Not considering price/work hours.

Vertical or horizontal flow?

Vertical flow is of course bulkier and more work/money to build, but is it better?

Depends on how you build it. Mine is about like a box fan, maybe less, super quiet

Horizontal flow. You want sterile airflow across your work not blowing down into it, it would defeat the purpose.

They aren't very loud. It's a humming.

You want the flow facing towards you. When you work with a FH you have to train yourself to never move anything between the filter and your sterile media (especially your gloves) , because contams can get blown into your work.

The way we do our work a vertical flow hood wouldn't work.
