Only what touches your heart. Quiet like a library even though it has a large air volume *“Circulation Fan (EF-E952W)” and “Circulation Fan 3D (EF-E951W)” released
**For EF-E951W, air volume is 8 or less, and for EF-E952, air volume is 6 or less. *
Twin Bird Co., Ltd. (President: Shigeaki Nomizu, Headquarters: Tsubame City, Niigata Prefecture) is the “Circulation Fan (EF-E952W)”. Two models of “Circulation Fan 3D (EF-E951W)” are scheduled to be released on April 11, 2024.
In recent years, the penetration rate of air conditioners has exceeded 90%. On the other hand, given the soaring electricity costs, electric fans are still in demand as a cheaper alternative to air conditioners. Additionally, there is a growing trend to save on electricity bills by using air conditioners and circulators together, and demand is increasing for creating comfortable spaces that utilize not only air conditioners but also fans and circulators.
However, when you own a fan and a circulator, you need space to install and store them, which creates a sense of pressure in your living space. Additionally, some people have complained that conventional fans with circulator functions do not feel comfortable when exposed to direct wind.
Therefore, we reviewed the design of the blades and developed a “circulation mode fan” that is comfortable even when showering and does not create a feeling of pressure on the living space.
The blades are newly developed “Excel Blade” in collaboration with Turbo Blade, a company that manufactures jet aircraft engines. Designed using the same concept as a jet engine, it is able to push out air efficiently, eliminating the need for oscillation, making it quiet and producing a large amount of air.
“Circulation fan” and “Circulation fan 3D” are
This electric fan is equipped with a circulation mode that can be used as a two-in-one fan for various lifestyle situations. It provides a comfortable space with a breeze that feels good even when directly bathed in it, and a large air volume that reduces uneven temperature inside the room.

*Circulation fan product features*
* “Excel Blade” designed with the same philosophy as a jet aircraft engine * The “Excel Blade” is approximately 30cm in diameter and consists of nine blades, making it quiet and producing a large amount of air. Together with Turboblade, a company that manufactures jet aircraft engines, we designed the circulator blades using the same philosophy as jet aircraft engines. By increasing the area of the blades as much as possible, we have adopted 9 blades to achieve a large air volume while minimizing wind noise and uneven wind. We aimed to keep the operating noise to less than 20 dB at the minimum air volume (10 m3/min) and 50 dB or less at the maximum air volume (50 m3/min), aiming for wind that does not become a noise in daily life.

* Circulate air between 8 tatami mats in circulation mode for approximately 50 seconds *2
“Excel Blade” can send a large amount of strong wind in one direction, making it possible to circulate air without the need for swinging like a ceiling fan. By running the unit for approximately 50 seconds*2 between 8 tatami mats, you can eliminate uneven indoor temperatures. This reduces the discomfort that often occurs when using air conditioning or heating, such as feeling like only your feet are cold and only your upper body is hot.
In addition, the air volume can be precisely adjusted in 10 steps, so you can operate at your preferred air volume.
*2 According to our research:
[Test conditions] Room size is 8 tatami mats, operating at maximum air volume (circulation mode). In addition, we recommend continuous operation to keep the air agitated.
*Easy to use regardless of the season*
Equipped with a circulation mode, it can be used in conjunction with an air conditioner or for ventilation, regardless of the season. Electricity costs can be reduced to approximately 0.04 yen*3 for one hour of operation, and approximately 9.6 yen*3 for one month*4. In addition, the front guard, blades, and rear guard can be washed with water*5 for hygienic use.

When operating at air volume 1 for 8 hours a day for 30 days. *5 After washing, wipe off any water droplets and dry before use.
*Circulation fan 3D product features*
*3D oscillation that evenly distributes wind up, down, left and right* The 3D oscillation function of “Circulation Fan 3D” allows for automatic oscillation of up to 120 degrees left and right, as well as up to 100 degrees up and down at the same time, making it possible to blow air over a wide area.
Even if you are in different parts of the same room or at different heights such as on the carpet or sofa, a pleasant breeze will flow throughout the room and make you feel comfortable.
Additionally, the combination of circulation mode and 3D oscillation function is convenient for drying clothes.
The large air volume of the circulation mode reaches the clothes directly with the 3D oscillation function, drying the clothes faster than when drying naturally.
In addition to the 8-hour auto-off timer, you can choose from 1/2/4/6 hour off timers, which automatically turn off when you go out, so you can use it without wasting time.
This reduces the stress of spending long periods of time in the same space as laundry that is being dried indoors, such as during the rainy season and pollen season.
*The features other than the automatic vertical swing are the same as the “circulation fan.” *
