Double K Industries proudly presents its Challengair EXTREME Animal Dryer. The EXTREME dryer has greater effectiveness, air volume, velocity, versatility and value with less noise than any product in its category. Featuring two, 124 CFM, twin-turbine motor/fan assemblies mounted in elastomeric noise and vibration damping enclosures. The clamshell High Impact ABS housing allows easy access to motors and components for brush changes and service and is also impact resistant, rustproof and dent-proof. 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.
The Challengair Extreme is also available in a Variable Speed air control model. This allows for complete control of the air volume and velocity: full high speed to a very low speed. The dial control means more flexibility in grooming with the ability to cater to the airflow to the animal and your grooming needs. Choose full power for large heavy-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.
IMPORTANT: Do not use variable control with a power inverter system.

Distinctions between the Airmax and the Extreme dryer models.
The motor/fan assemblies in the two products are different with the Extreme model having more powerful 5.7 inch diameter motor/fan assemblies and the Airmax having less powerful 5.1 inch diameter motor/fan assemblies. It must be understood here that power is defined in this circumstance as motor generated torque. So, while each motor/fan assembly produces approximately 123 CFM free air (on the bench with no resistive elements at sea level) the 5.7 inch unit (Extreme) does so at a much lower speed (22,500 rpm) as compared to the Airmax at approximately 32,000 rpm. The amount of air pressure or vacuum (measured in water lift) that each unit produces in a free air condition and with the resistive elements introduced (dryer housing, filters, hoses, novels etc.) are also roughly equivalent. 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.

I need a blaster with heat option. Can I get an extreme variable with heat?
Hi, unfortunately, we don't have this option available.
These are our current lead times per brand:
Note that Covid-19 has created significant logistical issues for our manufacturers and lead times are longer than normal. Also, a large portion of our items are made to order - this helps manufacturers keep costs down, ensuring a better price for consumers, and also to customize each order. In some situations, rush orders may be available. Please contact us at cs@petprosupplyco.com or 1-855-PET-PRO1 to verify total fulfillment time for your order.
Note: if the lead time is too long for the product you wanted, take a look at our list of fast-shipping brands per product category on our Fast Shipping Page.
Transit time after shipment: please add 2-5 days for lighter and smaller items shipped via regular carrier (Fedex, UPS, USPS) and add 5-10 days for heavier items shipped via LTL freight truck. Transit time depends on distance from the point of origin. All of our items ship from inside the United States. Please note the times below are listed in business days.
Our policy for free shipping on orders over $499:
- Items from Lucky Kennels, TK Kennels and Little Cottage Co. do not qualify for free shipping (their items are much larger and heavier than typical orders); the shipping cost for items from these brands will be shown at check-out
- International orders (get in touch for a custom quote including shipping costs)
- Orders shipped outside the contiguous United States to Alaska, Hawaii or other territories (get in touch for a custom quote including shipping costs)
- Very large items or very large orders that must be shipped via Freight that are subject to price surges by freight companies; though these situations are rare, if this occurs we will notify you of any potential additional costs and give you the option to keep the order or receive a refund.
Order Confirmation
As soon as you place your order you will receive an order confirmation e-mail and we will immediately notify the appropriate supplier to begin processing your order.
Item Availability
While we almost always have the most up-to-date inventory information, there are rare occasions in which an item may be unavailable or on back-order. If the item is unavailable, we'll let you know and give you the option of receiving a refund or ordering a similar item. If the item is on back-order, we will contact you directly and provide you with an updated shipment date. From there you may either choose to cancel the order or continue with the updated shipment date. Certain made-to-order items may have a longer than normal lead time. If this is the case, the lead time will be specified on this Shipping tab.
If you would like to confirm the availability or potential lead time of an item prior to purchasing, please email us at cs@petprosupplyco.com or call us at 1-855-PET-PRO1.
Delivery Estimates
For standard orders and for items in stock, we normally ship within 1 to 3 business days (as per the table above) and you can expect to receive your goods in 3 to 10 business days total. Fulfillment times vary widely if your order must be customized, made to order, is for large or heavy items, or must be shipped by LTL freight truck (as opposed to standard carriers such as Fedex or UPS). Please consult the "Shipping" tab for each specific product, where we list current lead times. Please note also that Covid-19 has severely impacted global supply chains and several of our manufacturers are experiencing extended lead times. If you are not sure about shipping times for your product or require a rush order, please contact us at 1-855-PET-PRO1 or cs@petprosupplyco.com.
Shipping Confirmation
We ship from warehouses all across the country, depending on the item(s) ordered and your location. Depending on the physical size of your order, items will ship either by freight or a regular parcel carrier such as USPS, Fed Ex, or UPS.
LTL FREIGHT SHIPPING INFORMATION
LTL (less-than-truckload) Freight is used when shipments are 120 lb+ or for oversized equipment, which results in a truck with a large container delivering your order. Our freight carrier will contact you once your order makes it to the distribution center closest to the delivery address specified, and set up an appointment time for delivery.
Pet Pro Supply Co. Free LTL Freight Shipping - Curbside Delivery
Our standard Free Freight Shipping option for LTL deliveries is curbside, which is to a delivery to a Commercial Address and does not include a liftgate. If your order is to be shipped freight, you will have the option to specify whether the item will be delivered to a Residential, Limited Access, or Commercial address. If there is no option to select a shipping location, then this cost is already included in the price.
We strongly recommend adding the optional Liftgate for all deliveries to locations without a loading dock or forklift.
Freight Delivery Locations
This option specifies whether the delivery location is a Commercial, Residential, Residential Business, or a Limited Access address.
- Commercial - These addresses are those defined by our freight carriers and/or zoned by local municipalities as commercial sites. Typically these addresses are zoned as commercial real estate or are used exclusively for business. Most commercial sites have tractor-trailer access and a loading dock.
- Residential - If the address used a residence, select this option. This includes Apartment/Condo complexes and dormitories.
- Residential Business - Any business being operated from a home, apartment, or other dwelling where people live on the premises is considered to be a Residential Business.
- Limited Access - Locations where deliveries are restricted, limited, or very far from a distribution center. Examples include:
- Place of Worship
- Restricted Areas - Secure Research Facilities, Military Bases/Installations, Correctional Facilities, Government Buildings
- Farms, Ranches, and Rural Areas
- Recreational Areas - Camps, Parks, Fairs, Carnivals, etc.
- Individual Storage Units
- Sites - Convention Centers, Construction Sites, Mines
- Schools and Universities
- Commercial establishments not open to the walk-in public during normal business hours
- Farms, Ranches, and Rural Areas
- Recreational Areas - Camps, Parks, Fairs, Carnivals, etc.
- Individual Storage Units
- Sites - Convention Centers, Construction Sites, Mines
- Schools and Universities
- Commercial establishments not open to the walk-in public during normal business hours
Freight Liftgate
A liftgate is a hydraulic lift that is attached to the back of a truck that can lower freight to ground level. Freight carriers prevent their drivers from assisting with the unloading of heavy equipment other than using a liftgate to ground level.
We highly recommend any delivery address without a loading dock, select this option.
However, please know that for certain very long items, such as kennels over 6' in length, a Liftgate will not be able to bring the entire order down to ground level. Please have the necessary manpower available to receive your items with limited delay to the driver.
