The case for spending here

Welding fume is a Group 1 carcinogen, and the exposure is cumulative rather than dramatic. For someone welding weekly for years, extraction is the purchase with the longest payback and the least visible benefit — which is exactly why it gets postponed.

What to ask before buying

Airflow at the nozzle and filter replacement cost. Neither appears in the listing, and both decide whether the unit protects you and what it costs to keep doing so.

Sources

Every figure above comes from the manufacturer’s published specification for this reference. Fields the listing does not publish are left out rather than estimated. Market availability was verified per market on the EAN.
