Our stove vent (eg microwave) vents directly through the roof so i know its legal to do so because we filed our gut renovation/its on the plans with DOB etc.

I don’t know what everyone is so confused about, or needs clarification on. Yes, you can vent the hood through the roof.

Are you talking about venting the hood? Stoves don’t have exhaust.

Maybe a plumber? Ours ran a gas vent for a dryer…

We did this but as part of overall construction. I assume you mean the air vent and not the gas. Any kitchen contractor or GC should be able to help but you may need to go with a small firm or handyman/contractor as for some GCs it might be too small a job. You can look on Yelp for handyman and try to see if any have kitchen experience.

the back wall is too far away from the kitchen as well as the front wall; what are fire stops;

To go directly through the roof you need fire stops etc.
It is easier to vent through the back wall.

I believe you need an HVAC person. They are the “duct people”.

a roofer. but you need someone to install the hood and duct on the inside, so start with that and let them either do the vent themselves or find a roofer to do it.

what’s wrong with venting through the roof? I vented the dryer through the roof.
