K-9 Muffler & Heavy Duty Filter (HDF) Bundle

K-9 Muffler & Heavy Duty Filter (HDF) Bundle is designed for professional groomers who want to significantly reduce operating noise without sacrificing airflow performance. This bundle combines the K-9 Muffler with the required Heavy Duty Filter (HDF) to deliver quieter drying sessions while maintaining the power and reliability of your K-9 dryer.

By installing the muffler inside the Heavy Duty Filter, groomers can experience a noticeable reduction in sound levels, helping create a more comfortable environment for both pets and staff. This solution is especially valuable in high-volume salons, mobile grooming setups, and enclosed workspaces where noise management matters.

Professional Noise Reduction

When properly installed, this system can reduce dryer noise by up to 13 decibels. For example, when used with a K-9 II dryer, sound levels may decrease from approximately 92 dB to 79 dB when measured 24 inches from the unit. This reduction helps lower stress for sensitive pets and supports a more comfortable daily working environment.

Importantly, performance remains largely unaffected. Airflow reduction is minimal at approximately 2–3%, and operating temperature increases by only about 2° F, preserving the drying efficiency groomers depend on.

Compatibility & Installation

The muffler must be installed inside the Heavy Duty Filter (HDF) to function properly. The HDF is required for use with the muffler and ensures correct fitment and performance.

• Compatible With: All K-9 Dryers
• Mini, Fluffer, K-9 I, K-9 II: Requires 1 Heavy Duty Filter + 1 Muffler
• K-9 III: Requires 2 Heavy Duty Filters + 2 Mufflers

This bundle provides a practical solution for groomers who want quieter operation without compromising the professional-grade performance of their K-9 equipment.
