heady 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2009 Is it necessary? Well, I think a well ventilated room with a fan to blow a way the fumes is just as good. If you use aircon room to solder in, then I worry for you. Don't know if the Weller fume extractor has carbon filter to absorb the lead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't know if the Weller fume extractor has carbon filter to absorb the lead. well i work in aircon environment.. = and lately i've being getting real bad headaches..100 bucks is a well spent if i can reduce that toxic fume in the air i guess..i guess i better ask them first if it has carbon filter p.s, yea it does have carbon activated filter control Edited May 17, 2009 by kookie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
heady 0 Report post Posted May 18, 2009 I agree with you kookie. $100 is a small price to pay for health. If you solder in an enclosed room, please use the fume extractor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
