To better illustrate the source capture capability of the SalonSafe® ventilation system, we performed a simple test  for the City of Boston's Public Health Commission.

​

The City of Boston's ventilation requirements mirror those found in the International Mechanical Code for nail salons.

​

This test was recently performed in a newly opened nail salon in Boston during normal business hours.

​

Although a smoke pencil can be used, we prefer chilled theatrical fog as it better simulates low density chemical properties. 

 

The nail salon's base building HVAC system is running during this test.

​

The source capture vents are within 12" of chemical applications and are capturing fumes at 50cfm.
