Hand Driers

dcbwhaley

I manage a charity's office and I have been asked to arrange to have a hand drier installed in the loo.  Obviously I will get an electrician to do this but I wonder if the great and the good here have any advice about what to avoid or what to choose.

And are their any restriction on how such a drier is wired in?

    I worked for an international company that took out all the electric hand dryers when they moved into a new building and put in towels. This was pre covid and there reasoning was roller towels reduced the risk of spreading germs/viruses. 

    If you mean a towel which has been stitched into a loop and placed over a roller, that is the worst of all worlds.

    Paper towels which are dispensed either in sheets or off a roll are fine by me. The problem is that so many people do not put them in the bin (which must be electrically or pedal operated in order to be properly hygienic).
