I just discovered that my previous contractor did not vent my Braun kitchen exhaust fan to the outside of my house. He just laid the flexible duct in the attic, near a soffit, didn't vent it to the outside.
I cannot vent the kitchen exhaust duct through the roof or side wall.
Question: 1. What type of soffit vent should I use to vent my kitchen exhaust through the soffit? I saw photos on a house of some vents that direct the air away from the house, but cannot locate them anywhere.
2. Does the screen on some of the soffit vents collect the grease from the range and clog up after a while?
3. Can the flexible venting hose for the kitchen exhaust be hooked into my bathroom vent so I don't have two holes in my soffit? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!!! Thank you.
