That's awkward.

Are both doors to other internal rooms or is one an end wall? In
that case you could go through that.

Otherwise, is it feasible to swap the kitchen around mirror image so
that the cooker is on the outside wall?
I know it sounds daft for the sake of a cooker and hood, but if the
room is also relatively small, it's even more important to try and
extract to the outside.

Hi Andy,

Both doors are internal, in walls perpendicular to the outside wall, but not in
line with each other. The original plan was an 'L' shape surface along the
outside wall containing hob and, across the corner, a 'designer' (Franke) sink
some 300 x 430 mm. And a mirror image 'L' on the internal wall opposite
containing the double oven in the corner of the 'L'. Having thought more about
the sink, we have concluded that it will be too small for things such as grill
pans etc. On the basis that we cannot run sink waste across the floor of the
kitchen, we are considering relocating the hob to the internal surface and
installing a standard size sink somewhere else on the external surface. The
advantage of that is co-locating the 'hot' stuff and a useable sink.

I suppose that I could route a duct along the ceiling/internal wall junction
through the top of the oven housing and then up into the ceiling void and so to
the outside wall or just along the ceiling to the outside wall. sigh I wish
one could attach files!

What do you think about cleaning 'in void' ducting?
