Laboratories are notorious for being energy hogs.The expense of heating and cooling the air that is exhausted out of a lab to provide scientists a safe working environment is one of the biggest expenses a lab incurs.

By using filtered fume hoods, the number of air exchanges in a lab can be drastically reduced.Because filter technology has evolved over the years, a larger variety of applications can be performed safely in a filtered hood.
