The Dyson Airblade AB09 offers a short counter - mount option. It combines Airblade™ hand - drying technology with a tap, allowing you to wash and dry hands right at the sink.

It costs as low as $44 a year to run, features touch - free operation, standard HEPA filtration, and dries hands in just 14 seconds for a cleaner, more hygienic washroom. Key features include a standard HEPA filter that captures 99.97% of 0.3 - micron particles, touch - free use, fast 14 - second dry time, low annual running cost, up to 98% less expensive than single - use paper towels, a small carbon footprint, 80 dBA noise level, a tough stainless - steel build, sink - side hand washing and drying to reduce floor water, automatic 24 - hour water flush to prevent stagnation, space - saving design, HACCP International certification for food prep areas, Carbon Trust verification, LEEDv4 credit applicability, WELL Building Standard V2.0 compliance (up to 4 points), easy servicing, and a 5 - year parts and labor warranty.
Using the Dyson Airblade AB09 is a breeze. Just place your hands under the tap to wash them. The dryer will automatically switch from water to air and dry your hands in about 14 seconds. Remember, the average electricity price used for the running - cost calculation is $0.13/kWh as of October 2023. For more detailed calculations, visit www.dyson.com/calcs. The dry time is based on Dyson test method 769, measuring 0.1g of residual moisture. To keep your hand dryer in top shape, the HEPA filter should be checked regularly as it captures 99.97% of small particles. The automatic water flush activates after 24 hours to reduce water stagnation, but it's still a good idea to do a visual check every now and then. The stainless - steel body is tough, but avoid using abrasive cleaners. The hand dryer is easy to service, and it comes with a 5 - year parts and labor warranty, so if you encounter any problems, don't hesitate to reach out for support.
