ANSI Z 9.5 / ASHRAE 110:2016
Turnkey Consultancy for Lab Ventilation and Fume Hood Testing
The ANSI Z 9.5 and ASHRAE 110:2016 standards are critical for ensuring safe, efficient, and compliant lab ventilation systems and fume hood performance. These standards focus on minimizing the risks associated with hazardous materials in laboratories, ensuring that airflow systems and fume hoods are designed, tested, and maintained to protect personnel and the environment.
Compliance with these standards is essential for labs handling toxic or flammable substances, as they directly affect safety, operational efficiency, and energy consumption. Labs that adhere to these guidelines are more likely to achieve effective containment and prevent harmful exposure.

ScienceByDesign (SbyD) has a team of experienced consultants who specialize in lab ventilation systems and fume hood testing. We help laboratories design, test, and implement ventilation systems that meet the highest safety standards. Our turnkey solutions include consultancy, system design, installation, and certification to ensure your lab meets all necessary requirements.
Key Aspects Covered Under ANSI Z 9.5 and ASHRAE 110:2016 Guidelines
When designing and constructing a laboratory, several key aspects must be considered to ensure compliance with ANSI Z 9.5 and ASHRAE 110:2016:
Custom Lab Ventilation Design
We optimize your lab’s ventilation system layout to meet ANSI Z 9.5 and ASHRAE 110:2016, ensuring safe airflow and effective containment of hazardous materials.
Compliant Infrastructure
We integrate compliant ventilation systems, fume hoods, and exhaust systems to meet safety and environmental control standards.
Fume Hood Testing
We conduct extensive testing on fume hoods, including face velocity measurements, tracer gas testing, and sash movement containment tests, to ensure performance and compliance.
VAV Testing
We test Variable Air Volume (VAV) systems for proper airflow adjustment, ensuring both energy efficiency and optimal safety.
Smoke Visualization Testing
We use smoke tests to verify airflow patterns, identifying any weak points that could compromise safety and containment.
Consequences of Non-Compliance
Labs that fail to comply with ANSI Z 9.5 and ASHRAE 110:2016 guidelines may face serious challenges:
- Increased Exposure Risk: Without proper containment, lab personnel are at risk of exposure to hazardous substances, which can lead to health issues and accidents.
- Operational Inefficiencies: Poor ventilation systems result in poor air quality, inefficient workflows, and higher energy consumption.
- Expensive Retrofitting: Labs that are not compliant may require costly modifications to meet the standards.
- Regulatory and Legal Risks: Failure to comply with these standards may lead to fines, loss of accreditation, or suspension of operations.
