INTRODUCTION
The Studebaker AirPath is a high-velocity 360° dryer for use in
commercial carpet or hard-surface floor cleaning to dry floors
more quickly.
The AirPath features:

•
8-blade axial fan
•
1 HP motor
•

•

HOW TO USE THE AIRPATH
The AirPath is designed to blow air across wet surfaces for
speedy drying. The high-volume airflow increases the rate of
evaporation.
The AirPath will dry an area approximately 12 × 12 ft. (3.6 ×
3.6 m). Place the AirPath in the center of the area. When that
section is dry, move it to the center of the next section to be
dried.
Ensure that all wet surfaces receive good airflow. Open interior
doors to maintain good air circulation. Doors may need to be
braced to prevent them from blowing shut.
