A wall vent is the most common type of range hood vents and is ideal for most house based kitchen situations.
Vent range hood through wall or roof.
Range hoods are typically vented using a special duct work that runs through a roof and less often through an exterior wall of your house.
It is considered a little more expensive to vent your range hood through the roof than through the wall.
It is installed much like an exhaust fan and works by expelling the heat directly from the kitchen in a straight passageway.
The range hood vent uses ducts that are made to run in the roof or walls.
This is why you need to install the range hood vent properly or you call a roofing contractor.
This type is most effective in eliminating damp and stale air that accumulates in the kitchen.
To vent a range hood through a wall or roof you have to open up a hole in the ceiling using a drill machine.
