You and I both know that they should be vented outside, but I'm guessing how often it isn't would be quite frustrating.

My shitty starter house (1995) didn't have a vent, but there was a window in the kitchen, so did that count? My boyfriend's house is in a higher cost of living area with absurdly expensive houses, and he was told (after purchasing the house when he was getting some things updated) that his vented into the attic. He doesn't use it because he doesn't want to blow aerosolized oils all over whatever's up there.

I was shocked that it wasn’t code in some places, it’s been code here since before the 90s. I never even heard of a recirculating one for forever. Any kitchen needs an outside vented range hood, so simple.

And the funny thing is, they preach not to use bbqs inside, yet somehow a gas stove is fine? What? Propane is actually the safer gas.
