Hand Dryer Case Study (Large office) - ASE Plc, Manchester

The challenge

The old hand dryers had burnt out and were extremely noisy. The washrooms are located close to the reception desk and they often caused background noise problems for staff and visitors.

“Choosing a product that was both quiet and eco-friendly, I had reservations about performance, however this was unwarranted. Superb dryer at a bargain price to match.”

The solution

• Model: Dryflow Viper
• Dry time range: 15 – 20 seconds
• Rated power: 600W – 2000W (4 settings available)
• Guarantee length: 3 years

The results

“The noise has dramatically reduced into the reception area and it is now as quiet as is should be.

The new models selected are much less powerful and more eco-friendly, however the end result is just as good, dry hands all round. In fact, we just purchased another one”
