Drier air blow off deflector - Gnawrocki1 - 11-10-2023

I just replaced my drier because it had a few issues (leaky seal, and sometimes sticking blow-off system) from age....it was original.

The unit that I had and purchased was a WABCO 1200 to make installation easy.  The new unit seems to blow off much more air than my old one.  I am guessing that the old unit was semi-plugged.  

The amount of dust that blew off of my driveway was insane! It got me thinking of making some sort of deflector as I do stop in dirty/sandy areas often.  

I happened upon a website of a guy who makes them (theairdeflector.com).  Seems like an easy item that will help with reducing the dust bowl when pressure blow off happens.

I got the deflector yesterday, and had it installed in 5 minutes.  I was able to reach in the tag wheel well and install it without going under the coach.  

I will verify operation this weekend, but it sure seems like it will work great.
