Frequently Asked Questions
What condition are the fume hoods in?
We offer pre-owned units (fully operational with standard cosmetic wear), reconditioned models (cleaned and refurbished to meet strict performance standards), and like-new surplus units that were purchased but never installed.
Why is there a separate crating fee?
Because chemical Use Fume Hoods are oversized and fragile, custom heavy-duty wooden crates are required for all shipments outside the Washington, D.C. metro region. This protects the internal liners and glass sashes during freight transit.
What is included in a fume hood "package"?
Packages generally include the main hood structure, glass sash, internal liners, and pre-plumbed utility fixtures. Base cabinets, countertops, and exhaust blowers vary by unit, so please verify the specific listing details with us.
Do you stock explosion-proof or specialty models?
Yes. Our inventory rotates frequently with equipment from government and corporate labs. We regularly carry specialized configurations, including Hamilton explosion-proof models and stainless steel-lined units for heavy acid or radiochemistry work.
How do I get a shipping quote or place an order?
Because freight shipping rates depend on your location, loading dock access, and crating size, we provide custom estimates. Click "Add to Quote" on any product page, call us at 301-337-8318, or email info@glesales.com.
