Vent Axia Tempest Hand Dryer
The Tempest Hand Dryer from Vent Axia has been designed as a cost effective alternative to hand drying. They have been designed with speed and efficiency in mind and the drying time has been lowered to 10-12 seconds which is almost half that of similar products on the market today. These improvements mean a reduction in 'cloakroom' time and a huge 70% energy saving against conventional dryers.
The Tempest Hand Dryer benefits from several design advancements making it suitable for almost any application.
The heater can be adjusted between 450 and 900W making it suitable for use on construction sites, in schools and for use in a variety of washroom applications.
One of the more innovative new features is a blue LED light which gives the user a visible indication of the drying zone allowing them to ensure their hands remain in the drying area at all times.
