A little something for theCHIVE

We've accepted theCHIVE's "If it fits, it ships" challenge to ship some random stuff in a USPS Flat Rate box.

In theory a Chive blogger will be reading this any time now. This will afford us the opportunity to tell you that the Raspberry Zippi is for Emily at theBERRY. The original idea was to ship you guys some green Zippi's- but we went and discontinued those awhile back- so no dice.

And that 660 Circulator we sent you... we weren't going to be deterred by the limitations of the Flat Rate Box... Not for a PR gimmick like this. No sir. Now, could you place it riight... here? Thaaanks.

Now, enjoy the cat videos.

And if that's not enough random cat nonsense for you... then here's some more.

How to best circulate air in an office?

We received a really good question from @blua on Twitter - so we figured we'd share it here for others to reference. She even provided a scaled diagram to ensure we knew the lay of the land!























The question was:
"New office has no circulation. How do I know if I need a small or medium air circulator?"

I consulted one of our expert customer service reps, Adrienne, for her feedback.

Miss Blua A. Hurd: Here is our reply!

Good Morning,

For an office they’ll want a quiet unit. I would recommend the 660, because it can move lots of air on the low and medium speeds, without generating much noise. Actually, on medium, you can barely hear the circulator, but it’s moving more air than the 530 on high and 630 on low/medium. Definitely, go with the 660!

Below are the CFM and Decibel readings of the 660, 184 Tower, 630 and 530. This should help explain further.

660
CFM: Turbo-584/High-459/Medium-349/Low-257
Decibel: Turbo-67/High-61/Medium-55/Low-50

184 Tower
CFM: Turbo-500/High-407/Medium-315/Low-226
Decibel: Turbo-68/High-63/Medium-55/Low-50

630
CFM: High-389/Medium-304/Low-241
Decibel: High-67/Medium-60/Low-54

530
CFM: High-283/Medium-222/Low-152
Decibel: High-68/Medium-61/Low-52

Let me know if you need more info.

Adrienne rocks - and I tend to agree with her that the 660's ability to circulate your office with nary a whisper makes it an excellent choice. It's worth noting that even our smallest 530B would certainly provide ample circulation, but you'd likely want to turn it to "high" on a few of those hot summer days, which would mean a higher sound level. Plus, the 660's cool gloss finish and chrome adjustment bar make it a good fit for a professional environment! (Your coworkers will be envious.)

Final thought, with that bunny-fur, a little extra circulation power couldn't hurt, right?
(If you wonder what that means- you'll just have to check out @blua on Twitter!)

This is what makes it all worthwhile

Sometimes you have one of those conversations via social networks. The conversation that was so amusing/strange/inspirational/shocking/etc. that it makes your day. Here was one such conversation. I can't begin to describe why the term "besmirched" is so hilarious to me- it just is. Thanks to @kishmeintouches for the great engagement!

The OPPOSITE of a Vornado heater

Ran across this on Ebay... it's a vintage fan that uses a 220V hot plate mounted to the grill. Hmm - super hot coils, within easy reach?? Think of it as the EXACT OPPOSITE approach Vornado takes to heater design. At least they used a cool color though!

For all you Vintage Vornado enthusiasts, here's the first of what I hope to be many more Vintage manuals for your information and entertainment. These manuals are beautiful to behold - the design and printing characteristic of the mid 50's is simply phenomenal.
