COSHH - The Control Of Substances Hazardous to Health 2002
The Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) 2002 regulations prioritise employee protection from exposure to hazardous substances, particularly in laboratory environments. Here, fume cupboards with their integral local exhaust ventilation (LEV) systems play a crucial role in risk mitigation.
COSHH Regulation 9 mandates proactive maintenance for effective LEV control. This includes maintaining fume cupboards in optimal working order and good repair, with thorough examinations and testing conducted at least every 14 months, and potentially more frequently for high-risk processes.
By adhering to these regulations and partnering with a qualified service provider like Holliday Technical Services, research laboratories can achieve optimal safety standards while fostering productive working environments.

The safety standard for ducted fume cupboards in the UK is BS EN 14175. This standard provides critical guidelines for the design, construction, and performance of fume cupboards to ensure they effectively protect staff from hazardous fumes. Holliday Technical Services adheres to this standard, providing your laboratory with safe and compliant fume cupboard testing and maintenance. HTS have been providing outstanding fume cupboard testing for research labs for over 18 years. Speak to us today about your fume cupboard testing and maintenance needs.
To ensure safety and comply with COSHH regulations, fume cupboards must be thoroughly examined and tested by a competent person every 14 months. This isn't just about the fume cupboard itself – it includes the entire system, like ductwork and fans, to guarantee everything is functioning correctly. Holliday Technical Services provides comprehensive fume cupboard testing for research facilities, ensuring your lab is safe and compliant. HTS engineers are DBS (Enhanced) checked and highly trained.
Always prioritise safety with this simple checklist:
- Training: Are you and your team properly trained in fume hood use?
- Chemicals: Know the hazards of the chemicals you'll be working with.
- Sash Position: Is the sash opened to the correct height for optimal protection?
- Check Gauges: Ensure the air pressure gauge shows proper airflow.
- Fan Function: Verify that the exhaust fan is working correctly.
- No Sparks: Keep potential spark sources away from the fume hood.
Need in-depth fume hood testing ? Holliday Technical Services can help!
A fume cupboard is a special type of ventilated cabinet designed to protect staff and researchers from harmful fumes during science experiments. There are two distinct types of fume cupboard and many variations. In essence a fume cupboard works like a powerful fan, drawing in contaminated air, filtering it using a specialised filter, and then recirculating it back into the room in the case of ductless filtered fume cupboards, or in the case of a ducted fume cupboard drawing in the air and safely releasing the air outside the building via ductwork usually positioned above the cabinet and venting on to a roof or outside wall. It's important to make sure the lab has proper ventilation so the fume cupboard can function effectively. Contact HTS about our fume cupboard testing for research service or about purchasing new fume cupboards, select refurbished fume cupboards, fume cupboard replacement parts including airflow monitoring devices and replacement fume cupboard carbon activated, HEPA or ULPA filter.
Absolutely! A fume hood is a powerful tool, but it doesn't replace your PPE (Personal Protective Equipment). Always wear:
- Lab Coat: Protects your clothes and skin from spills.
- Safety Glasses or Goggles: Shields your eyes from splashes and unexpected reactions.
- Gloves: Choose the right type for the chemicals you're handling.
Important: The fume hood's sash is NOT a blast shield. Use a separate blast shield if your experiment requires it. HTS is a specialist fume cupboard testing and maintenance provider based in the UK providing fume cupboard testing for research facilities, colleges, universities, industry, life sciences, forensic chemistry and all businesses where fume cupboards and/or other local exhaust ventilated (LEV) equipment is used.
