ABSTRACT:
A portable apparatus for removing fumes and vapors from the work area of a nail technician comprises a transparent hood having two semicircular end walls attached at opposite ends of a semicylindrical side wall so as to create a generally semicylindrical enclosure defining an interior chamber when placed on a flat surface. The side wall has an inner layer and an outer layer which is separated from the inner layer by a preselected distance so as to define a plenum therebetween. Both the inner layer and the outer layer have four portions defining hand openings for the insertion of hands of a nail technician and a customer. The inner layer has a plurality of apertures extending from the interior chamber to the plenum. The hood has at least one suction port in communication with the plenum, the suction port also being in communication with a source of reduced pressure by means of any convenient air passageway such as a hose. The invention optionally includes an in-line filter means connected between said at least one suction port and said source of reduced pressure as well as an air freshener means connected to an exhaust port of the source of reduced pressure, preferable a vacuum cleaner.
