2006 IRC M1503 has the guidelines for kitchen range hoods, but is an exhaust fan actually required in kitchens. If so, please point me to that verse. I can't find it.

Only required if the kitchen has an open grill or one is built into the cooktop. It makes no difference if it is gas or electric.

Thanks. I had a minor disagreement during an inspection.
