Choosing a Hand Dryer
How do I choose the best hand dryer for my needs?
Choosing the best hand dryer depends on what features are most important to you. You’ll want to consider hand-drying speed, efficiency, power, sound, appearance, maintenance, cost, and warranty. While a new, energy-efficient hand dryer might cost more upfront, it will be more beneficial and cost-effective in the long run. You should also consider the warranty of the product and if it is an ADA-compliant hand dryer. Each of these and more will impact your purchase decision.
Other items to consider when finding the best hand dryer for your needs are to look at products that have been PCR tested, which means tested and evaluated in a clear, consistent way, allowing you, the consumer, to make better-informed decisions. Consider how many guests will be using your hand dryer every day. The XLERATOR has an 8-second dry time, making it ideal for busy restrooms where a longer dry time may cause congestion. The XLERATOReco has a slightly longer dry time but has added features to save energy. Our ThinAir hand dryer has a 14-second dry time. ThinAir is an affordable option for smaller restrooms with less traffic. Both the XLERATOR and XLERATOReco have 7-year limited warranties, while ThinAir has a 5-year limited warranty.
