Changing the CFMs
11 years ago
My city will only allow a fume hood to draw up to 400CFMs to pass inspection or you have to do something (expensive) to the heating/cooling system. I was told that if we switch out the internal vent to a 4inch diameter, it will fix the problem and reduce the CFMs. Is this true?
