    Default Venting gas range

    Is a gas range required to be vented to the exterior. I know it should be but does code require it to be vented to the exterior.

    No.

    There is no requirement for a gas range to be vented to the exterior.

    There is a moral requirement, no?

    No ... not unless you also addressed makeup air for the exhaust fan, and also addressed any non-direct vented appliance as those should be direct vent appliances, and makeup air for the clothes dryer, etc.

    I would address any non-vented gas appliance.
    Make-up air for a small room or closet, yes, I would address that too.
