Hand dryer power can be defined as two things: the power of the airflow it emits to dry your hands and the power (electricity) it takes to run. Commercial hand dryers boast the best of both worlds, drying hands quickly and with less power than past hand dryers! One model can dry hands using only 500 watts! Using fewer watts to dry users’ hands makes them more environmentally friendly and less costly, meaning savings for you and the environment.
