XLERATOR® Hand Dryers – In Stock & Ready to Ship

The XLERATOR® by Excel Dryer is the original high-speed hand dryer that set the standard for fast, cost-saving performance. Made in the U.S.A., the XLERATOR quickly became the gold standard for performance and durability. Today, it’s trusted by airports, stadiums, and schools nationwide—and it’s the hand dryer of choice for America’s biggest brands like Walmart, McDonald’s, Costco, Target, and Whole Foods. The XLERATOR® is backed by a 7-year warranty and an average lifespan of 10 years.

How the XLERATOR® Compares

The XLERATOR® delivers what facility managers actually care about: speed, cost savings, and compliance options. Feature-wise, it offers an 8-second verified dry time, adjustable wattage (500–1500W) that can cut energy costs by up to 80% compared to conventional commercial hand dryers, and customizable controls for speed, sound, and heat settings (High, Medium, Low, Off) to match any restroom environment. By default, the XLERATOR is not ADA-compliant as the unit extends beyond 4 inches from the wall. Excel Dryer solved this with the ADA recess kit (see below), which makes the unit fully ADA-compliant. For customers who want a slim-profile, ADA-compliant hand dryer out of the box, check out the ThinAir® hand dryer model from Excel Dryer, which requires no recess kit. For customers focused on maximum energy savings, the XLERATOReco® operates without heat and uses just 500 watts, making it one of the most energy-efficient high-speed commercial hand dryers available. For facilities prioritizing hygiene, Excel Dryer created two (2) models: (i) XLERATOR® HEPA and (ii) XLERATOReco® HEPA, which come with built-in HEPA filters that remove 99.999% of viruses and bacteria from the airstream before it touches your hands.
