I teach in a small college with the studio in an old building. We have
localized exhaust for clay and glaze mix areas, kilns, and a great spray
booth. We wet mop. I want dust filtration to supplement all of this
because the old building does not have good venelation. I have done
some research and am leaning toward HEPA systems like those
sold by Axner and Bailey. I also know the need to mount them low to
keep the dust below the breathing zone.

Anyone have first hand experience with these or other systems? any
recommendations?
