LabHoodPro™ Fume Hood Retrofit Kit
Research laboratory facilities use 4-5 times as much energy as typical commercial buildings. Heating and air conditioning costs represent approximately 60% of a laboratory's annual energy costs and fume hood energy use is equal to 40-50% of the HVAC costs. Each fume hood will use anywhere from $2,500 - $3,000 in energy per year and almost $300,000 over the entire life span of the hood. In order to help address the issue of decreasing energy use but at the same time increasing safety and containment, LabHoodPro™ has developed a performance enhancing upgrade kit for chemical fume hoods that will:
- Increase safety of a chemical fume hood by improving the containment and performance of the hood while operating at a reduced face velocity
- Provide increased capacity for existing HVAC systems due to the reduced demand for supply and exhaust air
- Provide significant opportunities for reduced energy and operational costs
LabHoodPro™ Fume Hood Retrofit Kits consistently match the performance of new, high performance fume hoods and contain no moving or electronic parts. The Retrofit Kit comes complete with Patent Pending components:
- Aerodynamic Air Foil Sill
- Vortex Displacement Sash Handle™
- Enhanced Baffle System
Optional Accessories Include:
- High Quality Fume Hood Monitor
- Super Bright, Low Energy LED Light Bulbs
- Vapor, Splash and Explosion Shields
