Why do I need a fume extractor?
Welding fume extractors are an essential tool to protect your worker’s health and fulfill the health and safety requirements set by the state/country. While a regular air ventilator/fan might be sufficient to push out the toxic air, it doesn’t filter it like a fume extractor does.
How often should I clean or maintain my fume extractor and the filter?
The frequency of filter maintenance depends on your welding intensity. For heavy use, clean or change filters every 2-3 months. For light use, do it every 3-5 months. You can consider self-cleaning filters to save time and effort.
What certifications does RTF products have?

How do Fume Extractors work?
Think of it as a vacuum cleaner that captures, filters, and cleans the air you breathe while working. It uses a powerful fan to create suction, drawing in fumes and dust particles from the work area which then passes through a series of filters that capture and clean the polluted air. It’s then released back into the workspace or exhausted outside, depending on the system.

No they do not, we recommend some source of fresh air be brought into the facility such as make up air systems or simple wall louvers.
What is the particle size that the HEPA filter can capture?
HEPA, or High Efficiency Particulate Air Filter, are pleated mechanical filters that are designed to capture 99.97% of harmful particles in the air which are as small as 3 µm (microns). HEPA Filters are really beneficial for welding processes like MIG, TIG, SMAW, and FCAW.
