We are in the middle of our LQ project. I am trying to decide if I want a hood vent over my 4 burner stove and oven. Do you guys use yours very much if you have one? If you don't have one, do you wish you did? I do have a small window next to my stove. Thanks for any input.
This has been some project!!! Built several houses without any problems. THis has been a challenge!

In warmer temperatures, firing up the stove without a vent, will quickly raise the interior temperature of your LQ to uncomfortable levels. It is a definite must. Even with the vent available, we often forgo the burners in favour of the microwave which produces little heat.

My trailer has both an exhaust fan and a vent. I do have to to out and manually remove the vent cover but I would not use my cooktop with at least opening the vent. Most of the time I also run the exhaust fan. But then I am slightly paranoid about gas fumes and the whole lack of oxygen thing. The size of my LQ dictates extreme precautions! It is without a doubt the smallest LQ in the history of LQs but I like it!
