We had an addition put on and the original exhaust was blocked by one of the new walls. We told the contractor that we would convert our vent hood to a filter, but now we want to vent it. Problems are directly above the exhaust is 5 feet from a corner in a bed room. Directly 90 degrees away is in the dining room that my wife doesn't want to modify.
I'm thinking of going 90 degrees the inward direction, the 5 feet to get to the corner in the bedroom and then up to above the new edition's roof line. The inward direction has open cabinet bulk head.
Will it end up with too many turns in the exhaust? Describe the best process for starting and proceeding, then finishing the job. I want to evaluate if the job is too much for my skills. If I do this job myself and I do it well, will it effect the value of the house a lot or only a little, if at all?
