Hand Dryer installation is straight forward as long as you follow a few simple basics and it’s best to have a read through these now in advance of your hand dryer arriving.

1. Decide who will install your hand dryer

DIY Installation

If there’s a plug nearby and the hand dryer you have chosen comes with a 3-pin plug and lead, you could affix to the wall yourself as there is no electrical work required. However, many of our customers prefer to hard wire their units for aesthetic or compliance reasons.

Hard wired hand dryer installation

If you are hardwiring the unit, then you are going to need a a qualified service person in accordance with the local wiring regulations code. Usually this means calling a qualified electrician and asking their rate for an hour or two of their time. Tell them what the wall surface is like as tiles may take a little longer than gib. Do this ahead of time, because it’s likely it will take them longer to book you in than it will for your hand dryer to arrive.

2. Once your hand dryer arrives

Now that you’ve got someone to install your hand dryer or hand dryers, you can relax. They will be able to take care of everything. If you do open the box, you will find everything you need for installation including:

The JetDryer Executive² is the flagship model of the range and includes everything a modern bathroom requires in a premium hand drying solution. Keeping the hand dryer clean doesn’t require any technical knowledge, it’s as simple as wiping down the surface areas regularly with a damp cloth on a daily basis, then wiping down the sensors with a dry cloth on a weekly basis.

'Hands under' dryers in the Australian market

The quantity of ‘hands under‘ style dryers available in Australia is significant despite the technology being over 60 years old. Before 1993, it was the only design of hand dryer available in the marketplace and it‘s only in the last decade that we have seen the introduction of ‘hands in‘ style dryers that are tending to replace the old ‘hands under‘ style unless there are constraints with the size or maintenance of the bathroom (covered later in this article).

So... you're in the market for a hand dryer under a grand. Imagine this.

It’s Monday morning and buying a hand dryer for your company bathroom is probably the last thing you had expected to be doing. Yet, it’s more common that you might expect. Why on a Monday you might ask. Two reasons.

1. The Cleaner usually comes once a week on a Friday yet it’s Monday and there’s still paper towels everywhere. The staff have gone in and the state of the bathroom has become the topic of conversation at your weekly meeting instead of real work.

2. You’re catching up on admin, signing off on monthly bills when you discover the bill for paper towels. It’s out of control and you ‘lose your mind’ on how much they’re costing your business.

There must be a better way so you ask your PA to do some research and find out what options are out there. ‘Don’t break the bank, just find out what can fix this so it doesn’t become a problem again.’ you say. If this sounds like the situation you’re in right now, keep reading. If you’re the person doing the research, this article will help you prepare what you need to make the best recommendation.

Sizzler Restaurants selects Jet Dryer Maintenance Programme.

Sizzler Restaurants are famous for letting customers decide their dining experience including the volume, nutritional balance and variety of each meal. While they are well known for their grill and the soup, salad, pasta, fruit and dessert bars, what is less known, but equally important to the success of each Sizzler restaurant, is the standardised systems and processes that run in the background that keeps each of the 23 restaurants operating.

Sizzler knows what they’re great at and that’s delicious food in a casual dining environment. When it came to upgrading and managing their bathroom environments at each restaurant location, finding a partner that would continue to help them after the upgrade was a key factor.
