An air-sending device includes a housing including an inlet air passage communicating with an air inlet and an outlet air passage communicating with an air outlet, a first partition plate partitioning an interior of the housing into the inlet air passage and the outlet air passage, a bell mouth disposed around an opening defined in the first partition plate, and an impeller disposed over the first partition plate across the bell mouth and having a rotation axis that extends in a direction that intersects the first partition plate. The impeller suctions air into the inlet air passage from the air inlet, and blows out air from the air outlet through the outlet air passage. The inlet air passage guides air from the air inlet to the opening along the first partition plate, and has an air-passage wall.
