I bought my first house in July 2021, yay! However, the kitchen, though spacious, retains all the food smell from cooking. There is a microwave of the stove, but I noticed that when cooking, it vents right into my face 🙂
Perhaps whoever put in an over the stove microwave forgot to vent through the wall. Kitchen window is small too, and the scent of food permeates the entire house.
Congrats on the house! An exciting day, so microwaves, vents, and hoods can vent 3 ways. Top vent outside, back vent outside, or recirculating in your face. If you are on an outside wall, the microwave should just have the motor spun to face the rear, then a hole needs to be cut outside and vented. It is very doable. 99% of all micros can do this. GE made a few models that start with JNM the “N” meant non vented. So check the model tag if you happen to have a GE. Great idea to vent it now as you will be there for many years. So the key here is if on the outside wall, because if not, then some tricky venting may be involved. A Handyman, contractor, etc., can do the job with ease.
