Fume Hoods

There are several types of fume hoods:

• Ducted Fume Hoods: These vent air outside through ductwork.
• Ductless Fume Hoods: These use filtration systems to clean and recirculate air.
• Specialised Fume Hoods: Such as those for perchloric acid or radioisotopes, designed for specific chemical applications.

Ductless fume hoods can be highly effective when equipped with advanced filtration systems. They are suitable for laboratories where external venting is not feasible or practical.

Yes, fume hoods can be customised with additional features such as special filtration media, lighting, and workspace configurations to accommodate specific chemical handling requirements and laboratory workflows.

Fume hoods help reduce environmental impact by effectively containing and treating hazardous substances, preventing their release into the atmosphere and ensuring safe disposal practices.

Ducted fume hoods are ideal for laboratory applications that involve handling volatile, flammable, or hazardous chemicals. They provide effective ventilation, removing harmful vapours and ensuring a safe working environment.

When purchasing a fume hood, consider the size of your workspace, the type of chemicals you will be using, ventilation requirements, and certifications that ensure safety. Dou Yee offers various models to suit different laboratory needs.

It is not recommended to use fume hoods as storage spaces for volatile, flammable, or noxious chemicals. A fume hood is designed to manage fumes and vapours during active use, while chemicals should be stored in designated, ventilated storage cabinets.
