I'm confused: On the first page of the link it says:

These vertical laminar flow Hoods are ideal for applications which are not hazardous to the operator but require a clean work area.

Shelly,

    From what I have seen, the Laminar Flow Hoods are one of the best on the 
market.  Performing Lockout/Tagout audits, I see a lot of the bench top vertical 
models.  Here is a link for your viewing.

I hope this helps you out.
