How does the Green G3 deal with a potential fire or explosion (in a standard hood, wouldn the duct assist in removal of smoke, etc.)?
If that was the case, the GreenFumeHood technology is arguably safer than a conventional ducted design. First, the basic principle (which has to do with the avoidance of fire propagation) is that a fume hood equipped with the GreenFumeHood technology does not vehicle air through a conduit and therefore contributes to extinguishing a fire by starving it of its oxygen. A traditional design, which may exhaust fumes, will at the same time fuel a fire with loads of added air and oxygen. Second, with the GreenFumeHood technology, there is no risk of fire in a conduit (ductwork) that runs through an entire building structure. Furthermore, if that same conduit is not cleaned regularly, dust deposits which have accumulated over time could be loaded with chemicals that could contribute to an even worse fire condition. Third, a Neutrodine cartridge, even loaded with solvents, remains inert. Fourth, the advanced GreenFumeHood technology includes (in the gGuard monitoring package) a temperature/fir
