The arse dryer admittedly is the weak spot of the bidet. They can't be exactly aligned with your butt since that's where the water nozzles are placed; they're a bit off to the side. Still, the weakest point on a superstar of a product, it's worth it.

1. There's a 'nozzle cleaning' function that cleans the nozzles without the jets firing water at you, so you can use a toilet brush to help it along if there are stubborn deposits.
2. a) The electric ones (like mine) have inline heaters, like a miniature tankless water heater for your butt. No cold water touches your arse unless you set the temperature to cold.
b) The unpowered ones, you can use a T-adapter using the cold tank water supply and the hot water at your faucet, running that to the bidet instead of using the tank water supply alone. It's a bit more work to do it this way and most people either do a powered one or make do with the cold water line only. The unpowered ones tend to have really strong water pressure though, so they're still very effective.
3. If you don't already have a socket close enough to the toilet, yeah, either get an electrician to do it, or do it yourself and install a GFIC socket nearby. I did it myself as part of my adventure mapping out the electrical panel for my new condo. Alternately, yeah, get a plumber to run the hot water line for you (or, again, DIY it).
