Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The team at 'The Potter's Wheel', a busy ceramics cafe in Stoke-on-Trent, were getting fed up with the constant mess and  expense of paper towels in their customer toilets, especially during weekend workshops.

"We were spending a small fortune on paper towels, and  our bins were always overflowing, which looked unprofessional. On top of that, the plumbing was constantly getting blocked. We needed a more permanent, tidier solution."

David Williams – Owner, The Potter's Wheel

After installing two Jantex GD847 dryers, the cafe immediately saw a difference. Their washroom running costs have fallen by over 70%, and  staff no longer waste time unblocking drains or emptying bins during service.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • For safety and  compliance, installation should always be carried out by a qualified electrician.
  • Choose a solid, flat wall surface at a comfortable height for the average user.
  • Ensure the location is a safe distance from sinks and  direct water splashes.
  • Once installed, test the sensor's range and  responsiveness to ensure it's working correctly.

Keeping It Going

  • Regularly wipe the stainless steel casing with a soft, damp cloth to maintain its shine.
  • Gently clean the infrared sensor 'eye' with a dry cloth to prevent dust build-up.
  • Periodically check that the air nozzle is clear of any lint or debris.
  • Avoid using abrasive pads or harsh chemical cleaners, as they can damage the finish.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Hand Dryer

Not sure what to look for? Choosing the right unit for your business is simple when you know what matters. Here are a few key points to consider.

Traffic Level

How many people will use it daily? High-traffic areas like pubs or event venues need a robust, high speed hand dryer like this one to cope with constant use.

Drying Speed

A fast dry time (under 20 seconds) is crucial for busy locations. It prevents queues from forming and  keeps your customers happy.

Running Costs

Switching from paper towels to an automatic dryer eliminates the recurring cost of consumables and  slashes washroom waste.

Noise Level

Powerful motors are effective but can be noisy. Consider your environment—a loud dryer is fine in a bustling bar but less so in a quiet spa.

Vandalism Risk

For any public or unsupervised washroom, a tough, tamper-resistant casing is a must-have to protect your investment.

How Touch-Free Drying Boosts Hygiene and  Saves Money

Ever wondered how an automatic commercial hand dryer actually works? The secret is the small, dark window you see on the front – the infrared sensor. Think of it like the automatic doors at a supermarket; it constantly sends out an invisible beam of light. When you place your hands underneath, you break that beam, and  the reflection tells the dryer's brain to switch on the motor instantly. The moment you pull your hands away, the beam is restored, and  it switches off.

This simple piece of tech is brilliant for two reasons. Firstly, it's incredibly hygienic. Nobody has to touch a button that hundreds of other people have pressed, significantly reducing the spread of germs. Secondly, it’s a massive energy saver. The dryer only runs when it’s actively being used, meaning not a single watt of electricity is wasted, which is great for both the planet and  your electricity bill.

Who Should Buy This?

    A must-have for keeping customer loos running efficiently and  cutting down on paper towel mess on a busy Friday night.
