South Farnborough Junior School is a non-denominational Junior School catering for boys and girls from seven to eleven years of age, situated in Farnborough, Hampshire. It caters for approximately 400 pupils and has a Resourced Provision for Learning Difficulties that provides provision for 20 children.
The Challenge
The school had conventional hand dryers in place that were about 15 years old. They had a slow dry time of around 30 seconds and a rated power of 2300 kW, which isn’t very energy efficient for a hand dryer. They wanted something more cost effective, as they were renting the machines and it was costing them a lot of money year on year.
The results:
- Estimated annual cost to use old hand dryers: £644*
- Estimated annual cost to use new hand dryers: £235.20*
- Annual cost savings: £408.80*
- Payback period: approx. 2.4 years
They are really good, compact, quiet, easy to keep clean and most of all reliable. The children seem to like the fact there is no button to push.
