Hi,
I hope this is the right place to get some advice on ventilation for our kitchen.
We recently had a kitchen/dining room extension built onto our 1930s house. This has increased the size of the room to some 33 square metres. The old dining room leads directly onto the new build through an open wall, although the original wall that separated the kitchen from the dining room is still in situ. This gives a overall open space on around 43 square metres. The room is well ventilated with two sets of French doors and two windows that open, with a fitted gas hob and an electric double oven.
My question is: do building regulation require us to install a flued extractor hood, a charcoal filter one, or can we go without?
Many thanks for your anticipated help...
