Talk:Fume hood

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the UK, "fume cupboard" is definitely more common than "fume hood", is this the case elsewhere.... thinking "redirect" here --PopUpPirate 23:36, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Fume hood vs. Fume cupboard

Well, here in the States we call 'em "fume hoods", ya see. genevax@yahoo.com

The UK invented them so we can call them what we like. European Standard uses Fume Cupboard. Globally fume cupboard used more.

I don't Think it really matters who invented them or who uses them more...they save lives and isn't that what really matters.....turboefx@yahoo.com
