Letting the AIR in!,
By FARRELL E WHITE -Confined Space Hazard Contro... (Vancouver B.C. Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Portable Ventilation Systems Handbook (Hardcover)
There is a lot of confusion out in there working world about ventilation, particularly portable systems. As a Confined Space Trainer I found this book to be a real open window on the field. I wanted to back up some of my theories and develop my understanding on portable systems, so I would have complete answers for my students when asked. This book not only provided that, but has also proved to be a handy reference when dealing with the unusual circumstances often found in Confined Space Hazard Control. Almost daily I am asked to review, design, or check on how portable systems are being employed in the field, and this hand-book is a valuable tool to have in one's arsenal. Anyone, who needs a better understanding of portable ventilation, should read this first.
