Continental ExpressDry Turnout Gear Dryer, 6 Sets

Continental ExpressDry 6 Set Turnout Gear Dryer

The Continental ExpressDry 6 Set Turnout Gear Dryer are engineered to safely and quickly dry personal protective equipment.

Gear Laundering for Fire Departments: Firefighters know dirty gear is dangerous. As more particles and chemicals accumulate on protective gear, it gradually loses its effectiveness — putting firefighters and those they come into contact with at risk. Gear designed to protect becomes hazardous when dirty because it reflects less radiant heat, becomes flammable, and can even conduct electricity.

Continental Girbau’s Express Dry Gear Dryers, featuring touchscreen controls, safely and efficiently dry up to 8 sets of turnout gear and accessories using ambient air. Express Dry units align with gear manufacturer drying requirements and comply with NFPA 1851 recommendations for properly drying PPE.

Target Hard-to-Dry Areas

The patented design uses powerful fans that push air through gear from the inside out — effectively drying hard-to-reach areas and vapor barriers that are prone to mold and mildew if not dried properly. The unique PPE drying system limits air loss and prevents airflow from following the path of least resistance, resulting in faster, more efficient drying and the ability to dry more suits in the same amount of time.

Flexibility For All Gear Components

Express Dry XD Gear Dryers come fully loaded with up to 8 helmet dryers and up to 24 component ports for drying helmets, gloves, boots, face masks, SCBAs, and more. Keeping you dry and comfortable is our job.

Touch Screen Control for Drying with Ambient Air 

The touchscreen control provides users with immediate visual access to drying status, remaining dry time, and full customization of time and temperature. The interface includes simple, clearly defined icons with preset drying times, a continuous drying option, and a custom timer for unique departmental needs.

When in use, the screen clearly displays drying status and a countdown timer. The touchscreen is extremely durable and features a smooth, easy-to-clean flat surface.

Feature: Structurally Superior Construction

Heavy-duty casters provide mobility, while the top-quality steel frame and steel air passages ensure longevity. Continental Express Dry Gear Dryers are built to be structurally superior and are backed by an industry-leading warranty.

Inspect Before you Sign:

Please forward this information to the proper department so they know what to do when the shipment arrives.

Because of the size of the unit, damage may occur inside the packaging due to carrier mishandling. Be aware that damage may be present even if the outer packaging appears to be in good condition.

Inspect all items and all sides of the shipment before signing the delivery tablet/receipt. Packaging should be fully opened to view all sides of the product. You have 30 minutes to inspect before additional charges may apply, as the driver cannot be detained for extended periods.

If the driver refuses full inspection, do not sign the delivery tablet/receipt. Ask to speak with the local freight terminal manager and request that the shipment be marked as damaged due to inspection not being allowed or refuse the shipment entirely.

• If contents are in good condition, sign and date the delivery tablet/receipt.

• If contents or packaging are damaged, write “DAMAGED” on the receipt with detailed notes of the damage, then sign and date.

Accept undamaged shipments when possible and only refuse damaged items. The driver should provide a copy of the receipt for your records.

Please contact us for assistance before the driver leaves. If the shipment is damaged and the receipt is signed clear—with no notation of damage—any rights to full payment on a freight claim may be void.

The factory will not and cannot pay for freight company damages.
