Is not adviseable to have a fan in the kitchen if you are using a gas stove. Fix an exhaust fan to draw out the hot air.

If not using gas stove, you can consider the ceiling oscillating fan which is good for tight space.

Actually we are using gas stove, and yes will install those wall exhaust fan (planning to get the Panasonic 10" type, I guess it should be OK ya? The 12" looks too big)

But the fan is more for ventilation when doing some preparations e.g. washing or cutting. Yes I'm considering this type of oscillating fan but wife said that it doesn't look nice  sweat.gif

I also have the same issue. So what I did is to have a stand fan that blows towards the sink and work area.

The reason why I didnt have a fan in the cooking area is because if memory fails me or any of my family members, a disaster is awaiting.

ya ya traditional way sometimes is betterĀ  tongue.gif

but about the gas stove, as i know if the fire is off (no heat) then the safety valve will shut off the gas supply, so should still be safe ya?

Not trying to frighten you but safety devices do malfunction. Alarm and cctv systems always failed at the critcal moment..... not sure why thou.
