Vent-A-Fume Model ENC2015 Encaustic Fume Extractor

This is a great solution for ventilating areas with fumes. The Vent-A-Kiln Fume Extractor removes the fumes from your paints, waxes and more directly from your work area. It is a bench mount style so it can be moved around to where you need it. It is not a dust remover : it is for fumes only. It may be useful for potters using hot wax techniques for resist.

elted encaustic wax releases unpleasant fumes containing acrolien and various aldehydes. The concentration of these emissions increases at higher working temperatures commonly found in encaustic art or paint applications. If not properly vented, these emissions can become an encaustic safety issue leading to headache, nausea, and possible future respiratory concerns. Encaustic supplies such as the encaustic fume extractor removes undesirable fumes directly at the source.

The Vent-A-Kiln Fume Extractor is a complete ventilation system designed for encaustic palette venting. It is easy to assemble for installation on workbenches and tabletops. It’s ergonomic, lightweight design makes the portable unit easy to transport and reposition as needed.

The close-capture design of Vent-A-Fume allows for quick and efficient removal of virtually all emissions. It utilizes a positive-pressure system that exhausts excess heat and fumes to the outside or into existing ductwork.

Removing and ventilating fumes is a critical concern in today’s safety-conscious work environment. Vent-A-Fume’s table-mounted ventilator helps provide healthier conditions for encaustic painting studios as well as other similar fume-producing processes such as: oil painting, nail manicuring, spot soldering, jewelry curing and dental ovens.
