Hand dryers or paper towels?

A high-speed dryer eliminates towel purchases, waste receptacles, and restocking, and pays back in one to two years in a busy restroom. Paper towels cost less up front and are preferred in some healthcare settings. Our buyer's guide on hand dryers vs paper towels covers the math.

What voltage do I need?

Match the branch circuit. 110-120V models plug into standard circuits; 208-240V models draw less current for the same power and are common in new construction. Each product page lists voltage and wattage.

How loud are high-speed hand dryers?

Typically 70 to 85 dB at the user. Several models have adjustable speed to trade dry time for noise, and conventional warm-air dryers are quieter but slower.

Do you carry matte black hand dryers?

Yes. Bobrick and ASI list matte black covers on their high-speed lines, and they are shown alongside the stainless and white versions.

About Hand Dryers

High-speed and conventional hand dryers, surface-mounted within the ADA 4 in. limit or fully recessed.

A hand dryer replaces paper towels, waste receptacles, and the labor that goes with them, and the current generation dries hands in 10 to 15 seconds. We carry hand dryers from Bobrick, Bradley, ASI, and Gamco: high-speed surface-mounted dryers built to project 4 in. or less so they meet ADA Section 307.2 without an alcove, recessed dryers that sit flush in a framed opening, and conventional warm-air dryers for lower-traffic restrooms. Covers are cast aluminum, stainless steel, or steel in satin, white, and matte black. Most models are available in 110-120V and 208-240V versions and are listed to UL standards; product pages state voltage, motor wattage, dry time, and sound level so an engineer can size the circuit and an architect can check the projection. HEPA filtration and adjustable heat and speed are available on several lines.

Hand Dryers: common questions

Only if they project 4 in. or less from the wall when mounted with the leading edge between 27 and 80 in. above the floor, per ADA Section 307.2. The ADA-compliant high-speed dryers we list are built to that depth. Deeper dryers must be recessed or placed in an alcove.
