The challengeThe school had conventional hand dryers in place that were about 15 years old. They had a slow dry time of around 30 seconds and a rated power of 2300 kW, which isn’t very energy efficient for a hand dryer. They wanted something more cost effective, as they were renting the machines and it was costing them a lot of money year on year. “They are really good, compact, quiet, easy to keep clean and most of all reliable.

Switching from paper towels to energy efficient hand dryersIntelligent Facility Solutions were tasked with calculating the carbon savings of switching from paper to dryers and then delivering the supply and fit of hand dryers across the YHA locations in England and Wales.Based on the initial 23 sites that were surveyed it was calculated that the YHA could make annual savings of 20,228Kg/CO2 switching to the Dryflow EcoSlim hand dryer.That would save 107 virgin trees per year. These hand dryers are 86 - 96% more energy efficient than a conventional hand dryer.

The challengeSome of the venues had mixed conventional warm air hand dryers varying from 2kw to 2.5kw rated power with 30 to 45 second drying cycles. Some units were manual operation so continued to use energy while not in use. Typical energy consumption was 20 to 30 watt-hours per dry.“The Turboforce were selected because of their high energy efficiency, the units have been well received in all our sites and the upgrade has massively improved the perception of our washroom facilities and cut energy use by 90% compared to our previous hand dryers”S.Midgley - Deputy Head of Estates, Sheffield City TrustWho are Sheffield City Trust?It was established in 1990 with a mission to improve the health and wellbeing of the people of Sheffield. It manages the venues that were built for the 1991 World Student Games and has acquired many more since. It has millions of people through its doors each year with over 15 sport, leisure and entertainment venues under the Sheffield City Trust umbrella.The solutionEnergy efficient, high speed Turboforce hand dryers were installed.
