When the exhaust slows down, the process becomes less efficient.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A longer ducting route also means more ducting material. The more ducting material there is, the more likely it is that there will be a leak somewhere in the material.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With all of these factors in consideration, the shorter the ducting route, the better, and sometimes, venting through the soffit is the shortest route. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Vent Location Considerations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Distance from Property Lines<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As stated in <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/codes.iccsafe.org\/content\/IRC2021P2\/chapter-15-exhaust-systems#IRC2021P2_Pt05_Ch15_SecM1504.3\" target=\"_blank\">Section M1504.3<\/a> of the IRC, to vent your range hood exhaust, the location of the exhaust system opening must be more than 3 feet from property lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/distance-of-an-exhaust-system-from-the-property-line.jpg\" alt=\"distance of an exhaust system from the property line\" class=\"wp-image-24409\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/distance-of-an-exhaust-system-from-the-property-line.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/distance-of-an-exhaust-system-from-the-property-line-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/distance-of-an-exhaust-system-from-the-property-line-768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/distance-of-an-exhaust-system-from-the-property-line-735x536.jpg 735w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/distance-of-an-exhaust-system-from-the-property-line-335x244.jpg 335w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/distance-of-an-exhaust-system-from-the-property-line-347x253.jpg 347w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/distance-of-an-exhaust-system-from-the-property-line-520x379.jpg 520w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/distance-of-an-exhaust-system-from-the-property-line-640x467.jpg 640w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/distance-of-an-exhaust-system-from-the-property-line-960x700.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw -

This is largely because range hood exhaust is warm and will naturally rise rather than sink towards the mechanical air intake opening.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 10-feet regulation for is in place because mechanical air intakes actively pull air in. So, there must be a larger space between the intake and the exhaust opening to ensure that the exhaust isn&rsquo;t pulled back into the home for air quality and comfort reasons.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benefits of Venting Range Hoods Through Soffits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can Be the Shortest Route<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite some challenges with following the IRC, venting your range hood exhaust through the soffit can have the benefit of being the shortest route.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Venting via a route that is as short as possible can be very efficient and lead to energy savings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">No Holes Cut in the Roof<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Venting through the roof is an option for range hoods. However, it has the drawback of necessitating cutting a hole into your roof. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only is roofing material quite hard to cut through, but cutting through the roofing material can damage its integrity.&nbsp;This could lead to <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/why-is-range-hood-dripping\/\">water leaking from your range hood<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image

of your roof, it is mostly impervious to weather interference.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The problem with venting through the roof is that rain or snow can get through the backdraft damper since the range

lower the efficiency of the exhaust system since the flow of the wind inward would counteract the outward flow of the exhaust.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Venting through the soffit will drastically reduce

rises, when you vent through the soffit, the air is vented downwards.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhaust from your kitchen will most likely be warm since the heat from the oven is being captured as well as the heat byproducts of your various kitchen appliances.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That being said, this hot kitchen exhaust will decrease the overall efficiency of the system since flow downwards will be much slower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prolinerangehoods.com\/blog\/is-it-safe-to-cook-without-range-hood\/\" target=\"_blank\"
