Hi there, it's Jack at Dyson. Our range of Airblade™ hand dryers are engineered for use in a commercial environment - but there would be nothing to stop someone from installing one in a home if they wanted to.

Hi James, the Dyson Airblade™ Tap is engineered for use in commercial washrooms - where sinks are used solely for hand washing - rather than domestic bathrooms. Many commercial facilities have pre-existing mixer units for water temperature, and the Dyson Airblade™ Tap hand dryer is compatible with most mixer units.

There’s a few installed at my local Starbucks, and I must say, when these things are working to dry your hands, man, I’m really feeling it! The Monado wishes it were as powerful!

i used this yesterday and its far better than the original air blade dryer. i'll be glad when all the hand dryers in washrooms are airblade's or similar as the tech is far superior to old evaporation tech.

Give the dyson airblade v hand dryers a hug!

They literally scrape the excess water from your hands using blades of high-pressure HEPA-filtered airflow. Have you spotted the Airblade Tap yet?

Hi there, it's Jack at Dyson. Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers are engineered to be quick and hygienic to use, and all external surfaces have an antimicrobial coating to minimise cross-contamination. Daily maintenance will come down to the cleaning regime of the facilities they're installed in. If you've noticed particular Airblade™ hand dryers which need attention, please email us at askdysonUK@dyson.co.uk with the locations, so we can investigate.

Actually a good conventional high power hand dryer can also dry the hand in 10sec, with really high speed jets, just very few places have them. (Most hand dryers are slow and crappy though, that's why people used Dyson's immediately think it's the only thing that works.)

Well the non Dyson had dryers that work really well aren't really conventional hand dryers either - thou I'd say they're common, though plenty changes in 10 years - I definitely think more places have good hand dryers now than then. The air force, which is what there was before in this example is about 20-25 seconds, not the best, not the worst. Most hand dryers now also use less energy than in the past, because they have a small heating element, if any at all, so have a lower power rating, and take half to a quarter as long to dry

I've saw them at Bicester and they are awsome. It has very talented futuristic character to that hand dryer.

@a Network so sticking my hands in toilet water will dry my hands faster? Pretty odd comparison to make

I love Dyson air blade v because it works

problem with the tap air drier is you cant move the location of the tap. its fixed so water comes down in the same position and same temp and same settings each time... custom positioning and custom use is not there. and the tap sticks out too much, taking most of the sink space up. otherwise looks very good.

I've used these at a Welcome Break and loved them! I can't wait for places to get the Dyson Tap Dryers. :)

Haven't seen these anywhere yet. I've used the older model that requires you to jerk your hands in and out. Theyre pretty crap and are not hygienic at all because you always touch the sides.The Air Furys are the best, they basically blow your skin off as well as the water.

HRHooChicken Hi there, it's Jack at Dyson. Dyson Airblade hand dryers use a 400mph sheet of high pressure air to scrape the water droplets off your hands. With the original Dyson Airblade you just need to place your hands in the dryer then draw them out slowly through the airflow, so the water is scraped towards your fingers and away from you. All Airblade's external surfaces have an antimicrobial coating to further reduce the risk of cross-contamination. Other hand dryers don’t filter bacteria and viruses from the washroom air - they suck it in then simply blow it back onto hands. Dyson Airblade hand dryers pass dirty washroom air through a HEPA filter which captures 99.9% of bacteria and viruses. So your hands are dried using cleaner, not dirty air.

This model is even worse than original. It comes on when and for as long as it feels like. It took us a while to work out that in order to get your hands dry you need to wave them like a lunatic, otherwise it will switch off almost instantly and it takes a while to reengage, presumably due to some ecomental reasons.

Hi George, it's Jack at Dyson. The only difference is cosmetic - the Dyson Airblade™ V in the white colourway has a yellow strip, whereas the nickel colourway has a blue strip. The nickel colourway costs a little more as the finish is more costly to manufacture. But the technology, features and performance of both machines are the same. Hope this helps!

They look kinda ugly the old ones looked nicer but these are a lot more hygienic because the old one there would be dirt In the bottom

I work at a Shake Shack in the UnitedStates that has one of these. I have to use both hand to get it started, assuming it's working right I'd is not ADA (American's With Disabilities Act compliant) you should be able to operate it with one hand.

Hi Albert, it''s Jack at Dyson. All Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers are engineered for touch-free operation, so there's no need to come into contact with your machine. The Dyson Airblade™ V hand dryer uses a sensor to create a weak electrical field between itself and Earth. When a user puts their hands close to the machine, the field will be distorted. This will be detected as an increase in capacitance at the sensor and the machine will send out sheets of high velocity, HEPA-filtered air. When the hands are removed, the sensor will detect that the fields have returned to normal and will shut off. If you're worried the sensor isn't working correctly we'd be happy to help further. Just let me know which country you're based in, and I'll be able to put you in touch with your local Dyson Airblade Support team.

@dyson

Hi Albert, thanks for this additional detail. The flooring material - and for that matter, the users' footwear - will not make any difference to how the sensor performs. We'd just recommend placing both hands under the lower part of the machine, just below where the airflow aperture is located, so the sensor can detect them. As mentioned, no part of the machine needs to be touched to switch it on: kzread.info/dash/bejne/o22bsrWzm7vbh7g.html If you'd like any help from our local team, you can find the correct contact details on the Dyson Taiwan website: www.dyson.tw/support/contactus.aspx

Hi Ruth, it's Jack at Dyson. I can't confirm what colourways may be available in future - purple isn't a colourway we currently offer, but you never know what the future may hold! It's unusual for customers to request a louder appliance, and indeed our engineers have focused a lot of attention on making our current hand dryer range quieter than their predecessors. For example the latest Dyson Airblade™ V hand dryer is 35% quieter than the original, thanks to a redesigned impeller and inner diffuser, and a reprogrammed Dyson digital motor V4. The air aperture has also been reduced in slot size, to reduce overall noise.

I think the decible level must be very high and that level can damage infant hearing and also hearing-aid wearers.
