Abstract
A hair drying unit suitable for being installed in a room, the hair drying unit having an end device with a body, a first conduit, a second conduit, at least a first opening wherein the first conduit ends, and a second opening wherein the second conduit ends. The end device is suitable for being used in the vicinity of a user's hair. The hair drying unit is a heating/dehumidification system suitably configured to generate an airflow that comes out of one of the two openings of the end device and an airflow that is sucked in from one of the two openings of the end device.

Hair drying unit suitable for being installed in a room;
- said hair drying unit comprising an end device comprising a body;
- said end device comprising a first conduit, a second conduit, at least one first opening in communication with said first conduit and at least one second opening in communication with said second conduit;
- said end device being suitable for being used in the vicinity of a user's hair;
- said hair drying unit comprising a heating/dehumidification system comprising:
- a boxed frame comprising a first chamber and a second chamber;
- said boxed frame comprising a first connection inlet disposed in said first chamber and a second connection inlet disposed in said second chamber;
- each one of said connection inlets being in fluid communication with one of the two conduits of the end device;
- said boxed frame comprising a first opening that puts said first chamber in communication with a room, and a second opening that puts said second chamber in communication with the room;
