How to choose a commercial hand dryer

Hand dryers cut ongoing paper towel costs, reduce washroom waste and remove the need for constant restocking. The right model depends on footfall, the look of the washroom and how much space is available on the wall.

What to consider

Think about the number of users at peak times, as one dryer per few basins helps avoid queues. Check drying time, noise levels for locations such as schools or quiet offices, and the power rating to plan the circuit. Sensor operation keeps the dryer touch-free and stops it running when nobody is using it.

Installation and electrical supply

Hand dryers are normally hard-wired through a switched fused connection unit, which you can find in our wiring accessories, so the unit can be isolated for servicing. Washroom circuits are commonly protected by an RCBO; confirm the requirements in current wiring regulations and the manufacturer's instructions. Mount at a height suitable for the expected users, including wheelchair users in accessible toilets, and keep the dryer away from basins and splash areas. Good ventilation helps too, so pair new washrooms with suitable extractor fans.
