[Histonet] Breezy lab

[Cindy DuBois]

We solved the air vent problem by first taping a file folder to the
overhead vent so it directed the flow away from our cutting stations.
That worked somewhat, but not completely.  So we then taped a file
folder to the inside of the grate over the vent and now - no more
breeze!  But i can't wait to see what the maintenance people will say
when they come and clean the vents - a once a year event.

Hi Josie and Chris,

I've worked in labs with similar problems.  Breezes are nice outdoors but
cause havoc with ribbons.  If you can't get them to put in a door (which
you'll probably have to lock since folks will walk in, shut the door and
cause a breeze that way) then how about those fuzzy cubicle walls?  The ones
that are used in prairie dog farms (I mean open office situations  ;-)  ).
Also, you'll need to install some type of baffle or other item that hangs
from the air ducts and deflects the air across the ceiling instead of
straight down.

Good luck!

Paula  :-)
