Vornado Transom Air Circulator - Unboxing + Review

Enjoy my review of the new Vornado Transom Air Circulator!

[@woltergrant]

Thanks for taking your time to show this off. Only one so far. Helpful hint...your foam blocks are upside down when installed horizontally. If you flip them over those gaps will disappear at the top and a proper seal will be made.

[@ExpresswayJacob]

I love you😭

[@ScruffyNurfHerder]

Can anyone doing a window fan video just fuckin tell me if it cools down the room without being annoying or what

[@kensingtonwick]

These aren’t the droids you’re looking for.😂

[@bdawg7132]

Fruit cake bullshit is what this video is

[@jnicksnewstart]

Vornado definitely needs to make this for vertical installation as well. From what I can see, this is a first class product. I've had vernado products in the past and find them to be superior to almost everybody. What a lot of people don't realize is that most window fans use typical fan blades that you can see right through, especially when they're running. Make some useless for a bedroom or any privacy at all. I had a couple of fans years ago that used squirrel cage Wheels similar to this. They're perfect. You can't see through them whether the fan is on or off. They're extremely quiet, and if design properly very efficient. I had to rebuild my old ones a couple times simply because they stopped making them and there was nothing else like them on the market. Bravo, Vornado!

[@ragnaroker85]

First video I found with someone covering a vertical install. Great review, and definitely answered all my questions

[@divinitywilliams2012]

So can I do a vertical install

[@amiman23]

iD GET IT FOR A VERTICAL INSTALL AND THE AUTO DOOR TO HELP KEEP THE LIGHT OUT. NOBODY HAS THAT. THIS WAS A REALLY GOOD REVIEW OF FEATURES AND OPERATION. YOU ANSWERED ALL MY CONCERNS.

[@forrest00.1]

This was a very helpful review! I now have a better understanding of whether or not this fan would be a good fit for my space. Thank you!

[@Soundism-tk8ne]

For your sake I hope society doesn’t collapse. These are the people who don’t stand a chance.

[@debadams5602]

I saw this fan in Lowe’s and i’m thinking about getting it. Thank you!

[@ronny2971]

Hey, I got mine at bed bath and beyond. Used a 20% discount coupon. Mine was delivered, first one was lost while being delivered, believe it had to do with fires in California, origin of delivery. Second one came. I love mine 💜. If you haven't gotten your window fan yet , look for the coupon or sign up to bed bath and beyond.

[@debadams5602]

Thank you! I will check out Bed Bath & Beyond and order it with the coupon. Can’t. wait to try it.

[@edfrie]

Very helpful video but man you are a natural ASMR artist.

[@edfrie]

if you titled the video with "unintentional asmr" probably get a lot of hits

[@reneamaro8476]

I just received mine yesterday and you were right it didn't say it wasn't meant to be installed vertically, however I did see a KZbin of somebody who did and nobody mentioned that you were not supposed to. I ordered it and I installed it vertically anyway and it seems to be running fine. Although trying to make it where it doesn't fall out with a teeny bit of a challenge but I put a screw with a rubber fat thick washer and that is holding it in. Another thing they didn't mention is that the barcode is only located on the device if you want to connect your Alexa to it. I will have to take it out of the window to find the barcode, but most devices also have the barcode in the manual or on the box. This did not! Otherwise I wouldn't have to pull it out again just to reinstall it. I'm going to look for other ways to try and secure it better in the vertical window. It's ironic that you cannot install it vertically since most new windows today are vertical. Again I wish they would just post the barcode online so I wouldn't have to take it out again to install it on Alexa.

[@mrs.childers8333]

I live in the south most our homes don’t have windows that open side ways they are up and down. And the design is made like a window unit the window frame down on it helps lock it in.

[@bonnpoland]

5:16 totally answered my question. Thanks!!

[@seanmcguire7974]

I feel like this has some potential. If you have 2, on opposite ends, 1 exhaust n one bringing air in, it might help. But the price..

[@marcmele6416]

The window buffers are installed upside-down, turn them around for a better seal

[@sue8001]

Thank you for uploading your review!

[@tony27ortiz]

Thank you for the video. I'm planing to buy one and your video was very helpful .👌👍,

[@NoExitLoveNow]

I think you can put it in vertical, and in fact people do that. I think there are two issues. 1. You need to do more work to get it properly installed and stable. Also, horizontally, there is less chance of rain getting into the fan.

