Range hood vant

[Mike Picarello]

Does anyone know for sure if venting a range hood using PVC pipe is allowed; if so is 2" large enough? Thanks as always

No, it is not. Think of a fire on the stove and the flames going up the grease laden PVC pipe. What do you think would happen?

Thanks Scott, that make sence.
BTW, I did find it in the IRC after I posted.
