Troubleshooting

Dryer not starting

Ensure the unit is properly connected to a live power source. Check the circuit breaker. Verify that the power switch on the unit is turned on.

Low airflow or slow drying

Check if the HEPA filter is clogged and needs cleaning or replacement. Ensure there are no obstructions in the air intake or outlet vents.

Water leaking from the unit

Confirm that the water collection tank is correctly seated and not overflowing. Empty the tank if it is full. Inspect the tank for any cracks or damage.

UV-C light not activating

The UV-C light operates in conjunction with the drying cycle. If the dryer is functioning but the light is not visible, consult the manual or contact support. Note that UV-C light is typically not visible to the human eye.

Unit is noisy

Ensure the unit is securely mounted to the wall. Check for any foreign objects that may have entered the air path. If noise persists, contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Gorillo Junior typically requires professional installation due to its electrical power and water drainage connections. It should be mounted securely to a wall at an appropriate height according to local regulations and accessibility standards. Ensure a dedicated power circuit is available.

Compatibility: This dryer is designed for standard commercial washroom electrical supplies. The water collection tank is internal and does not require external plumbing beyond its occasional emptying.

The HEPA filter should be inspected periodically and replaced as needed (consult manufacturer guidelines for replacement intervals). The water collection tank should be emptied regularly to prevent odor and maintain hygiene. The UV-C lamps are designed for long-term use but will require replacement after their lifespan is reached; refer to the product manual for specific maintenance schedules and replacement parts.
