Hello Everyone,
Has anyone experienced issues with sash mechanisms? I had one fail yesterday from what initially appears to be failure of the belt of the counterweight mechanism. These fume hoods are fairly new and I am wondering how often it is recommended
that these mechanisms be inspected. And, does anyone have a written recommended procedure for such inspections that they are willing to share?
Thank you,
Monique
