I live in the front half of a 3rd floor brownstone co-op apartment. The kitchen is very small and windowless. There is a small vent in the ceiling of the kitchen which doesn’t appear to do anything. I don’t know where the vent goes or how to locate the exit point. Whenever I cook the apartment gets smoky. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Should we call in a roofer or someone who specializes is HVAC or a contractor? Any recommendations would be helpful.
