Hello, as you a professional, I hope you don’t mind me asking how you feel about elbows, as my new range hood advises against it. Hence why I came to learn how to install a new roof vent. We have moved our stove to a new location in the kitchen by about 7 ft. My husband would like to just use coiled ducting and I think we should go with metal ducting using elbows, but after reading our vent hood manual further, I’m now thinking we need go strait up, single story. With my configuration using the old vent would require - 2 elbows. Vent Model: IKTCH KB01 - 30”. Appreciate you taking the time as well as your very thoughtful & helpful comment to the creator.
@@KristiSage so the rule of thumb with hoods are in a “if you can avoid”. So … (1) ideal world: 6-7” metal duct straight up to roof flashing not exceeding the height of your hood. (2) will work great:6-7” metal duct offset using ‘less than’ 90° elbows to avoid grease settlement in ductwork, by letting duct flow downhill towards kitchen exhaust. (3) still works a 10x3 square to round with 6-7” 90° elbow directly through exterior wall, maybe through soffit (pitched towards exhaust) to wall eyebrow with backdraft damper (10x3 duct can be used aswell if you don’t have the ceiling, wall eyebrow must match duct.) (4) if you have too you have too: 6-7” Rigid Aluminum flexible duct to a metal sleeved collar at your exhaust and roof or wall flashings. Staying to “downhill” rule and avoiding 90°. (Never use FOIL duct, it’s larger more flexible coils allow grease settling and its weaker body will easily be torn by rodents in attic spaces. It’s a nightmare for people later down the road, ironically most hoods have this in the box don’t use it)
Flex duct does not meet code because it has the ability to store grease inside the edges creating a fire hazard. Rigid pipe is to be used to eliminate the possibility of fire penetrating the duct wall.
@@hawkdaddy64 Actually I probably wouldn’t, since I don’t install range hoods in other peoples homes but yes I can see that happening. I have heard of some builders or installers venting straight into the attic. Ridiculous!
I read the positive AND negative comments. Both were helpful to me in prepping to put a vent through my roof. We just moved in and the stove venting through the top of the microwave (designed that way) is greasy, grimy, and disgusting. We have to do something different. This video will be helpful as the first venting video I watched in my process of attaching my venting issues. Thank you for the video.
Thanks for sharing. One thing comes to mind after watching the video. If you used flex duct like you did, you could have used the already cut out area on your right that was patched up. That way, you do not have to squeeze it by the joist. Some areas require galvanized or solid metal ducts which make it hard to do but still doable with lots of work. Thanks again. The work looks nice.
Hey handyman using a flex duct you should have used the precious vent spot in the roof. I'm looking to do mine there is no hole but I got a perfect spot in the middle of the rafters. I will go with a semi-rigid dock and insulate it to avoid condensation during wintertime since in fl
If flex duct can not be used why do Zline products come with what looks like the same duct he installed? Honest question, as there are instances where you can not get solid ducting.
I think he did everything right but I dont see why he didn't go through the hole that was already there. He also broke that shingle. He also pinched it a bit for the joist and rafter but I dont think that's a big deal. Can you share what your analysis is because I have to do this. I'm being genuine, thanks

Nice job doing this yourself and for videoing your efforts. You should consider changing your flex duct to rigid duct. It will help reduce turbulence and noise, while making your fan more efficient.
Anyone know how to vent like this for installing thru a metal roof? What type of flashing, etc....having hard time finding what we need as all kits I've found are for shingled roof not metal.
I am not a venting expert, just a plumber with some venting experience. When I bought my 20-year old house, the range hood was not connected to any venting whatsoever, a code violation in BC. The top of the cupboards was lined with uncleanable grease which I paved over with plywood. I ended up venting it with ABS pipe directly through the roof. I terminated it with a hardware store low-profile aluminum vent that covers it to keep the rain and snow meltwater out of the kitchen. The key here, for the uninitiated, is to get advice on how to integrate and overlay your current roofing material with the vent cover. Caulking alone will not suffice, but you will need tar-style caulking additionally. Ask a roofer friend to demo the method for you. Otherwise, its a doable DIY project. A last thought is safety. I had a friend both hold the ladder and be ready with a cellphone should I fall off ! A fall might incapacitate your ability to phone for help.
Since you were using flex venting duct to start with, why didn't you just use the existing hole, and bend the venting duct aroung to where the old hole was?
Man!! I’m thinking about doing the same project and was afraid of running into the same problem you encountered. Finding a ceiling joist in the center of the hole.
you should always try to locate any ceiling joists first before you make a whole and even better when planning the location of the hood. You could even make a plenum when you can't avoid a beam or joist. As long as it has the same volume it can be a different shape.
there is no need. because usually inside of the duct is hotter and only condensation occurs inside of the pipe. If you use the vent everyday, no issue.
