Setting up a spray booth?
Question:I am looking into setting up a spray booth for finishing wood furniture. This needs to be done totally inside as I will have no access outside to spray etc The area i have in mind to spray in is only 10 x 10ft.
I need to make sure that the area I spray in that the chemicals are exhausted to the outside of the building (safely) and that the area that I spray in is safe to my health because I will be using materials such as i.e. lacquer, mineral spirits, methylene chloride etc.
I already understand that I will need an exhaust/extracter fan but would really appreciate any advice on makes/models and what I need to do? Also I want to make sure that there is no fire hazards etc And how strong the fan needs to be for such an area.
Thank you for reading this and looking forward to hearing from your suggestions soon

Is this room to be in your home, or a zoned industrial/commercial space? If in a residential area, venting the fumes outside could cause complaints and a lot of grief for you. My husband once vented fumes from a small paint spray booth into a water system he had set up and it worked great. Google it
