In any work environment, employers need to consider environmental controls before ever putting an employee in personal protective equipment, such as a respirator, to protect them from dangerous contaminants. A fume extraction system should be one of the first steps to minimize employees' exposure of chemicals and particulates. However, choosing a fume hood is more complicated than just selecting a product out of a catalog.
To start, a thorough hazard analysis needs to be done to determine exactly which chemicals or contaminants need to be removed. This involves consulting Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) to determine exactly which chemicals are present in the workplace. Then, you should do air monitoring to determine the concentrations of the contaminants to which workers are exposed. There are detector tubes, monitoring badges, and digital equipment that can help determine your concentration levels, or you can contract a local industrial hygienist to perform the monitoring. Once you have all of the pertinent data, you can begin to look at the different types of fume extraction systems that may be appropriate.
Ducted Hoods
Ducted hoods are ventilated enclosures that have ducting to connect to the outside so contaminants are pulled out of the building. This type of system is considered the safest for the worker and the easiest to maintain for the employer. Ducted hoods usually consist of a base, a work surface, the hood itself, a blower, and the ducting necessary to get the air outside.
It is important for an engineer or HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning) specialist to determine whether your room or area has enough air to "feed" the hood's needs. If the room's air supply is insufficient to provide the necessary volume of air to the hood, the room might create a suction that can pull shut doors that open out of the room or slam open doors that open into the room. Lack of air also puts a drain on heating or air-conditioning systems. In those instances, HVAC specialists might need to work with you to provide a source of "make-up" air to keep the room's air supply balanced. This can require an additional blower system to pump air into the room before it can be pulled into the fume hood.

Laboratory fume hoods can be fabricated from different materials and include specific surface types, such as stainless steel, fiberglass, PVC or even polypropylene.
Chemical fume hoods are a mainstay for most research and educational labs. They protect users from chemical and radiological exposure. Ideal if you plan on conducting experiments that use toxic or volatile chemicals to lower the chances of inhalation.
Laminar flow hoods protect the samples from contamination. They do not offer lab personnel any protection; thus, you must not use them when working with toxic or infectious chemicals.
Demonstration or educational hoods: These are optimized for teaching. An example is the double-faced fume hoods, which have entrances on both sides, allowing for 360-degree viewing.
Biological Safety Cabinets (BSCs) have a different application and do not fall within the fume hood category. They are, however, a must-have for labs that handle viral microbes and infectious diseases.
How to Choose the Right Size for Your Fume Hood Blower
Next, you'll need to decide what size you'll need for your operations. This refers to the power of the fume hood blower and is essential to ensuring your equipment transfers enough air to keep your lab free of contamination.
It's worth noting that choosing the most robust blower is not immediately the best option. If a blower is too powerful, it could strain the ductwork and create turbulence.
Calculating the required power isn't easy. You'll need to consider the static pressure present in your duct system. This is calculated based on the diameter, duct length, number of bends, and velocity at which the fume will operate.
Talk to your manufacturer or reach out to CFI and consult a fume hood expert for the right choice.
Exhausting tempered air from your fume hood is often one of the most costly energy uses for laboratories.
That's why depending on your operations, you might benefit from a blower with multiple speed settings that will allow you to alleviate the burden of these costs.
Intelli-sense multi-speed blowers can operate at up to three speeds which are programmed through a control box. This is located on top of the hood.
A blower with this function is very versatile. It could operate at lower speeds during the night, using the least amount of air. More extensive labs that operate on a constant volume can instead use belt-driven single-speed blowers.
To ensure a safe exhaust system, you need to consider the correct material for your ductwork.
Your ducting should be compatible with local fire codes. Most importantly, make sure it's compatible with the chemicals it will be exposed to in your lab. Most commonly, duct systems will be fashioned from:
Which type of blower you need depends on the intended use. If you are venting non-toxic materials, for example, you could use a steel blower coated with epoxy.
If the purpose is to mix acids, you will need an acid-resistant blower. PVC is often the best material choice for perchloric acids and other corrosive operations.
Where the chemicals in your lab are moderately or highly corrosive, fiberglass is also a good option. If your work is volatile, there are even blowers with explosion-proofing and those that are resistant to sparks.
These fume hood blowers will often come with an enclosed motor that ensures fumes in the air stream won't encounter a spark or touch the motor.
If there's any chance of fumes in your lab catching on fire, spark resistance should prioritize.