[@reneamaro8476]

You should have given more information about the fan, it works fantastic in the kitchen this is an update, especially when I'm cooking, it's great for blowing the air out which helps get rid of excess smoke and smells that linger from cooking certain foods. I just wish you were a little more thorough on the fan info itself like how to turn the timer off. I actually turned it on and I don't know how to turn it off.

[@MariaVelasquez-wz4cj]

I got this and the first day it cooled my room really quickly and I felt like I had AC in my room. I even couldn’t sleep because my room was so cold and I didn’t want to get up to turn it off to not lose my sleep because I’m very sensitive with my sleep. But I am like the third day using it, and I’m not sure if it’s the temperature outside that might be much warmer than the first day that I used the fan, but now I don’t feel like it’s cooling down my room as much as the first day. I do feel the air if I stand in front of the fan, but other than that, I don’t feel my room cooling down as much. I am using it vertical, so I’m not sure if I already messed it up within like two days of using it vertical or if this thing just got messed up within two days and has nothing to do with me using it vertical. I’m wondering, is it just supposed to be throwing air in and taking air out, or is it supposed to be cooling down the air like an AC does as I felt at the first day. Another reason why I thought that this could cool down the air as an AC is because you can lower the temperature as you want it to be as I understand. there is a temperature to show what your room temperature is at the moment. But there’s also another temperature button and you can turn that temperature down, but I am trying to follow the directions to turn it down and it seems like I’m turning it down as I press the buttons with my control, but when I check five minutes later, the temperature does not turn down. It’s still the same as I had it before pressing those buttons. Can anybody please answer my questions?

[@michaelkryszak5262]

It doesn't actually cool the air like an air conditioner. It can either bring in air from outside or vent air from inside to outside. So, the cooler it is outside, the cooler the air will be. The temperature setting is if it's cooler outside than your desired temperature, the fan will turn off until the temp inside rises again. You won't be able to cool the air any lower than the outside temperature.

[@rhondaclemmons9133]

Thanks for sharing.Really enjoyed it👍🙂

[@KyleCliftonVlog]

Also I think the cushions are upside down

[@KyleCliftonVlog]

Great review! Thanks Brian!

[@MichaelWilliams-gg3xz]

I was wondering how does this product works up too all types of weather conditions

[@joshuahamilton2441]

I wonder how well this functions vs a regular window air conditioner. Looking for a less expensive option to cool my office down, but i'm thinking i'm going to have to go with a window air conditioner.

[@nosynosee3835]

If you use the exhaust instead of trying to blow air in, and open a window on a different side of the room, it will cool your room if outside is cooler. But I don’t think it’s an air conditioner.

[@chucknorse6571]

Is there a similar alternative that is meant to mount vertically besides the typical dual prop systems.

[@KenjiHouston]

Looks nice. How does the air flow compare to twin prop window fan. If it is about the same. Then I might as well get 2 or 3 cheaper fans.

[@stoneyj1a1]

Does it lower the room temperature

[@Fielder621]

Thank you. This was helpful!

[@johnnytsunami803]

Alot of people in reviews say it doesn't blow very hard at all... I just ordered mine but I'm thinking of cancelling for just a reversible twin blade window fan? Any thoughts? Is this thing strong? Didn't seem very powerful on 4

[@marlonlyn2719]

It doesn't blow hard as far as static pressure, but it will close the door if you have it on inlet mode, and your door is close enough to be closed.

[@johnnytsunami803]

@@marlonlyn2719 I bought it, thing is a monster, blows hard and sucks harder! I love it, recommend 100%

[@gdehmer31]

I like to have a fan to vent my ecig smoke somtime and I'm running into the issue of 2 different fans when I'm in my room ( one for pulling smoke out and one for just general cooling of my room). So my question is, does it suck the air out when in exhaust mode? Is it powerful enough to pull smoke out the windows without it coming back into the room?

[@charlesjohnson756]

E sig ? yeah ok

[@Parjesh888]

Does it get dusty, how to clean

[@ronaldchan3401]

Oh my. Why the cord in the middle?

[@gangstaelegantproductions2780]

What happens when its storming outside??

[@elmangoeldenortecarolina9604]

Do it have a inside air filter?

[@5lomar]

does it use filters?

[@X6800]

Fans similar to this existed 20+ years ago by Lakewood and Holmes. The Lakewood was rather powerful compared to the Holmes. But I wonder how this Transom feels.

[@uhavemooface]

Those are only for windows that up and down not side to side so I am pretty much screwed buying any like that.

[@Detroitblue]

You might have a future in comedy like in a Martin Short kind of way. The whole act or trying to hard to look cute and then the going against all engineering advisories you decide to mount the fan vertically and to have it fall out on you was halarious.

