Proper Ventilation for Welding Tips & Techniques

Video Transcript

Hello, My name is Mac and on behalf of expertvillage.com I would like to talk to you about welding shop ventilation. Now inside of a welding shop, we have already talked about the different types of gases that we use and the smokes that can occur when you are welding, and it is good idea to have adequate ventilation. Adequate ventilation can be as simple as opening a door or window and letting in some fresh air but in a lot of cases in larger shops it is necessary to have a duct work installed with proper fans and make up heaters or cooling systems that will heat or cool the air, fresh air as it has been drawn into the building to replace the air that has been sucked out by the ventilating fans. Proper ventilation systems can also include smoke eaters that filter the air inside of a welding shop taking out the smoke and dust and part of fine particles in the air. It is very important for your health to protect yourself from smoking gases. They can cause a long-term health effects if you are exposed to them chronically.
