Why should I bother with LEV?
The law says you must control the risks from these substances
(the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH)
Regulations). Installing LEV may help you to do this.
For more information about other ways of eliminating or
reducing airborne contamination at work look at HSE's COSHH
website, hse.gov.uk/coshh.

A guide to local exhaust ventilation (LEV)
Ref Code: HSG258
The book above provides guidance on the supply of local
exhaust ventilation (LEV) equipment. It describes the principles
and good practice of deciding on, designing, commissioning
and testing cost-effective LEV.
The guidance is written for the suppliers of LEV goods and
services, but will also be helpful for employers and managers in
medium-sized businesses, and trade union and employee safety
representatives. All of these groups need to work together to
provide, maintain and use effective LEV and to reduce exposure
from inhalation of hazardous substances.
The book contains information about the roles and legal
responsibilities of suppliers and of their clients as employers;
competence; principles of good design practice for effective
LEV hoods and their classification; ducts, air movers, air cleaners;
and system documentation with checking and maintenance
schedules, and the marking of defective equipment.
It also includes guidance on the specification of LEV; the
supplier's quotation; commissioning; zone marking; the user
manual and logbook; testing and hood labels.
