Installing your Valiryo Body Dryer is simple, much like hanging a mirror with lighting on the wall. However, before installation, one important decision you need to make is where to place it. The general recommendation is to install Valiryo inside the shower, as this provides the best user experience. The bathroom, and more specifically the shower area, is the most common place where the Valiryo Body Dryer is installed. However, there are other uses and needs that might require a different location, without losing the benefits of the body dryer, whether in your bathroom or in other shared spaces.
Installing Valiryo Body Dryer in the shower
The bathroom is the most common place for installing the Valiryo Body Dryer, but it’s not the only one. It’s important to highlight that installing Valiryo inside the shower is completely safe, as it has an IP56 certification, which ensures water resistance and safe operation even under direct water impact.
Of course, installing it inside the shower is not always possible. For instance, many bathrooms have bathtubs instead of showers, but this doesn’t present a problem. Valiryo is fully compatible with any space. Even if it's installed next to the shower or bathtub, it will still provide optimal drying performance. Many customers install it in various locations, such as beside the shower or tub, and still enjoy excellent results.
Positioning inside the shower: Total flexibility!
If you're installing your Valiryo Body Dryer inside the shower, the ideal position is perpendicular to the shower faucet. This placement ensures a more efficient and comfortable drying process. However, if you prefer to place it opposite, that’s perfectly fine. Valiryo is designed to handle direct water impact without compromising its performance, so you can install the dryer anywhere within the shower.
Just make sure there’s enough space for the person to move comfortably while drying, ensuring the process is as relaxing and effective as possible. This gives you the flexibility to create a “wellness tunnel” within the shower, with a specific space for washing and another for drying, ensuring a continuous wellness experience and a more effective drying process.
Ideal installation height for Valiryo Body Dryer
One of the most important factors when installing Valiryo is the column height. If you have 220 cm or more of available height in the installation space, you can choose the 218 cm model. If the available height is less than 220 cm, you’ll need to go for the shorter 195 cm model.
Choosing the right column height depends on the available space, but it also ensures comfort during drying. The 218 cm model provides a larger drying area, making it more suitable for users of varying heights and offering a more comfortable experience. The 195 cm model is designed for spaces with limited height, so it's the ideal choice if you can’t install the 218 cm model due to space constraints.
Airflow space
It's important to make sure the air vents on the dryer stay clear. If anything blocks the airflow, the motor won’t perform at its best, and the drying process won’t be as efficient. Keeping the vents unobstructed is key to making sure the dryer works properly.
Other installation locations
While the shower is the most common spot, Valiryo can also be installed in other spaces. It has been used in swimming pools, spas, gyms, tanning salons, dance studios, and more. However, Valiryo Body Dryer can even be installed outdoors, where it performs well. However, it’s crucial to avoid exposing the motor to direct sunlight, as prolonged exposure can negatively affect its performance and lifespan. If you decide to install Valiryo outside, make sure to protect the motor by covering it with a suitable shield or placing it in a shaded area. This will help keep it functioning optimally and ensure its durability over time.
