I want to make a positive pressure hood for use when we return to the new normal. it would be composed of:
a full face mask with a seal all around the face,
a hepa filter for incoming air, a blower capable of passing air through the heap filter and creating a positive pressure in the hood/fce mask of approx. 1 inch of water column, to prevent entry of outside (possible virus ladened) air. it must be powered by a battery.
