  • an integral blower,
  • a vapor proof light and;
  • fan and light switches.

The hood is made of fire-retardant fiberglass “with a molded one-piece seamless interior fume chamber.” The carbon filter adsorbs the fumes and then re-circulates the air back to the laboratory. It does not require duct or venting to outside.
