More Airflow, Less Energy

Sidekick’s permanent-magnet motor moves more air at nearly double the efficiency of its closest competitor. With a magnetron core, it also runs cooler than induction or belt-driven motors, ensuring a long life of peak performance.

• Smaller, lighter, and more powerful than any other fan motor in its class
• Brushless DC motor design further reduces friction and energy loss
• 100% passive cooling keeps operating temperature low and efficiency high

Quiet By Design

Sidekick is engineered the fan with a vented shroud to reduce noise, and its six-blade design provides consistent airflow with none of the choppy sound common to three-bladed fans.

Build Like No Other

Features such as a patented airfoil system, variable speed direct-drive motor, and impact-resistant frame are what set Sidekick apart from the barrel fans of yesteryear.

• Sleek, durable reinforced nylon airfoils
• Fully adjustable variable speed control dial
• OSHA-compliant steel screen and HDPE shroud
