Installation

What is a fused spur and do I need one?

Fused spurs are commonly used as an alternative to a conventional socket, for the installation of powerful electrical appliances that can be installed without a plug, such as ovens, washing machines, electric heaters, dishwashers, fridges, and so on. For safety and maintenance purposes, these sorts of appliances may require installation on a separate cable from the ring main. All hand dryers in the UK have to be installed into a dedicated fused spur.

Are hand dryers an easy install for electricians?

This varies on your location and also the type of install.  If there is no fused spur on your wall this would cost more. Please call us on 0114 3540047 or 0203 3270448 or contact us via email / live chat to quote a firm price on installations.

Are hand dryers an easy install for electricians?

We allow amendment on a rental contract, but for easy processing, we will set up a new contract and payment on products added to the contract. Products reduced on a contract can maintain the same contract but we will set up a new payment for customers paying by direct debit as our platform does not allow amendment of verified payment.

Hand Dryer: What is a fused spur?

Fused spurs are commonly used as an alternative to a conventional socket, for the installation of powerful electrical appliances that can be installed without a plug, such as ovens, washing machines, electric heaters, dishwashers, fridges, and so on. For safety and maintenance purposes, these sorts of appliances may require installation on a separate cable from the ring main. All hand dryers in the UK have to be installed into a dedicated fused spur.

Hand Dryer: What will the UV light in a hand dryer do?

There are UV lights added in certain hand dryers to safely help kill virus and bacteria from within the dryer over a prolonged period of time. They help keep the insides of the dryers or HEPA filters clean. This is not to be confused with a blue light that may be shone on the hands during the drying time. This is purely a light to guide the user to the airflow to aid drying efficiency and contains no UV properties.

Hand Dryer: Will the heater element make a difference?

It only makes fractional differences in speed of dry. The modern high speed models don't need to rely on a heater element to evaporate the water, the speed of the air flow does the job a lot more efficiently. The heat is primarily a psychological / comfort feature. One of the main reasons hand dryers don't include a heater element or they have the ability to switch it off is without the heater on they are so much more energy efficient. This means better for the environment but also cheaper to run. The heat generated from the motor usually does enough to heat the airflow to a comfortable level anyway and as already said the pros of not having one certainly out way the cons of a seconds quicker dry time.

Hand Dryer: General maintenance advice

A well-maintained dryer will increase its lifespan! We’ve created a helpful maintenance guide to make sure you get the very best performance from your new dryer. See full guide here

General: What does the IP mean?

The IP rating (Ingress Protection) is separated into 2 – the first number and the second.  The higher the first number, the better the intrusion resistance from solids or protection from people being able to make contact with moving parts.  The higher the second number – the higher the moisture resistance. For more information about this please read this blog article What Does The IP Rating of a Hand Dryer Mean? here
