Dyson Airblade Filters

The Dyson Airblade Hand Dryer in action


Question:

Hi,

How are you? My name is Sandra C... and I have a quick question about one of the Dyson Airblade hand dryers. The air coming out of the dryer is not as strong as it used to be, I have checked the air intake and replaced this and made sure there are no obstructions. Do you have any other suggestions?

Regards


Hi Sandra.

Answer:

Hi, Sandra,

I am fine, thank you.  And after a long hiatus, The Hand Dryer Expert is back in the saddle.  When you say "I have checked the air intake," are you referring to the filter?  At the bottom of the standard Dyson Airblade AB14 hand dryer (and you may have one of the older ones between AB01 and AB06) is the Dyson Airblade HEPA filter.  You will need a Dyson Wrench to open the door at the bottom.  If that filter has become clogged, then you will want to replace it.  My guess is that this will solve your slower-moving-air-problem.  

If it does not, call Dyson customer service directly.  They can trouble shoot for you.  The Dyson Airblade has a 5 year warranty.  In the first year of the warranty, they will send a technician to your location. In the USA, the number is 888-DYSON-AB.  In other countries, just go to the Dyson website and you will find their customer service number.  

Best of luck.
