The last place I lived-in had a hood over the electric stove/oven. The exhaust-port included a steel-mesh grease-filter before the fan. Then the exhaust entered a zinc-coated-tin (?) duct about 6 inches in diameter and 10 feet long. It travelled straight above a row of cupboards to a side-wall and to the outdoors ... exiting through a louvered vent.
I suspect such a setup doesn't have to cost much. In return I enjoyed many years of cooking, summer and winter, without mostly without the odors & humidity.
I missed it as soon as I moved here ... although the vent is up-through-the-roof vertical, it's very ineffective ... and I can no longer cook most things I once took for granted.
