Reported risk: These smoke hoods are one-time use respiratory devices that assist users with breathing, while escaping a fire. They include a transparent plastic hood that covers the user's head, and a canister that filters out toxic gases. "EVAC+™" or "EVAC-U8™" is printed on the canister. Hazards: The emergency escape smoke hoods could fail to work properly, exposing the user to harmful carbon monoxide, which could seriously compromise their ability to escape the fire threat.
