ADA Information Pertaining TO Restroom Hand Dryers.

ADA compliance is a hot topic today. Creating physical locations that are designed to provide an equal experience to every guest regardless of physical limitations is not a new concept. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was created in the 1990s to prevent discrimination and ensure all Americans could access public spaces without difficulty.

 

The ADA had a major impact on architects, forcing them to adapt their designs to meet rigorous criteria. This criteria includes:

  • Ample space so that a single wheelchair is able to rotate 180º
  • 60-inch width minimum toilet, with the seat falling between 17-19 inches from the toilet base
  • Smooth, easy-to-hold grab bars installed along bathroom walls, especially near toilets
  • Sinks or countertop no more than 34 inches high, with space beneath for acceptable knee clearance
  • Faucets must be workable with only one hand
  • Hand dryers should be motion-activated and shouldn’t extend more than 4 inches from the wall

Architects have risen to the challenge, designing bathrooms that are both functional and attractive. Selecting a hand dryer is often the final piece of the puzzle – finding a model that fits the ADA criteria and is well-designed can be challenging, but Excel Dryer is up to the task.

ADA-Compliant Hand Dryer Solutions

We’re committed to helping you meet your ADA compliance needs, as well as your design needs using innovative technology. We help you comply with ADA guidelines through innovative technology. We developed the first ADA-compliant recess kit for hand dryers and created our XChanger kit for retrofitting paper towel dispensers to the XLERATOR®. Next, we developed ThinAir, our surface-mounted, ADA-compliant hand dryer. ThinAir meets the 4” ADA protrusion guidelines.

 

ADA-Compliant Recess Kit: The Recess Kit adheres to the 4” protrusion ADA guidelines in a restroom walkway and helps keep water off of the wall and floor. The kit sits back in the wall and houses the XLERATOR, which is motion-activated for easy drying for all.

 

XChanger Kit: The XChanger Combo Kit allows a simple and complete transformation from paper towel dispensers and waste receptacles to a high-speed, energy-efficient hand dryer. A panel is installed over the space left by a former paper towel dispenser. The panel will not cause damage to the existing wall surface. The XChanger Combo Kit also helps keep water off of the wall and floor, ensuring safety for all guests.

 

ThinAir Hand Dryer: The ThinAir high-speed, energy-efficient hand dryer model is surface mounted and ADA compliant. It dries hands quickly, in 14 seconds*, using 950 watts or less, with a slimmer profile to meet 4-inch protrusion ADA compliance standards. ThinAir comes in White Polymer or Brushed Stainless Steel, ensuring architects and designers can create beautiful, compliant restrooms.
