A new roof was put on the house I'm in now. The old roof had a vent for the stove, but in their infinite wisdom, and their nack for executive decision making, my parents forgot to tell the roofers to install a vent in the new roof. Now, my mother doesn't want to cut a hole in the new roof for the vent because she's afraid it might leak. I suggested to her that we could try running the vent to an outside wall. But she goes on saying something like "why would you want to cut a hole in the building? It might leak, and with the amount of cooking you do, you don't need it." Yada yada yada. Needless to say, she doesn't want to install a vent. Her solution is to vent the stove into the attic. Her husband's dad says this is common. And it is true, I don't cook much, but I think this should be done right regardless. Now, the question. What is the best way to proceed if I want a vent to the outside? Should I consider having a vent installed in the roof or would the outside wall be better? Or is it fine just venting into the attic? Thanks for any info.
