The indented portion of the work top defines the safe working area of the hood where contaminants can be generated without exposing the hood user. This safe working area starts 6″ behind the sash opening. The hood user is likely to be exposed to any conta minants generated in front of this safe working area due to the eddies in front of the use’s body.
