When you enter a public washroom, you are always thinking about the cleanliness, first and foremost. The washrooms in your facility – from your average public toilet to a commercial level facility – are visited by almost everyone who visits your establishment. Presenting a hygienic, clean and environmentally friendly atmosphere is key in today’s society.
Installing an electric hand dryer in your locations improves the washroom on a multitude of levels. With these dryers, you are demonstrating that your facility is environmentally friendly, focused on cleanliness, and dedicated to ensuring the best experience for everyone.
Electric Hand Dryer Options
Dryers come in a variety of types. High-speed dryers ensure your guests are in and out quickly, and dryers with speed control allow you also to control the noise emitted within your washrooms. Choices in appearance range from stainless steel to porcelain to plastic, giving you the chance to match the decor of your facility. Durability is also a factor, keeping vandalism and repairs at a minimum.
Environmentally Friendly
Electric hand dryers are an environmentally friendly option. Using hand dryers cuts back on paper cost and towel use, by encouraging people to use this more hygienic option. Using less paper product reduces your impact on the landfills. Efficient and energy-saving devices cut back on electricity costs, doing even more to help the environment. The cleanliness of your washroom will also increase, with less paper product in the trash.
Appearance
Size matters when it comes to the placement of electric hand dryers in your establishment. Having a dryer small enough to place in tight corners, or unobtrusive enough to place in ADA compliant spots is important. A space-saving dryer means you can place more dryers in more places, creating better flow in your washroom. Modern-looking dryers fit better in modernized washrooms, but there are also dryers that have a retro feel, which may be suited to a more retro decor.
Cost
An average public elementary school can spend more than $80 a day on paper towels from washroom use. That means almost $30,000 is spent annually on paper towels – for just $1000 people. Track how many people come through your facility on an annual basis and you will see the cost-saving benefits of switching to electric hand dryers very quickly. Cut back on your expenses with just this simple switch.
Regardless of the size, shape, efficiency, noise or speed of your hand dryer, there is no doubt about the benefits of an electric hand dryer. From environmental to electronic efficiency, ease of use, and convenience, along with promoting a clean area – hand dryers are the future – say goodbye to paper towels today.
