Upgrade a World Dryer XA5 Hand Dryer

Hello,

I have 10 XA5 dryers.  Is there any upgrade to my XA5’s that can make them more powerful?

Hi, Gary,

If you are willing to swap out your XA5-974 hand dryer with a new one, I  have the perfect upgrade for you.  The World Dryer Airmax, model XM5-974 is the same hand dryer as the XA5 that you have, however it is almost twice as fast.  The Airmax uses a faster motor and pushes more air through the same nozzle.  The World Dryer Model A, XA5-974 that you have takes about 30 seconds to dry hands.  The Airmax, XM5-974 takes about 20 seconds to dry hands (a little less, usually).  

In your situation, the good news is that both hand dryers are the same size and the same voltage, so it's easy to swap one out for the other.  The only downside is that the Model A is fairly quiet and the Airmax is fairly loud.  

You can purchase the World Dryer XM5-974 here:  World Dryer Airmax Hand Dryer
