How Germy are Hand Air Dryers?

Public restrooms have always been a hotbed for germs, but have you ever stopped to think about the hygiene of those hand air dryers you use to dry your hands? We recently conducted an eye-opening experiment that exposed just how germy hand air dryers can be.

Hand Dryers vs. Paper Towels

Hand air dryers were introduced as a more environmentally friendly alternative to paper towels, but their cleanliness has come into question. Many people assume that these machines are sterile because they blow hot air to dry your hands. However, PhoneSoap's TikTok video challenges this assumption in a shocking way.

In the viral TikTok video titled “How Germy are hand air dryers?” we took samples from several public hand dryers, including those found in gas stations, restaurants, and stores.

The Importance of Hygiene in Public Restrooms

PhoneSoap's TikTok video serves as a vital reminder of the importance of maintaining hygiene, even in everyday scenarios. Hand air dryers, while convenient, may not be as sanitary as we once believed. This video highlights the need for regular cleaning and maintenance of these machines and encourages individuals to consider alternative hand-drying methods like paper towels in high-traffic public restrooms.
