Q?
Does my Rangehood need to be ducted?
-
A.
Unless your Rangehood has a charcoal filter, it is highly advisable to have it externally ducted. Grease and oil deposits will build up on your filters if not properly maintained. If not externally ducted these oil deposits may enter your roof space and not only attract rodents, but may pose a fire risk.
