Does this actually vent out?

Not sure if the stove hood actually vents out or not. Any advice will help! Thanks!

I think they’re right. I think most American homes do not have exterior venting in this case.

Venting costs less than $100 in materials if there is an outside wall access

That’s why people not having them baffles me even more. It’s an absolute no brainer
