When To Replace Filters

Filter replacement in fume extractors is essential for maintaining safe air quality and system performance—especially in environments with hazardous fumes like welding, soldering, laser cutting, or chemical processes.

Filter replacement frequency depends on:

·       Usage time & intensity

·       Type of fume or particulate (e.g., solder, smoke, chemicals)

·       Filter type (pre-filter, HEPA, carbon, etc.)

Typical Lifespans:

Some advanced units use pressure differential sensors or airflow monitors to alert when a filter is clogged and needs replacement.
