless fan utilizes the science of laminar flow. This translates into an uninterrupted 360° airflow, generating less noise and bringing pure comfort to any room. The gentle vortex that is created transforms your space, just like a spring breeze.
Our company is introducing the Exhale™ fan to the market to meet the need of additional comfort as well as appeal to the sophisticated designer in all of us.

In India conditions where regular fan blades get dirty in couple of weeks and require cleaning , I have following questions.
1. How to clean this fan
2. As per the air circulation shown in video , will it not do accumulation of dirt on ceiling which in my view will be a very difficult task to keep clean
Say hi to the spider from the corner in the air stream 🤣🤣
You took an automotive squirrel cage and made it into a house fan... lol
I have one. Don't waste your money. It doesn't move much air and you'll be much happier with a traditional fan. Also, read the reviews of this company at the BBB website.
I think its amazing what people come up with by applying the concepts that the great minds of our past developed. By the way... just looked at their website, it had this little diddy, "Studying the science surrounding Nikola Tesla's bladeless turbines led me to a breakthrough that I knew was the perfect solution to the problem that was plaguing my thoughts." I guess Tesla does get his credit, which is a rarity.
Where are you guys in Chennai? Looking forward to buy this
While bladed fans produce a turbulent airflow and rely on brute force to mix the air. The Exhale fan has a smooth uniform rotating airflow that creates a gentle vortex to evenly homogenize and stabilize the air.
I didn't know that Ron Thomas from Matchbox 20 had started making ceiling fans. Good for him.
Was thinking blink 182 lol
Nah, I need my powerful down-blowing ceiling fan XD...
Kat TheFanEnthusiast Well, no one’s putting a gun to your fucking head to buy this fan!
@@Clankillas You may have commented this a year ago, but mate, it was just a joke
Never seen one in action - but - as an apartment dweller this looks really good for small rooms and low ceilings.
how do you clean this thing?
Bring in a garden hose and spray it while it's running.
Exactly my thought!
Good question
needs a light
damn, i can only like the comment once.
it has a fucking light now
Well damn, they were 2 years late lol
so what you have done it better late than never
You can get ones with lights
It's a Tesla turbine
I've never seen this before now, it seems great!
Yes, finally a practical use of this invention.
You should throw flour into the fan so we can get a different perspective of how the air moves.
Congratz guys, you got featured on theAwesomer!!!! Nice Fan btw!
WHAT is the Advantage to this design? What is the CFM and sound level at any particular CFM movement of air?
Yup, needs to come with light/s and it would be PERFECT
Yeah!
There are ones that come with lights
I've had Dyson's bladeless floor fan for years. I paid $300 for it - years ago. Its awesome. But these ceiling ones would be perfect for my bedrooms.
Full speed CFM is 3,186 at 34 watts (93.7 CFM/watt). Is also comes with a 6 speed wireless remote to dial in your preferred airflow. It is effective in rooms up to 20'x20'.
throw in a completey unique LEDlight kit
Congrats on getting funded, I cant wait to get one!
If you like cleaning ceiling fans you'll love this because the dust on surface area is 5 to 10 fold depending on how many spining blades there are. I'm estimating 5 to 10 ?
Thumbs up from india🇮🇳👍👍
Wow 👌👌👌 New Innovatieve
I kind of feel bad saying this, but I would buy this without question if it were made by Dyson.
Lol... Hey a reputation goes a long way.
+Spectator Mag true
ha ha so true
It is cool product which is intelesting and cool.
Nice video.
I see 2 things missing.. The fan isn't reverseable for downdraft, and only operates like a standard ceiling fan stuck on updraft. And there is no light kit, meaning we would have to use table lamps, tall lamps, or some other form of lighting.
Downlights
Nikola Tesla would like his designs back. Lmao
i love fans.
um.. won't that thing be a hassle to clean. seems like harder work than cleaning a regular ceiling fan. Even if it's efficient and uses new technology, the fan still has to be home friendly i.e easy to clean and safe.
peterpiperdiedharper It’s idiots like you who will forgo the technological advance mess of this device only two compare it to how easy it is to clean it, when you probably have never cleaned your own fucking fans in years!
@@Clankillas whoa dude chill out.
What if you have sloped ceilings
Ceiling fans use between 12-120 watts running at high speed. The Exhale fan uses a high efficiency DC motor (34 watts at high speed)
Fan #1 - Super Efficient Ceiling Fan at 12 Watts = $12.61 per year
Fan #2 - Average Ceiling Fan at 60 Watts = $63.07 per year
Fan #3 - More Powerful Ceiling Fan at 120 Watts = $126.14 per year

Exhale Fans
Need to watch and know the function of the product more than you speaking thanks very cool fan
We are currently funding our project at Indiegogo, a popular crowd-funding website. Although the tooling is nearing completion, we are using the funds from Indiegogo to purchase raw materials to start manufacturing in Q1 2013.
