Abstract: A blower includes a first tower and a second tower spaced apart from each other each having discharge ports that face each other. A gate is movably installed in at least one of the first tower or the second tower to protrude into and out of the space between the first and second towers to change a flow of air discharged out of the discharge ports. A guide motor may be configured to move the gate. The discharge ports may be provided at a rear side of the space to discharge air toward a front of the space, while the gate may be moved to cover the front side of the space to guide air upward.
