Professional, household, industrial…. Construction hair dryers differ in power consumption, air flow temperature, and, of course, in price. To choose the right model, focus on the estimated scope of work. A rich jet of hot air speeds up work. But the consumption of electricity also increases significantly - it is advisable to take this into account when choosing a building hair dryer.
There is no need for a functional appliance for housework. The cheapest models are equipped with two modes of operation - low and high temperature and with different air blowing speed. For example, in the first mode, the device produces 300 ° C at a jet pressure of 500 liters per minute; and on the second - 600 ° C and 650 liters per minute. Good devices have a built-in temperature controller. Have worked - lowered the temperature, the hair dryer will cool itself.
With step control, heat and air flow are controlled at the same time. The more smoothly the temperature is set, the easier it is to select the desired operating mode. For such devices, the temperature is switched in steps of 10 or 20 ° C.
ns
Some models have a programming function. This is useful if you often use 2-3 manually configured modes. The hairdryer will "remember" them and you will only switch between them.
Which building hair dryer is better
Hair dryers are completed in different ways, depending on the manufacturer. Look for the golden mean of quality and packaging. We recommend taking into account 2 functionalities.
- Integrated coupling for quick nozzle change
The nozzles become very hot after operation. You cannot take them - you will burn yourself. In such cases, the built-in clutch comes to the rescue: he turned it over, the nozzle jumped out.
- Liquid crystal display and heat stabilizer
They display an accurate graduation of the temperature that is maintained at the outlet of the nozzle. The temperature is regulated with an accuracy of a degree, so such devices are designed for professionals.
Often construction hair dryers are equipped with several nozzles - gear (focusing) and wide-jet. The rest are purchased additionally.

Hair dryer construction: reviews
telek, feedback on Intertool WT-1020: "The hair dryer has 2 adjustments to the air flow rate and a smooth temperature regulator - that's enough. There were no attachments in the kit, I bought a kit on the market. The device is not quite suitable for miniature work: those where you need to climb into the back alleys. But the directional nozzles compensate for this.».
Viacheslav Ermolenko writes about Intertool DT-2416: “I did not check the temperature, but I removed the paint from the concrete walls with a spatula. You can accidentally burn yourself».
Yermolenko comments on DeWalt D26411: “Spared no money, bought this hairdryer. Yes, not cheap, but as they say: "We are not rich enough to buy cheap things." The hairdryer is not afraid of falls, there are many attachments in the kit. The temperature is changed by a convenient switch on the back. Works in two modes with a maximum temperature of 600 ° C. The motor is quiet, the hot air pressure is powerful, it fits well in the hand. In our dormitory, the water in the pipes often freezes, so this hairdryer melts the ice with ease. There was a case: the gas in the cylinder ran out, but there was no electric stove. I took a pot of potatoes and warmed it with a hairdryer, cooked in 20 minutes. Here's an unusual application. DeWalt is a thing that I have never regretted buying».
