Fan Sound for Sleeping
- Choose Fan for sleeping. It turns the motor hum up a little and the tone down.
- Set the timer to 60 minutes or 8 hours. The fan fades out over the last two minutes, like someone switching it off.
- Keep the volume low, about as loud as a real fan across the room.
A fan's steady sound covers small noises, like a door closing or a car outside, that would stand out in a quiet room. Here you get the sound without the cold air or the dust.
How This Fan Is Made
There's no recording. The fan is noise shaped like one: most of the energy low, a soft hum underneath, and a little rush of air on top. The Oscillating fan rises and falls every eight seconds or so, like a fan turning toward you and away again.
Box Fan or White Noise?
A box fan sounds lower and softer than white noise, because moving air makes more low sound than high. If white noise feels too bright, a fan is the gentler choice. For something deeper still, try brown noise.
A Fan Sound for Travel
If you sleep with a fan at home, a hotel room can feel too quiet. This page gives you the same steady sound anywhere, with no fan to pack and no draft in winter. Put your phone across the room rather than by your pillow, and use the timer so it stops when you want it to.
FAQs
- Is this a recording of a fan?
- No. It's noise shaped to sound like a fan and made live in your browser, so it never loops.
- Can I turn off the motor hum?
- Yes. Move the Motor hum slider to zero for just the sound of moving air.
- Does it use much data?
- Almost none. The sound is made on your device, so nothing streams once the page has loaded.
