Vent Adapters

Many people ﬁnd the smell of plastic from a 3D printer to be particularly noxious, but there

hasn't been that much research on the long or short term health eﬀects of exposure to 3D

printer fumes. Because the diﬀering nature of the particles and compounds put into the air by

diﬀerent ﬁlaments, there's no standard way of ﬁltering everything, especially since the smallest

particles can't be completely caught by even the best HEPA ﬁlter.

If you only print occasionally the risk is low, but if you are going to be printing a lot (and

especially for multiple printers), what the

CDC recommends is to vent the 3D printer gasses to

the

outside, such as with one of our vents paired with a standard dryer hose. They can also

hook to any DIY enclosure by simply creating the right size hole.

Inline Fan

Our latest venting kit features an inline fan that is both very powerful and adjustable. The general layout

is shown below:

Ideally, you'll want to place the inline fan as close as possible to where it exits your workspace.

The idea is to keep as much as possible of the system pulling with negative pressure rather than pushing

the air. The reason is with negative pressure if there are any air leaks that just means more air is drawn

into the hose. With a positive pressure conﬁguration, any air leaks would mean the contaminated air is

being pushed out, defeating the purpose.

Note that the included 8 feet long hose will need to be cut in half. Four clamps are included to

"splice" the vent into the hose as shown above.
