That's only if you assume unlimited paper towel stations. In reality hand drying is the bottle neck. So if every sink has its own dedicated dryer it will speed things up.
- r00fus 14y agoDon't ignore the folks who actually don't want to airdry their hands. I soap, wash, shake and wipe my hands in my pockets as I walk out the door if I'm in a hurry.
- lttlrck 14y ago"every sink has its own dedicated dryer" Exactly. Sinks seem to always outnumber dryers by a wide margin.
- epo 14y agoBut you wouldn't get a queue for paper towels. People would grab 2 or 3 towels and move aside.
- tocomment 14y agoMaybe but there's a bit of a shuffle getting around people who have grabbed towels. And there are always the people who stand by towels to dry because that's where the trash can is. Actually, I guess separating the towel dispensers and trash cans in existing bathrooms would be a smart efficiency move since it would encourage people to grab a towel and keep moving.
