On Demand Presentation: Safe Sustainable Design: How Ductless Filtering Fume Hoods Help Labs Reach Their Sustainability Goals
This webinar from the 2025 Lab Design Conference explores how ductless filtering fume hoods can help laboratories reduce their environmental footprint and achieve sustainability goals—such as Zero Net Energy and LEED Platinum—without compromising safety, by aligning with safety standards, improving indoor air quality, and providing real-world best practices and case studies for strategic implementation
Fume Hood Safety Series: What Causes Fume Hood Fires—and How to Prevent Them
Preventing fume hood fires requires prioritizing containment over velocity, maintaining clean and uncluttered hoods, using explosion-proof equipment, conducting regular performance testing, providing thorough user training, and establishing robust emergency procedures
Fume Hood Safety Series: Mitigating Risk in Fume Hood Use: Prevention Is a Bargain
Effective fume hood risk mitigation requires prioritizing containment over velocity, implementing proper training, conducting routine dynamic testing, and fostering a safety culture focused on prevention rather than mere compliance
Fume Hood Safety Series: What to Do in Case of a Fume Hood Fire
Proper training, preparation, and prompt action—lowering the sash, activating alarms, evacuating, and reporting—are essential for effectively responding to a fire in a laboratory fume hood and preventing a minor incident from escalating into a disaster
Fume Hood Safety Series: What Is a Good Metric for Judging a Hood’s Safe Performance?
The true metric for fume hood safety is effective containment under real-world conditions, assessed through dynamic testing like the ASHRAE 110 protocol, rather than relying solely on face velocity measurements
Fume Hood Safety Series: What Makes a Fume Hood Safe?
A safe fume hood ensures user protection through effective containment, regular testing, proper training, and minimizing turbulence, rather than relying solely on face velocity measurements
Fume Hood Safety Series: Accident Prevention Tips When Working with a Fume Hood
Effective fume hood usage and proper ventilation are crucial for lab safety, as accidents can lead to serious harm, research setbacks, legal issues, and reputational damage—so here are practical tips to help prevent them
