Laboratory Fume Hoods

Laboratory fume hoods are exhaust hoods specifically designed to draw air away from the working area to protect laboratory operators from inhaling hazardous air contaminants such as carbon monoxide or other toxic chemicals. There are two main types of chemical fume hoods. Ductless laboratory vent hoods filter air through activated charcoal and HEPA filters and release cleaned exhaust in the laboratory room. These hoods usually have greater portability and higher CFM capacity than the ducted lab hoods. Ducted lab ventilation hoods draw fumes inside the building’s exhaust system where they are treated and then released outside. We offer a selection of laboratory fume hoods available in both configurations featuring different width options and construction characteristics. Most of the models can be customized for your specific requirements with additional features such as duct ports, fans, lighting, power outlets and topless stands.