I funded a generous bit to your project back in 2012 I'm so sad there where no perks or shares available now that I'm broke I wish to buy one someday
Although it doesn't look like a bladed ceiling fan it does still have blades, they're just circular discs. The type of blade is unique and less noisy but the basic mechanics are the same as a conventional fan, that is spinning something to move air, so I cannot see how the $500+ price is justified... plus there's no option for a light.
There is an option for a light now
Brad K nothing of this fan moves outside of its case. You talk about blades when the idea is how it moves the air differently than other fans which only forced to around the room making you think that you’re being called. The reason they say that the van has no blades is because of fans other than this tape come with blades which only push air around. This fanUses a technique which draws the air into it and then it moves the van along the ceiling down towards the walls which actually calls the fan runs a lot better than typical Fans which only give you the illusion of coolness by forcing air around you.
maybe no ruined fan when one of the kids puts something in a normal blade path.
for me with room with bunk beds, its great
I hate fans with lights. This is perfect design for dark rooms.
Fans with light ..... disgusting 🙁
My logic says, being a vulcan, this fan will take all the dust in the room and get it in circulation as shown on your vortex demonstration videos. I like the idea, but it seem this machine is a dust spreader. How do you answer to that?
Just like any other ceiling fan?
lol it´s not a fan, it´s a dust gathering machine....couldn´t put my finger on it !!!
+soweedotcom The dust catches on the blades on a normal fan.
+Fixno1 use a Vaccum and clean your floors and room? That might be an option! :/
Is it compatible with google home and alexa, if not it's not something I want to pay $600+ for. It's an awesome fan, love the design, but I don't want a fan where I can't change the LED out and isn't compatible with home automation software. I don't want a remote, I want to use my phone to turn it on/off, speed it up/down, etc. I want to be able to program it to my wireless google home switches etc etc.
is it true that you can only mount this fan on a flat ceiling? and does it come with light?
1. Does it pull air in from the side and push it down?
2. Why is it so small?
no point just being fanciful...
be specific. . how many cubic m3 per min of air can it delivr.
is it really strong? i need lot of ventilation
What makes this type of design better than regular ceiling fans with a "reverse" mode?
I need that in my kitchen. I’ll toss the vegetables in the air & have instant salad.
The LUMIO Bladeless Ceiling Fan might be a better alternative with light. EBay is selling them for &198 free shipping.
I would want a 2 direction fan.
I wonder if this is sold in Africa/Nigeria and if it will work perfectly with our weather.
A 5 second google search would tell you that airflow is less turbulent, thus energy efficiency and airflow speed should be better.
How does the blades float in the air? Are there magnets? or some invisible support I cannot see?
Hey are these going to be available in Australia?
+Glenn Jordan Yes! I want TWO (x2)! But, I love in Sydney, Australia.
We'd be interested too. We're in NSW.
lol i'd buy one if it had a light
@@H31MU7 there are ones that come with lights
Great idea! Great design! I would surely buy it.
Have you guys thought of creating one with a light?
Ah, so it is not as much about making the air flow close to the ceiling and down the walls, but about how smooth that wind is?
Make it more stylish with different shapes and sizes. It means sense if u have low ceiling house and it is less dangerous than those sharp blade fan
Put your hands down
Why is this so expensive? It seems like its juts a spinning discs with a motor attached with a controller. I understand that R&D is expansive but if you lowered your price to 200 to 300 you would probably sell more units and make back your R&D costs faster.
Micim987 Original The reason the price is so expensive is to compensate for the research and development put into it to produce these fans. It’s funny how ignorant people like you always think that someone who invents or Designs something can just drop the price as if the price has nothing to do with them recouping their investments. That’s how dumb people think and they are also the ones to think that money grows on trees. Stick to your old regular ass fans and leave these people alone because it’s not for people like you to have something as advanced as this idea is.
@@Clankillas As an inventor, I was gong to explain how inventions and economics work, but I'd have to start at zero to explain that to you. So I wont bother. The OP has a valid point.
basically a centrifugal pump for air isn't it
I want one!!
yes i like it with a light fixture some LED bright white light
Cool. Good for you guys!
Have a website to order ?
Where in a store or home stores can I see this working? I bought a new home in SC and it has lights. I just need a fan and this looks like it would be awesome with my tey ceiling. You won’t notice it but be cool at night
so is it making any noise? do you got audio samples while its running or at least some db figures
is this still effective if there are dropped ceilings or coves on the sides?
Dust will collect on the leading edge of any fan over time. Using the brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner is the easiest way to remove this buildup, but it can be wiped clean with a soft cloth as well.
