Why buy American Dryer?

American Dryer’s GX Series hand dryers hail from a long line of reliable, American made commercial products. American Dryer has been producing dependable and affordable commercial hand dryers for over 55 years. This ABS GX Series hand dryer continues to uphold the company’s standard of quality products and is hand tested by an experience technician.

The GX1 series commercial hand dryer’s stylish, one-piece cover is flame and vandal resistant. This compact automatic hand dryer has a permanently lubricated, 1/12 HP, 3200 RPM motor that is virtually maintenance free. This dryer's heating element operates in the black range to extend the life of the element.

The GX1 hand dryer features an automatic sensor which will turn on air when hands are under the outlet, and then turn off the air flow when hands are removed. In order to be more energy efficient, an automatic override turns off the air flow after 80 seconds.

American Dryer's automatic hand dryers are not only highly durable and reliable, but are also the most cost efficient and sanitary choice for your business needs. On average, this dryer will pay for itself in only 12 months by eliminating the need for paper towel products and using up to 80% less energy than other conventional hand dryers. Typically, a restaurant will use 90 cases of paper towels per year, resulting in costs of over $2,000.00 The annual cost to operate an American Dryer unit is, on average, $96. In only a year, your business will save over $1,900.00! This will allow your food service or public school business to increase profit and eliminate mess!

American Dryer's economically friendly stance is yet another benefit to purchasing this amazing product. These commercial hand dryers help to protect the environment by eliminating the need for paper towels, which cannot be recycled. Unlike paper towels, electric hand dryers do not cause pollution or consume natural resources. For every ton of paper towels produced, 20,000 gallons of our earth's water is polluted and 17 trees must be cut down. By meeting all of these requirements, this American Dryer product is listed by GreenSpec as an environmentally friendly product and qualifies for LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) credits.

American Dryer backs this product with a 5-year limited warranty.
