Standards / Certification
• Containment: ASHRAE Std. 110 in North America
• Retention: AFNOR NFX 15-211(as referenced in ANSI Z9.5-2012)
• All (3) phases of operation• Class 1 (back-up filter)
(3) Operation Phases per NFX 15-211
Operation Phase Class 1 (Filtered) Class 2 (Ductless)
NormalEmissions concentration at filter exhaust must be
< 1% of TLV
Detection < 1% of TLV < 50% of TLV
Safety < 50% of TLV n/a
Erlab Testing Laboratory
• Claims of compliance shall be guaranteed by and documented in 3rd-party independent test reports.
• Additionally, per AFNOR NFX 15-211, manufacturer must supply a chemical list.
Regarding Compliance…
FINAL THOUGHTS
• Pollution is Pollution regardless of Dilution!
• Lower first costs AND operational cost savings.
• Safety and increased flexibility.
There is a better way!

LF Sash
• While increasing LF sash 50%
• Before: (8) 12-foot and (2) 6-foot hoods
• After: (27) 6-foot filtered fume hoods
Savings (cont.)
• Savings from reduced supply air:8,330 CFM x $4/CFM/Year =
$33,320 per year
• Other savings:• Decommissioned EF-14 @ 11,200
CFM
• Reduced demand on EF-13 by 1,500 CFM
Maintenance• Acid sensor replacement:
• Every 2 calendar years
• $449/Hood = $225/hood annualized
• Primary filter replacement:
• 4 Filters after 5 years of operation = $840/hood annualized
• Total Annualized: $1,065/hood
Lessons Learned• Would use filtering fume hoods again!
• Would like more walking space between benches (narrow them by 6” each).
• Students are on stools (not standing) and it is difficult to walk down the aisle.
• The renovation project happened so fast there wasn’t time to explore options.
• Open storage cubbies keep backpacks off the floor, avoids tripping hazard.
Lessons Learned (cont.)
• More student enrollment than planned: from 300 to 425; a 42% increase!
• More faculty than planned: from 5 to 16; a 300% increase!
• Dispensing hoods could have been ducted thereby also providing the ventilation air to the lab. Regardless, filters have lasted longer than expected.
Conclusions• Continues to achieve all goals
• Filters lasted longer than expected
• "Would do it again”
Next Steps
• Renovation of therest of the building!
U of Rochester – Hutchinson Hall
• $1.5mil, 6-month Renovation
• Organic Chemistry Teaching Lab

• (13) Filtered
• (2) Ducted (Dispensing)
• Supply and Exhaust system ‘challenges’
U of Rochester – Before
U of Rochester – After • NYSERDA rebate: $36.6k
• GFH portion: $12,975
• Annual kWh Savings: 32,727
• Peak Reduction: 110.5 kWh
• Fuel Savings: 8,233 Therms
• Operating costs savings: $136,100 annually
• 300% increase in hoods!
McMaster University, iSci Honors Lab• No capacity on exhaust
system
• Addition of (9) hoods, (8) filtered
• Installed in August, 2013
Acids & Solvents• ELECTROPHORESIS
• FILTRATION
• PIPETTING
• ANALYSIS
• HISTOLOGY
• Russ Ellis, M. Sc. – Lab Coordinator, Integrated Science Program
• “The GFH’s serve our needs incredibly well...”
• “Biggest battle was convincing Safety Dpt that GFH was as safe as traditional ducted hoods. We finally did convince them.”
• Face velocities are lower, not meeting McMaster’s standard of 100fpm.
McMaster University
“A real big plus is the ability to have one hood fully accessible by installing it on an adjustable-height table.”
McMaster University
“In summary, the hoods look great, save energy and money and allow students to work safely.”
