I know the truth is out there, but I like to stay in...

Venting is optional, to remove smoke from high heat cooking or to not
heat up a home in summer. No stove must be vented , plus its extra
free heat in winter. It can be vented up with ductwork in the wall.
Gee its not even gas, why are you worried.

Agree. The downdraft vent is just there to suck up smoke from the
range and has nothing to do with the oven. I have a Jenn-Air range
with a similar downdraft and the oven is a seperate unit 6 feet away
with no venting.
