I'm not sure what you mean. Just for venting smoke out? I usually just leave the outer door open and let the smoke go out through the screen door. ------------- Alan 2022 R-Pod 196 "RaptoRPod" 2022 Ram 1500 Lone Star 4x4 Three cats |

That was the first question I asked the dealer when I purchased my 179, ( How did they get away without installing a vent for the gas stove). You shouldn't have to open the door for venting out fumes or smoke or turn on your fantastic fan but thats what I do.

Yeah I usually set off my smoke detector 2-3 times each stay. ------------- Leo & Melissa Bachand 2017 Ford F150 2021 Vista Cruiser 19 csk Previously owned 2015 Rpod 179 2010 Rpod 171 |

It's probably a good idea to open the bath ceiling vent a little when you use the stove, unless the windows and/or door are open. When we cook, which we avoid doing inside when possible, we open the vent and often turn on the bath fan to the low setting. Of course, when in those states other than CO, CA, OR, WA, MA, NV, and ME, you might want to close that bath vent and windows lest you alert the authorities of your nefarious personal consumption preferences. ------------- Never leave footprints behind.
