<DIV>So to clarify, I’m gaining nothing in using that vent for moisture
dissipation? I do think the vent is trapping moisture as the windows aren’t
fogging up when I use it but did before when I did not. If it’s just for grease
and odors, I’ll stop wasting the power in using it.</DIV>

just a second-best solution to dealing with grease and odors when exterior

renovations. They're moderately effective at best.<BR><BR>I doubt they'd have
any effectiveness on gasses such as CO since they aren't readily
