Airblade dB Hand Dryer
Popular and effective, but also a noisemaker in commercial restrooms, the Dyson Airblade has just become 50% quieter, thanks to engineering and design tweaks. These include a double-scallop design that increases the distance between the two colliding sheets of air that the reshaped ends dispense, an overhanging lip on the aperture's front that changes the angle at which the air exits, and a silencer that eliminates specific motor tones. The enhanced design has an estimated noise level of 82 decibels.
