Important notes :

If this product is to be used for the testing of a ventilation system covered by Part F of the Building Regulations it is required to have a UKAS calibration for air volume in conjunction with an anemometer to comply with the guidance documentation.

Unless there is any specific guidance offered by the manufacture of the ventilation system, due to the size and shape of the round hood, BSRIA Instrument Solutions does not recommend the use of the circular products for the testing ventilation systems to Part F of the UK Building Regulations. If however the circular hood are to be used we would recommend that the hood + anemometer + grille combination is calibrated by a UKAS accredited laboratory for air volume to determine the system characteristics, as errors can be significant without applying the appropriate correction factor at the measured flow rate. A price for this service can be obtained from BSRIA Instrument Solutions calibration department on calibration@bsria.co.uk

When using any hood kit it is recommended that there is a minimum of 100 mm clearance between the fan inlet/outlet grille and the hood edge to reduce measurement errors.
