Pedal tones (those below LOW F#) are used to build up your air pressure. Increased air pressure will allow you not only to play higher, but will increase your endurance and tone.
Air = good

PS
When you practice pedal tones, take a really deep breath and play them as loud as you can for as long as you can.
Make sure to breath with your diaphragm, not your shoulders. Your diaphragm is what you use to generate most of your air for playing, so breathing in with your shoulders won`t help much for air flow.