Doesn’t the exhaust pipe allow a lot of cold air from the outside back into the house? This is what I am worried about if I were to do this at my house.
First, thanks for sharing! oh, man! This is truly amazing! I want to install a range hood. But the range is in the middle of the kitchen (not beside the main wall of the building). It troubles me where the exhaust pipe should go. I never thought about letting it go through the roof. I was thinking about placing the exhaust pipe in between the ceiling and the floor of upper stairs. and then eventually place the exit outside the wall of the building. I would not try your approach because my house a three level high and I'm afraid to climb that high. Also I'm afraid to touch roof.
You could run it through the ceiling/floor joists and out through the wall of the house for sure! I chose not to do that with this project because that would have required drilling through brick and block and it was easier to go through the roof for me.
@@DanielRead87 I see. Thanks for the reply. For my case, it is siding. It is easier to let the pipe run through floor joists and out through the wall of the house.
@@DanielRead87 Great idea of going through the roof. Using the wall can cause mold to build in your artic through the cool are intake when that moist cooking air sucks back into the artic. That old house has a great example of it. ua-cam.com/video/PqrZWd_CQIE/v-deo.html&ab_channel=ThisOldHouse
Damn man I’m a handy man myself and I know to never use flex dryer vent for hood vent.. thing will fill Up with grease and catch fire. No bueno my friend..
Also, when you go to sell your home, the home inspector is going to spot this right away and you'll end up redoing install anyway... Good Luck. Nice video and I like the BBshop quartet
The easiest way to avoid framing is to drill a hole from the inside to set your center point. I would be concerned about the long term efficacy of this installation and it seem irresponsible to suggest that people should install it this way.
Flexible ducting for stove vent is horrible idea. If at all possible, go with ridged ducting and adjustable 90° to get where you need to go and that would have been great yo use with the existing hole. 🤔
hope your ceiling is not full of grease where you attached the illegal flex duct to your crushed ridgid duct. Flex duct has ribs in it for greasse to collect ( equals a fire hazard) , by not having a correct seal at the rigid duct will allow grease vapors and condensation to collect in your ceiling. That alone creats a health hazard for mold to grow & fire hazard for greaase landing on the insulation and wood products. YOU should have it professionally checked by a range hood installation company so you and your family are safe.
Looks fine to me. There would be a shroud to cover the flex pipe so you will not see it or the electrical box. Roof vent looks fine to me. Lwts remember this is to move smoke or odors out of the house. This is not HVAC. This job looks pretty good. He should have installed the shroud to show the finished job. Nice job.
@@Craig5150EVH Yes I was right. You are a rip-off handyman who overcharges for bad work. If you think this is good work you prove that you know nothing about it. Sad little man. Lol!
It definitely wasn't air tight where it sealed to the final hookup. If I could do it again, I would made the connection for the flex pipe above the roof and then pushed the box vent down into place, instead of trying to tape the connection in that tight corner of the attic
@@YakMotley Lol, trying doesnt cut it when it comes to long term reliability and selling a quality home that wont shaft the next owner with repair bills. Sorry its not nice to say, but lets recommend doing it right EVERYTIME.
Yeah as a ventilation worker, that is a very bad idea. Even when you forget the code and install flex pipe, you cannot clean it with brushes due to it being way too soft.
This is definitely the wrong way to do this - but looking at the comments I see that you already know this. So, did you fix the mess you made of this simple project or are you leaving the fire hazard you created in your ceiling?
Damn bro chill, everyone’s said the same thing about the flex vent, if I were him I’d have made a video showing mistake and fixing it.. hopefully he has learned and fixed it..
Vented through the roof. California rain this year, lots of it. Roof leaked, water came through my Thermador PHE36US vent. Power out. About a $3000 mistake. Don't do it.....not great results. Hey Thermador, learn from this. Will attempt a repair, but likely replace with a non vented range hood from Home Depot, $350.
you should never use FLEX DUCT in a hood install , it will become a fire hazard because of the grease build up and you will never be able to get it clean
Hope you dont live in Canada or where it gets cold ... cause water will be leeking on youre range top ... this installation is only good where its hot all year around and exast is too close to shingles make for a very noisy unit !!!
Hey! How would you recommend to do this (through the attic) I do live in Canada and the attic gets really cold. How would you recommend doing this to avoid the condensation problems ?
Sir.... that flex duct is gonna trap grease and in a worst case scenario cause a fire... and at best it's not gonna vent properly and it's gonna cause things to go bad... you need to use metal vent pipe and find the combination of elbows to get around that rafter as straight as possible.
