Built in Blower Fume Hoods

First manufactured in 1995, the Genie Scientific Built in Blower laboratory fume hoods is a great option for companies that are looking to purchase a hood for lighter usage.

Unlike conventional fume hoods that have the blower mounted on the roof, built in blower fume hoods have the blower mounted directly on top of the fume hood. So instead of drawing air up through the duct it pushes it.

An ideal situation to use a built in blower hood is in a lab where the hood does not need to be in use around the clock. Many high school chemistry labs often use them for this very reason. Also, you do not need an electrician to hardwire the blower; you simply plug it into a 110-volt electrical socket.

Built in blower hoods cost less than conventional fume hoods with roof mounted blowers and cost less to install because you do not need to mount a blower on the roof. They are perfect for people who do not have the option to place blowers on the roof. Due to these factors, they will have a place in laboratories for many years to come.
