Filtration Technology

Fume hoods with advanced filtering technology can reduce both capital and operating costs in new and renovated science facilities. Head-end supply and exhaust systems are reduced due to decreased air flow demand, and operating costs are reduced due to lower heating, cooling and fan energy requirements. Undergraduate chemistry teaching laboratories are excellent candidates for this advanced filtration technology, as the range of chemicals typically used in this application falls within the safe spectrum the filters can handle.
