Delivering more than a new experience of drying hands effectively and an evolved image for the washroom, a new hand dryer technology lowers paper waste, conserves energy and reduces a building's carbon footprint.
This course lists the key characteristics and benefits of different hand drying methods and identifies the sustainability and financial cost issues associated with commercial hand dryers. In addition, it names the LEED® categories where new energy efficient hand dryers can contribute points.
Video clips are employed to demonstrate and explain the concepts of new dryer technology and the research that led to its development. The course concludes with case studies where new hand dryers reinforce the design aesthetic of the project and the business mission of the client.
