Which component is where the air is drawn into the hood?

• A. Inlet
• B. Duct
• C. Air Cleaner
• D. Outlet

Answer: (A)

Air is drawn into the hood through the inlet. This intake opening is where room air is pulled into the ventilation system to capture contaminants as soon as the system is operating. From there, air typically travels through a duct on its way to the exhaust, and may pass through an air cleaner for filtration before it exits via the outlet. The duct serves as the path between the hood and the exhaust, while the outlet is where the air leaves the system.