[@Jesusisproo]

Does this cool a room down ?

[@mughalm2k]

Is this high velocity?

[@tamtamtamatim.4860]

Is need filter and change ???

[@debbiesue1970]

What is the thermostat for. You can lower the temp number but it's a fan not an air condition. It won't lower the air temp does it?

[@marlonlyn2719]

I believe this is for the fan to turn on / Turn off. Let's say it's 30℉ outside and your room will get to a toasty 90℉ because of a high powered gaming rig. if you set the temperature to 60℉ it will shut off so the room doesn't get too cold, and turn back on once it passes the threshold. Another way to look at it is let's say it's outdoors is 90℉ and you have central A/C set to 74℉. You can flush the build up in heat, and then have it turn off. With that being said, I heard the internal vent does not close if it's set to Auto, so take that into consideration.

[@norbertrivera]

Good window fan but sadly you can redirect the air vents.

[@LiamsMom1]

So am I understanding this correctly you can use the exhaust and the fan at the same time or you can only use one at a time?

[@juliadavidson9248]

This is my exact question… i feel like the fan is circulating the air in the room & not the fresher air from outside

[@warmon6]

Anyone seeing this in the future and asking the same thing, no. Its intake or exhaust. It can not do both at the same time. Also this fan exchanges air between indoors and outdoor. It does not recirculate indoor air only (in fact the way its designed, it can't do that unless you dont have this mounted in a window)

[@BullettGuy]

Brian, How tall is the fan?

[@SuperPussyFinger]

Why 3.5 stars if you claim that the price is appropriate?

[@michaelthomson5101]

There is not a 4th and 5th speed because that motor has to move/spin that squirrel cage and move a lot of ar, the motor is too small for a 4th & 5th speed. Squirrel cages move a lot more air than an axial blade fan, that is why it is so small.

[@Gvall-of1wb]

DOES IT WORK...DOES IT MOVE AIR?????

[@luidiaz118]

Can this be install horizontal

[@rochellemdunn]

It is ONLY supposed to be used horizontally. It is designed for up and down windows, not for vertical sliders.

[@jesuscoello7101]

Can you use the fan blowing air and using exhaust at the same time?

[@j.ballsdeep420]

What? No. There's only one fan so it's either push or pull: Push the air out, or pull outside air in

[@almaburns6562]

I find this question mind-blowing! 🙄

[@robertwlivings2362]

How many screws needed into the window frame?

[@rochellemdunn]

None

[@hydrostudios3992]

It's the remote controls for me ..

[@rontimms8980]

🙏praying for you Brian. Hang in there.

[@kurtisneddermann4385]

What's wrong? I didn't catch it in the video.

[@jasonserrano21]

Brian exhaust button means is blowing air in!

[@banditand2.057]

You didn’t mention at all about the temperature control settings. I have no idea how this thing changed the temperature. Is there a heating unit within it ? Is there a cooling element inside? How is it adjusting the temperature?

[@jeremiahjohnson4583]

It will just run until the temp get down to where you have set it. It’s going off the assumption. That the cold night air is cooler than the air in your room.

[@edwinmartinez7821]

Please read the manual you even start filming half of this was trying to give a review but you playing with it till you read the manual

[@user-ql6ys2qq5g]

Your foam blocks are upside down

[@ajrollan5304]

I use this to blow air from a Covid designated room to outside when my daughter got Covid

[@SuperPussyFinger]

Glad I’m not your neighbor.

[@milkman81]

You obviously don’t understand what this fan is made for. It’s not a vertical van, it would probably burn up.

[@Aliwala69]

Dear Brian don't take it personally, you need to do homework first before doing the video so the result will be like a pro. Second I don't see any Technical info in your video but thanks to making at least a few details. Hope to see a better review next time.

[@MatthewSemones]

led's, circuit boards, remote control... all un-necessary and all will fail. is there a company anywhere that just makes a fan. just a fan, not a tech gadget fan, not a computer controlled fan, nor a plastic piece of crap won't last a month fan... a real, genuine, solid, basic does it what its supposed to do fan.

[@anonymous88no47]

first off let me say I like it cold I usually keep my ac on even in the winter That being said this thing is complete shit if you're just looking for a fan to cool a room down I don't recommend this piece of crap my ten dollar fan works just as good if not better than this waste of money and it cools my room down a lot faster to middle of winter and it still can't keep my damn bedroom cool

[@SuperPussyFinger]

Try sleeping outside.

[@amgcha6318]

Bro you look like @hooviesgarage 🤣
