Product Description
The Dryflow AquaDry AirTap is a deck-mounted unit that combines handwashing and hand drying in a single fixture positioned directly over the sink. Rather than moving from a tap to a separate wall-mounted dryer, users wash and dry in one place without touching any surface — water flows, then warm air follows, all triggered automatically by sensor.
In practice, this kind of integrated unit suits washrooms where throughput matters and hygiene standards are closely managed. The touchless operation removes a common cross-contamination point, and because there is no separate dryer unit, there is no dripping water carried across the floor between the two. The solid brass construction with chrome-plated finish holds up well under frequent daily use, and the brushless motor is built for longevity without the maintenance demands of brushed alternatives.
From an operational standpoint, the key advantages are straightforward:
- Touchless wash-and-dry cycle reduces surface contact and supports hygiene compliance
- HEPA-filtered air output keeps the drying process clean
- Automatic energy-saving mode keeps running costs in check during quieter periods
- Low noise output keeps washroom environments calm, relevant in front-of-house settings
- Plug-in back plate system simplifies installation and any future servicing
Installation requires a deck surface capable of supporting the unit's weight, along with access to hot and cold water supplies and a mains electrical connection. The deck-mounted configuration means it fits over most standard commercial sink bowls, but the sink surround will need to accommodate the base plate dimensions — worth confirming before ordering. This is not a wall-hung unit, so wall-mount washroom layouts will need a different configuration.
This unit is well suited to staff washrooms, customer-facing toilet facilities, and food preparation areas where a combined wash-dry solution helps maintain a clean, efficient routine. For very high-footfall sites with rapid successive use requirements, it is worth discussing expected daily cycle volumes with us to confirm this is the right capacity for your site.
If you have questions about installation compatibility or want to talk through whether this fits your washroom setup, we're happy to help before you commit to an order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The AirTap uses a plug-in back plate system, which is designed to simplify installation. However, any electrical work in a washroom environment must be carried out by a qualified electrician in line with UK wiring regulations — a standard plug connection in a washroom context still needs to be properly assessed for zone compliance.
- Yes, the touchless operation and HEPA-filtered drying make it a practical option for food prep handwash stations, where hygiene standards are particularly important. You'll need to confirm that the sink deck can accept the unit and that water and power supplies are accessible at that location.
- The sensor detects hand presence beneath the unit and initiates the wash-and-dry sequence automatically. A safety timeout function is built in to prevent the unit running continuously if something is left beneath it, which also helps manage energy consumption in busy or unsupervised environments.
