Subject: Centrally located glass-walled fume hoods

Does anyone have the glass-walled fume hoods (such as the TruView hoods made by Kewaunee) in their teaching labs?  I'm specifically interested in the back-to-back configuration of these in the center of the room (as opposed to the around the perimeter of the room layout).  We're in the process of planning a new chemistry building, and are considering the kind that have an actual glass barrier between the hoods so that the hoods are not dependent on one another.  Does anyone have these in their labs, and if so, what sorts of problems have you had with them?
 
Thank you,
