nail salon ventilation

I'm an architect in MA.

I have a client who hates the look and noise of the shop vac type source capture units. In MA, you can't recirculate air...has to exhaust outdoors. This causes a problem with replacing 50CFM per the 20 stations in this salon. We are having to upsize the HVAC units with economizers. Huge money..more infrastructure to support the massive roof unit.

Looking at a simple system called SalonSafe as option. Spoke to the City Health Dept who has approved it for various salons in the area. Any opinions on it? website is www.salonsafe.net

Thank you.
