To maintain the exterior of the dryer

Hand dryers should be regularly cleaned as part of your washroom cleaning schedule.

  • The exterior of the dryer, including the automatic controller lens and the air inlet grille, should be cleaned with a damp cloth
  • DO NOT use aggressive cleaners or solvents as they can permanently damage the surface.
  • A proprietary furniture polish can be used, however performing a test on a small area is recommended
  • Airdri dryers are drip proof (IP21 or better, see rating label), DO NOT allow liquids to enter the unit

  • Turn off all power to the dryer
  • Remove the cover
  • Using a small brush or vacuum, carefully clean out the build-up of dust and lint
  • Check the length of the motor brushes. If less than ½” (12.7mm), replace. Check that motor brushes are installed correctly and that the brushes are worn evenly
  • Clean controller lens
  • Replace cover
  • Turn power back on
