When homeowners think of kitchen ventilation – they think about the removal of smoke, steam, grease and odors.
If you aren’t careful, steam, smoke, gas fumes and other toxins can slowly wreak havoc on the quality of the air in your home. They lead to pollution – just like the air pollution that we experience outdoors.
It’s true that a proper ventilated kitchen mitigates those, but there is an even more important role that ventilation plays: it improves indoor air quality.
Don’t forget the benefits of natural ventilation through open kitchen windows.
This is a nice way to get some fresh air into the kitchen, which we forget about in an era where range hoods are everywhere. Another benefit? That same window will also provide lovely natural light.
