Pre-installation checks
Fig. A
Pre-installation planning
The Dyson Airblade Wash+Dry hand dryer
is designed so that the motor unit is located
behind a stud wall within a metal enclosure
which is supplied with the Dyson Airblade
Wash+Dry. Fig. A(i)
The vertical wall studs must be constructed
so as to allow the metal enclosure to be fitted
between them. Refer to Fig. A(i).
– The unit is designed for dry, internal
location only.
– Consult local and national accessibility
codes and regulations for relevant
installation guidelines. Conformity and
compliance is the responsibility of the
installer. Make sure that the unit is installed
in compliance with all building codes and/
or regulations.
– A means for all-pole disconnection must
be incorporated into fixed wiring, in
accordance with local wiring regulations.
– Isolate the power and water supplies before
installation or service.
– Ensure no pipe work (gas, water, air)
or electrical cables, wires or ductwork
are located directly behind the drilling/
mounting area.
– Dyson recommends the use of protective
clothing, eye wear and materials when
installing/repairing as necessary.
– This appliance is intended to be
permanently connected to the water mains.
Use in food preparation areas
For food preparation environments special
installation is required, which must fully
enclose the motor bucket and hose in
a cleanable housing or have the motor
bucket on the reverse side of a wall, provide
adequate clearance for cleaning underneath
(if applicable) and be such that the unit is at
least 8 feet from uncovered food or uncovered
food-contact surfaces.
Refer to the Sink recommendation guide at
www.dyson.com prior to install.
– Correct positioning of the: wall studs, wall
surface, work surface and basin is essential
for a successful installation as shown in
Fig. A(ii).
– The key measurement is from the center
of the tap to the floor. The recommended
distance is approximately 3', but this will
differ depending on the height of the sink,
refer to Template (Part 2).
– Allow sufficient access space for installation
and servicing.
– If a series of units are to be fitted along
a wall adjacent to each other, additional
planning may be required.

Sink specification guidelines
Using a specially designed test method,
Dyson engineers tested a wide range of
sinks to assess their compatibility with the
Dyson Airblade Wash+Dry hand dryer.
For recommended sinks, please use our guide
at www.dyson.com.
Porcelain or brushed metal sinks are ideal.
Sinks with highly polished surfaces should be
avoided e.g. reflective chrome.
For minimum sink dimensions refer to Fig. B.
Fig. C/D/E
Tap mounting
There should be a minimum of 4" and a
maximum of 6" from the top of the sink to the
tap center. Fig. C.
There should be a minimum of 11" between
a tap center and a side wall. When multiple
taps are installed side-by-side, tap centers
should be a minimum of 23" apart. This
allows sufficient space for mounting the motor
bucket, as well as sufficient shoulder room for
users. Fig. D.
Do not place the downward facing water
sensor of the tap over a reflective surface, such
as the drainage hole. Fig. E.

Soap and locating the soap dispenser
For best user experience, Dyson recommends
the use of gel soap.
The infrared sensing zone for air activation
extends along each tap branch. In order to
prevent accidental activation, it’s important
to consider the user’s hand route to the
soap dispenser.
The dispenser should be located at least
2" outside the width of the tap, so the user
reaches around the side of the branch.
It should also be located at least 2" above
the branches, so that the sensors are
not activated.
Please note that the user may reach diagonally
across for the soap, so this path must not go
through the sensing zone.

Water drainage
Due to high velocity air and water being in
close proximity, there is a chance of some
water and soap dispersion outside the
sink dimensions. To alleviate this effect, we
recommend following the guidelines below.
Base Profile
Flat base profile will result in poor drainage
leading to high levels of splashback. To
improve drainage, avoid sinks with a flat
base with particular focus on the immediate
area surrounding the drain hole, minimum 2"
radius. Fig. G.
Minimum of 6° ramp angle from the edge
of the drain hole of the sink will result in
good drainage leading to reduced levels of
splashback (minimum 2" radius). Fig. H.
Fig. I/J/K
Base to back and front wall transition
The base to back and front wall transition
should also be considered. The back wall
should be as close to 90°, and at as sharp a
radius as possible Fig. I. Curved geometry
is more likely to increase splashback
Fig. J, whereas sloping back and front wall
transitions should be avoided Fig. K.
