Have any of you had experience with ADA compliant fume hoods being used by non-wheelchair bound personnel? I have concerns that th e shorter height (floor to work surface) of an ADA compliant hood will be a problem w hen used by people who would stand in front of the hood to work. Is there merit to my concern?
Thanks for any input that you can provide. Pleas e feel free to reply directly to asimpson**At_Symbol_Here** memphis.edu.
