That is correct. If you use a shop vac for the air source, connect the outlet side of the vac to the inlet of the hood. Some vacs do not have a fitting on the outlet so they will not work. My one horse only has a screen but my three horse has a place to hook the hose. This is so it can be used to blow stuff off. If your vac supplies too much air you will need to vent some of the air by putting a hole in the hose. This should be near the vac not where you are painting. The positive pressure in the hood causes the hood to inflate and also exhausts the exhaled breath out the vent.