What is the space between the discs? would it allow easy cleaning with the vacuum brush head? Are the discs sturdy? Meaning they won't be affected (bent) by either cleaning process?
Can it be use in the winter by moving air the opposite way?
NO. The discs are slinging air out with centrifugal force.
If you put a ball on a string and spin it around the ball stretches the string no matter which way you spin it.
i would like to see a tower fan made to mount horizontally on the ceiling.
In other words take a regular tower fan. Tip it over 90 degrees to lay on the floor.
Now lift it up to the ceiling and mount it.
It would probably take some slight redesign of the tower fan. Though not much.
It could be about 3 to 5 feet long. It would pump a great deal of air down. Tower fans are very efficient and quiet.
And the big advantage is if you inadvertently stuck your hand up in the air it wouldn't get chopped off like with a conventional ceiling fan. So it would be safe for low ceilings.
Imagine a 2 foot square box about 4 inches deep. And it contains perhaps four tower fans. And of course around the edges of the box, LED lighting. It could put out a lot of air. And it would be safe in a kids room. It would be cheap.
It already operates in winter mode: pulling air upward.
It pushes the air to the side of the wall, which is the same for regular ceiling fans on updraft.
Are these fans on the market now ? Where can I purchase it ?
this is a very good job
I am looking for 1 or 2 nice ceiling fans with no blades. Is it effective for a room with 2 story high ceiling? Will it work well with 2 Exhale fans side by side (like an infinity sign) for a longer room?
What if I want to sit in the middle of the room and not stick myself to the wall??? Will I still feel the air???
You lost me when I noticed the hoop earrings ...
Step 3: Get a Thank You from the goofy looking guy in the video. "Thanks" -Nik
Watch out Dyson has a new model .. Bladeless fan with lighting
wouldn't this push hot air throughout the room? this would be great for winter, but what about summer?
Good idea
wow thats awesome, hey i also wondered if there was going to be something like this
Where can buy ??
Thank you
If only it had a light.
The new production model DOES have a LED lighting! exhalefans.com
Skip Stein don’t waste your time on people like this. He’s a fucking idiot looking for a reason to show negativity on things. His profile is only designed for trolling, as he has no content which is why people start YT accounts, to show videos. This is what trolls do, they start an account on a social media only to bash people and attack them to bring attention to themselves. When this idea was being conceived @Nik had already made the development for the attachment of the LED light. He just had to sell his remaining stock of the idea because he wanted to do other things and now that he is no longer a part of Exhale Fans, they have been dragging their asses like molasses. I bought a nice purple one when @Nik was running things and was happy as hell. Now 3 years later I have been waiting for exactly 2 years for this company to make them available, and they have not. Not only that, but they have also taken away the ability to have Color options. So now they have fans only in white with the LED attachments, but they have “yet to produce any” of those. They’ve been. Out of stock every since @Nik left! @Nik’s idea of designing this type of fan was brilliant and I just wish he was still a part of the company. They literally swapped the idea of having these fans in colors, for making the LED attachment - when they were supposed to just add the LED attachment to the colored optioned fans.
he looks like the classic used cars salesman
How it is better than ceiling fan with blades?
yes thats a good idea
Is it hard to clean the fan?
What about dust bro
Now make one with a built-in strobe lights
1:41 : Dude, those are technically blades.
Thin strips. Why are razor blades called "blades"?
Is it available in India ?
I bet you could find a way to use this as thing against violence, cause it's blade-less, and blades are like-you know what I mean
What are the dimensions and how much does it cool a room?
The Exhale fan does not use a squirrel cage blower or any type of blade. The discs are the only thing moving the air. If you put a drop of water on a plate and spun the plate, the drop of water would fly off the edge. The same is true for the Exhale, air molecules stick to the surface of the discs and when spun they fly off the edge. There are very small spacers used to separate the discs, but they are round and do not add to the airflow. We would be very happy to ship to South Korea.
He looks like Howie Mandel!
how do you clean it?
Looks like a kmart ceiling fan.
It's a Tesla Turbine.
Where can I buy the Dust cover?
Wouldn't this just push dirt up toward the ceiling ?
is it now reality or still preproduction, I'm interested in getting one if the price is right & it comes with 5 yrs warranty on parts & labour
Their product is inferior. It took 8 months for mine to arrive and it's basically a piece of crap. Please read the reviews at BBB. DON'T DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY.
Scott Cornelius thank you for the heads up :)
Available now on Indiegogo, 50% off for early birds.
Whys it so wobbly
it will be difficult to clean the dust in between the blades
why not use a radial airflow fan instead
As a tall person who has had his hands chopped by ceiling fans by accident. My first reaction was, shut up and take my money!!!
How tall are you?
