Installation & Maintenance
The Aluminium Velo Ionshield offers simplified installation compared to heavier steel alternatives. At 9.55kg, it can be mounted to standard commercial washroom walls with reduced structural reinforcement requirements. The unit connects to Australian 240V electrical systems and includes mounting hardware designed for various wall types. The lightweight aluminium construction is especially beneficial for installations in older buildings with limited wall load capacity.
Maintenance follows a straightforward schedule to ensure optimal performance. The water collection tank typically requires weekly emptying in high-traffic environments, while the HEPA filter should be inspected quarterly and replaced annually under normal conditions. The aluminium finish resists fingerprints and cleaning chemicals, maintaining its appearance with minimal upkeep. Regular maintenance ensures consistent performance across all three key functions: hand drying, air purification, and odour control.
Care Instructions
- Exterior Cleaning: Wipe with non-abrasive aluminium-safe cleaners using a soft cloth
- Water Tank: Empty and sanitize weekly in commercial environments
- Filter Maintenance: Inspect monthly; replace according to usage level
- Air Vents: Keep intake and exhaust areas clear of obstruction
- Sensor Area: Clean gently to ensure reliable operation
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the aluminium finish perform in Australian beachside installations?
The aluminium finish provides excellent corrosion resistance in Australia's coastal environments. Unlike standard metal finishes, this specially treated aluminium withstands salt-laden air with minimal maintenance, making it ideal for beachside hotels and restaurants along the Queensland coast and New South Wales shoreline. The material maintains its appearance even after years of exposure to maritime conditions.
What makes the Ionshield suitable for Australia's airborne allergen challenges?
The Ionshield's negative ion technology specifically addresses Australia's notorious airborne allergens, including the prevalent Ryegrass pollen and Alternaria fungal spores that trigger seasonal allergies across Victoria and New South Wales. The negative ions attach to these positively charged particles, causing them to become too heavy to remain airborne and fall to surfaces where they can be cleaned rather than inhaled.
Does the aluminium model qualify for Australian commercial energy efficiency incentives?
Yes, the Aluminium Ionshield qualifies for energy efficiency rebates available through several Australian state programs. Despite its 1760W rating, the unit's 6-8 second drying cycle means total energy per use is significantly lower than conventional 30-second dryers. Businesses in New South Wales can access the Energy Savings Scheme certificates, while Victorian operations may qualify under the Victorian Energy Efficiency Certificate program.
