Why, can someone tell me why, it is so hard to find a home with an exterior-venting range hood?! Like we’re just out here boiling chicken and pasta or what?! They don’t make homes for people that cook??

One of my biggest home search pet peeves!! We rebuilt our kitchen a few years ago and adding an exterior exhaust was in the top 5 must haves.

The other frustration in my area is almost universal use of electric stove tops- a serious cook needs a gas cooktop!

like

We had the exterior exhaust added when we built our house. It’s considered an upgrade even though I paid for a ‘gourmet’ kitchen. I agree it should be included. But its not that hard to add later. A few of my friends have done it

Have you added ‘chefs kitchen’ to your home search criteria? Maybe homes have them, just not in your price range. Might just have to be something that you accept will be something that you budget as an immediate renovation

like

You could easily add it if the range is on an external wall, or even perpendicular to one. If perpendicular, you add a soffit above the cabinet run and vent it out. Not hard or expensive or messy. If it’s on a fully interior wall, then you are in for more complex fixes, but depending on joist direction and what’s in the ceiling between the stove and the exterior, it’s def doable (less easy to determine these things before you buy, tho).

They’re standard in European… I too find it strange that American homes have a microwave mini fan that barely works over their range instead of a proper ventilation system 😬. I guess these microwave fans are cheaper? I hate mine & the fire alarm goes off every time we cook impossible burgers or sausages.

You can always add one. A custom island vent will cost probably $2-4k for parts. Wall vents will be cheaper because they have one less side to worry about. Lots of premade vents as well. Installation is going to vary by region

I was wondering if the review course “CPE Self Study Course” for the CFF was enough preparation to study and pass the CFF exam. The CFE review course was enough and like if you get a question wrong it explains it well so that when it comes up in a different way in the real exam you can still get it. But when I saw the outline for the CFF material and there seems to be a lot of topics so I was wondering if the review course was sufficient considering this exam is also multiple choice. Thanks!

A director in another unit wants to meet me to “continue a conversation we started last year”. He is referring to the time I had asked him if there were openings on his team. That was over a year ago. I am not too happy where I am right now ( I stayed where I was). I also don’t know if he really has an opportunity or if this is just some corporate circle jerk where my current director is trying to “smoke me out”. I don’t speak poorly of my team/work.
