Hand Dryer Parts

Keeping your hand dryer running smoothly in your bathroom is crucial to the sanitation of your business. The hand dryer is a very important appliance in keeping bathrooms clean and sanitary. It dries your hands and arms after a client has been dried off and is a safety feature that promotes good hygiene. You will need to test different types of hand dryer parts to find the ones that best suit your dryer. A review of your options will help you choose the right parts to prolong the life of your hand dryer and avoid frequent repair bills.

The Hand Held Electric Degree (HID) dryers has several parts that need to be replaced to extend the life of the appliance and improve its drying time. These parts include the following: the venting system, the housing, the heat exchanger, the air handler, the control panel, the venturi valve, the air curtains, and the heat pump. The air handler controls the rate of convection and heat exchange of air that results from the heating or cooling of the air. It is usually located by the front of the hand dryer. If it malfunctions, the machine may not dry properly or not efficiently.

The size of your hand dryer needs to be determined so that you can get the right size for your space. Models range in wattage, and the higher the wattage, the faster the dry time. If you are using an older model that gets hot and humid on the outside while not drying your hands thoroughly, it is likely that the wattage is too low. It may be time for a new hand dryer with higher wattage if you are getting dry time problems. You should check to make sure that the electrical connections are sound and there is enough amperage.

The most important part of a hand dryer is the heat-emitting device, also called the integrated nozzle. This part is called the IHT, and it is the part that makes the heat produced come out of the heating element into the towel. This part consists of three main components: the venturi valve, the combustion chamber, and the integrated nozzle. The combined these parts help to regulate the airflow, regulate the temperature, and maintain the appropriate heat for hand drying. Some of these parts are often incorporated in newer models to help reduce the amount of heat loss, but if the model that you have does not have an integrated nozzle, some other device will be used, such as a disposable drier pad.

There are several other electric hand dryer parts that can be purchased to replace worn or damaged parts. Some of these are safety precautions to keep the area around the appliance clean. Wall guards are available that attach to the bottom of your appliance, with hinges that close over the cord. These guards can either be plastic, mesh like, or metal. They protect from moisture coming into the room from the cord and prevent things like water, steam, and fingerprints from damaging the appliance.

Hand dryers can be broken down into several different types, depending on their needs. Each one will have its own set of pros and cons, and each different manufacturer uses its own proprietary combination of parts to build the perfect hand dryer. Before buying, make sure to do your research and know exactly what you need. You may need to buy more than one part to get everything working correctly, depending on your needs. There is a vast selection of hand dryers available, including cordless, electric, gas, as well as compatible cordless, electronic, as well as hybrid models.
