While we do not recommend this type of installation, exterior venting may not be an option in all applications. In these cases, the hood mainly directs steam, heat and smoke away from the stove top. Its main filters may still trap oil and grease droplets dispersed into the air above the stove and in most cases an optional carbon filter is available to try to reduce odors. Ductless	Yes
