Preventative maintenance on a spray booth will help reduce the likelihood of fires and explosions.
-Regular maintenance of the booth system and maintaining its systems in good order contribute to the fire prevention effort by removing flammable accumulations and dust, as well as make a clean finish possible.
-Use of the booth requires a regular schedule of filter replacement. Codes require that filters be inspected after each period of use and that clogged filters be discarded and replaced immediately, another practice that contributes to fire prevention as well as a clean finish.
