Venting stove on kitchen peninsula
Hi All!
I'm looking for advice on how to vent (or not to vent) an electric stove on a kitchen peninsula in a class B rental. Ideally we'd like to leave the peninsula completely open with a eat in bar behind the stove. Our tenants are primarily from the medical school community and don't cook too much.
The options I see are as follows:
1. Leave it unvented (okay by code for electric stove) and hope to avoid lingering odors and yellowing of walls
2. Add a pop up vent behind the stove and hope tenants use it ( In my opinion not likely and pop ups are very expensive)
3. Move the stove off the peninsula as the rest of the kitchen connects to an outside wall. We're on a slab so this could be very costly.
Any other suggestions are welcome!
