Guide prices for sizing a finance agreement, not quotes.

Your supplier quote is what the agreement is written against.

Check EligibilitySalon dryers qualify for the Annual Investment Allowance (AIA), letting you deduct the full cost from taxable profits in the year of purchase. Hire purchase lets you claim capital allowances as you own the asset from day one. Finance lease and operating lease payments are treated as a revenue expense and are usually fully deductible against profits.
Salon hood dryers are bought by hairdressers offering a traditional wet-set or perm service, and demand for this equipment has settled into a smaller, more specialist niche within the wider salon market as many stylists have moved to blow-drying rather than hood drying for most clients. Because the unit cost is relatively low, most salons buy one or two dryers outright, and finance is mainly used when fitting out a full drying bank of several units at once for a salon that still offers wet-set services as a core part of its business, or when the dryers are one item within a wider salon fit-out. Replacement tends to follow wear on the heating element and timer controls after years of daily use.
