Decision shortcuts
Spray booth filtration directly impacts paint finish quality and workshop air quality. Contaminated inlet air introduces dust and particles into the spray environment, while under-performing exhaust filters allow paint overspray and solvents to accumulate, creating health and fire hazards.
Types of spray booth filters:
**Inlet (ceiling/roof) filters:** Capture airborne dust and particles before air enters the spray booth. These high-efficiency filters are typically changed regularly as they accumulate dust from the workshop environment.
**Exhaust (floor/wall) filters:** Capture overspray, paint particles, and solvents leaving the booth. Critical for environmental compliance and preventing solvent buildup in extraction systems.
**Paint strainers:** Fine mesh or paper cone strainers used when pouring mixed paint into a spray gun. Removes agglomerated particles, hardener lumps, and debris that would clog the spray gun nozzle or cause defects in the finish.
When to replace booth filters:
Inlet filters should be replaced when airflow reduces noticeably or when the filter surface becomes visibly loaded. Exhaust filters typically need replacement every few weeks in a busy panel shop. Always use the correct filter grade for your booth specification.
