Langley, BC (March 9, 2009) - Williams Direct Dryers™ has been a pioneer in the field of industrial, commercial, and residential electric dryers used to dry turnout gear, hazmat suits, cold water rescue suits, facepieces, helmets, boots, gloves, and other PPE gear for twenty years. Two decades and the company still sets the industry standard for portable and wall mount forced air dryers by designing them in strict accordance with the NFPA's drying recommendations for drying fire fighting ensembles.
After twenty years Williams Direct Dryers'™ 110 or 220 electric wall mount and portable dryers continue to evolve. In January of 2009 the company added a fully enclosed blower to their models, and also recently addressed the issue of cities and townships demanding more energy efficiency by including an energy management cycle on their dryers. Where appropriate, this energy management switch can reduce energy consumption by over 80%. According to Williams Direct Dryer's Des Mayne, these additions are in accordance with the company's revolutionary approach to warmed air drying.
"The difference in our dryers is that the warmed drying air is delivered directly to the toughest part of the clothing to dry those areas first; ensuring safe and even drying," Mayne explains. "For example boots are dried from the toe back, and gloves from the fingers back. Our turnout gear dryers surround the inside and outside of the coat and jacket with an envelope of moving air. As for our cold water rescue and hazmat suits, they are hung upside down and gently warmed air is directed to the inside boot and glove portions and at the body of the suits."
Williams Direct™ wall mount and portable dryers require only one foot of horizontal space per gear drying station. Each is hand built from American components, with a superstructure made of welded heavy duty steel construction then powder coated to ensure an exceptionally long life. In addition, all Williams Direct Dryers™ are designed to plug into any standard 110 volt circuit; making them compatible with older fire houses.
Williams Direct is proud to count many fire departments all over North America as well as the U.S. Army, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, Navy, and NASA as valued and satisfied customers. To learn more call or visit www.directdryers.com.
