5th Wheel Torques have no Stove Vent? What gives?

[PaulsTorque]

So I noticed that on my 2019 TQ 327 the over head stove fan only sucks up and shoots the air to the sides.......inside the unit. I first went outside to look for the vent cap to open it but then in short order noticed it doesn't have one. What gives?! I don't know about you but I detest the smell of food in my rig. Granted, I mainly cook outside but sometimes the weather just doesn't permit it and am forced to cook inside. Why would there not be a vent installed at the time of manufacturing?

Rant over and thanks in advance for an answer.

It probably is one of the factory build deletions that makes the Torque series an affordable price-point TH, compared to to higher line, more expensive series'.

well I guess. My even more budget friendly prior Puma had at least a stove vent. I guess I won't complain too much. I got this thing at an incredible price point with a lot of new to me features and creature comforts.

That's the same as my range at home.

I don't think it would be too difficult to add a vent.
Basically it's a hole in the wall with a little sheet metal.
Exterior vent cover is about $15 on eBay and the damper door about $15 as well.

Mine too. Thinking about changing it but it will be quite the chore to add it to the house. Like cookie said, likely pretty easy for the RV.

Same at our house. That’s how we test the smoke detectors

How's that saying go...........measure once, cut twice.

And then try to figure out how to put back 1/2 of the last cut!

You have that nice factory cut out window in your back entrance door. Ours did not have that. And the wife found a beautiful stained glass window at Goshen last year and wanted to add it to the trailer. So I had to cut out a window in the rear door.

I do like my doors having the glass in it. These also have the built in shade.
