Like most hobbyists, I’m trying to minimize my impact on the neighbourhood (and my own household), and PU resin fumes are always an issue. [A few words to preempt the epoxy-gestapo: I have used, and will continue to use, epoxy, but (a) I want to try colour tricks more suited to PU, and (b) cost and availability of epoxy products (no KK, additive F etc.) are an issue here.]
Anyway, I’m renovating my house and am planning on making myself a woodworking/shaping/glassing workshop in an outside room that has a kitchen, and it struck me that the room already has a kitchen hood with a charcoal filter.
I remember seeing a thread somewhere in the archives in which someone made a scrubber with fans and a filter, and claimed it worked well at reducing the resin smell. It seems to me that a kitchen hood is pretty much the same thing. The claimed flow rate is 210 m3/hour.
Will it work?
