Hello,
I have a thin strip of wall in which I hope I can fit a vent for the cooker extractor hood.
The idea is to bring the ducting along the top of the cupboards and out through the wall. Here's a picture of the setup:
The pipes will be moved to the white side of the wall and boarded over with plasterboards, leaving a 250mm workable distance.
I have two concerns:
1. Given the overlap of the lintil above the door, will drilling a 100mm hole be safe?
2. Given that this is a party wall, and my neighbours door + window is right next to me, am I too close?
If so can I run a vertical pipe up the outside of the house to overcome this?
Thank You
d.
