The polished (bright) stainless cover option in the J-Series Airforce hand dryer is no longer being manufactured by the World Dryer Corporation. Please see instead the J-973A3 as its replacement.  The J-973A3 looks identical to the J-972A, but with a brushed (satin) finish instead of a polished (bright) finish.  The J-Series Airforce hand dryer by the World Dryer Corporation is an environmentally friendly ambient temperature hand dryer. Unlike similar hand dryers by other manufacturers, the Airforce utilizes an innovative multi-jet technology. It is capable of taking the user’s hands from wet to dry in 12 seconds (2.5 times faster than traditional dryers). The modern sleek design of the J-972 starts with its light weight, yet durable cover made of stainless steel. The cover is then polished to a bright, mirror-like finish. Coated with a patented anti-microbial, anti-bacterial additive (called SteriTouch), the cover is resistant to the growth of harmful organisms such as bacteria, mold, and fungi.  The Model J-972 is considered relatively quiet for the speed and air volume produced (88 dB at operator's ear with hands in air stream). The brush-type motor operates at an astonishing speed of 34,000 RPM and is capable of producing an air velocity of 10,500 linear feet per minute or 206 miles per hour (105 CFM air volume) and a temperature increase of 40°F at hand level (approx. 4 in. below nozzle). Both the motor and heating element are activated automatically by an infrared sensor. Dry time is approx. 12 seconds, but the length of the dry cycle is determined by the user. As soon as the user's hands are removed from under the unit, the drying cycle is terminated. This unit has an impressive water ingress rating of IP24. Mounting instructions and warranty information are included. The World Airforce could be your answer to the high cost and unhygienic mess of paper towels.

PLEASE NOTE: With the purchase of the KJR-973 AIRFORCE Recess Kit, the World J-972 can be made ADA compliant - See KJR-973 Recess Kit listing.
