The hose locks to the dryer with a convenient, unique half-twist motion, eliminating the risk of pop-off.
Hermetically isolated switches and electronics are protected from contaminants, while the dual air inlet filtration system protects the motors and other components.
Multiple, twist-on nozzles, including the "air sweep" nozzle, remove water from animals and penetrates dense undercoats with great efficiency and versatility. 10 ft. crushproof hose standard. Available in Black or Blue.
Features at a Glance:
- Two 124CFM Twin Turbine Motors
- Rustproof, dentproof and easy to maintain
- Dual air filtration protects motors and shop air quality
- Noise and vibration dampening enclosures
- Two year limited warranty. Patents pending.
New Variable Speed air control allows for complete control of the air volume and velocity: You get full high speed down to a very low speed, and everything in between! The new dial control means more flexibility in grooming with the ability to cater the air flow to the animal and your grooming needs. Choose full power for large full coated animals, moderate speeds for ears and drying sensitive areas or medium coated breeds and low air volume for small animals, cats or young/sensitive animals.

Can't decide between the AirMax and the EXTREME?
The primary distinction is that the larger motor fan assemblies (in the Extreme) achieve these objectives without having to work so hard which causes the motor to last longer. The current density at the brush to commutator contact point is substantially higher with the Airmax unit which causes the brushes and commutator to wear more rapidly which requires more frequent brush changes and a parallel reduction in general motor life. There is a modest increase in practical air volume (measured at the nozzle) for the Extreme over the Airmax and a slight increase in temperature for the Airmax over the Extreme. This causes the units to have roughly equivalent drying capability with the Extreme having a marginal advantage in penetrating dense undercoats and the Airmax having a slight advantage in colder more humid conditions.
Accordingly, the primary distinction between the two products is generally motor related life expectancy. The Extreme does come with a 10 foot hose as opposed to a 6 foot hose and an extra nozzle as well. The Extreme also outweighs the Airmax dryer by several pounds.
