Excel Dryer has upgraded to electrostatic HEPA filtration, which is an optional feature for their XLERATOR hand dryer models and is now available in its newly expanded, surface-mounted, ADA-compliant ThinAir Hand Dryer product line. ThinAir is a high-efficiency model that includes all the standard enhanced features — including adjustable sound, speed and heat controls — while also protruding less than 4 inches from the wall to adhere to ADA regulations. ThinAir dries hands in 14 seconds1, operates on 950 watts and helps facilities qualify for several LEED Credits and WELL® Points.
The upgraded HEPA filtration system uses electrostatically charged media, which allows for increased airflow and attracts particles — including bacteria and viruses — to the filter media, removing them from the air.
1Dry time and energy use testing performed by SGS International on standard ThinAir Hand Dryers to 0.25g or less of residual moisture, pursuant to the UL Environment Global Product Category Rules (PCR) for Hand Dryers.
