Fume hoods are comprised of the hood and a sash.
The primary purpose of laboratory fume hoods is to keep toxic or irritating vapors out of the general laboratory working area.
A secondary purpose is to serve as a shield between the worker and the equipment when there is the possibility of an explosive reaction, or to protect the specimen.
The Sash
Sash is the term used to describe the movable glass panel that covers the face area of a fume hood, which opens and closes to maximize access and minimize airflow. Sashes can be vertical, horizontal, or combination of the two
things to remember about the sash:
• Work at least six inches back from the face of the hood. A stripe on the bench surface is a good reminder.
• Do not let items block sash closure. This affects the airflow.
• Keep the sash height at the level marked for safe use or the level specified in your SOP and always between you and your experiment.
• Close the sash when not working in the hood. This acts as an extra layer of protection should there be an explosion or fire inside the hood.
• Work slowly and remove your arms slowly to reduce the creation of eddy current that may disrupt the containment ability of the hood

The Sash and Airflow
When a person walks by a fume hood, turbulence can be created causing contaminants to be drawn outside the hood. In addition, if the air diffuser is located directly above the fume hood, air turbulence may be created causing contaminants to escape into the room.
The airflow into the room has an effect on the fume hood. Close all doors to maintain the negative pressure of the lab with respect to the corridor.
This ensures that any contaminants in the lab will be exhausted through the fume hood and not escape into the hallway.
Inside the Fume Hood
While working inside a fume hood, there are practices that you should always follow.
•Wear the appropriate work clothes - shoes that cover the entire foot, long pants, and long sleeves if the lab coat does not cover from shoulder to wrist.
•Don (wear) a clean, buttoned lab coat or disposable gown and the appropriate gloves for the work.
• Always use splash goggles, and wear a full-face shield if there is possibility of an explosion or eruption
• Hoods should be evaluated by the user before each use to ensure adequate face velocities and the absence of excessive turbulence.
• In case of exhaust system failure while using a hood, shut off all services and accessories and lower the sash completely. Leave the area immediately.Why do fume hoods use so much energy?
It's the air being sucked through the fume hood, not the fume hood itself that consumes so much energy. For health and safety reasons, labs use 100% outside air which must be heated or cooled for comfort before it is brought into the lab. In addition to the energy required to condition the air, a significant amount of additional electricity is required to run large fans to move the air through the building and through the fume hoods.
How does shutting the sash save energy?
Most fume hoods at Stanford are variable air volume (VAV), meaning that the fume hoods are designed to vary the air flow based on how wide open the sash height is. Sash position is connected to the building's ventilation system so that a building's fan speed and the volume of air moved is reduced when the sash is lowered.
Is it safe to shut the sash?
The sash is an important safety barrier between the fume hood interior and the laboratory, protecting the lab user. Sashes should be opened only to set up or modify an experiment. At all other times, shutting the sash is safest. When the sash is shut there is still some air flow through the hood to remove any fumes.
How do I remind myself and my roommates to close the sash?
You can post a sticker, like the one shown in the picture below, to remind yourself and your lab mates to close the sash when not in use. The sticker also educates new fume hood users tha a lower sash is safer, and that the sash should only be open when setting up and modifying experiments.
What other fume hood practices can reduce my energy consumption?
• Never use a fume hood just for storing chemicals - they belong in a safety cabinet, which doesn't require huge volumes of air.
• If your fume hood has an occupancy switch, turn it off when not in use.
• If your group is no longer using a specific fume hood, consider having it locked and de-commissioned so air no longer flows through it.
