*I* just recently (about 3 months ago) installed a new range hood, ventless, in the kitchen I just totally re-did, there was no charcoal filter, just the grease filter.
I also know that virtually all range hoods can be installed vented or ventless as most all (many not all) not come with removable panels for vented hoods. Back when I first installed those ranges hoods - about 35 years ago, and many times since, there have been changes made. Back then, you could order the hood 'vented' or ventless', now, most come adaptable for your installation.
