venting system

Fume removal pathway

A venting system is an arrangement of ducts, pipes, or openings that allows gases, air, or fumes to escape from an enclosed space.

Buildings have venting systems to remove stale air or combustion byproducts; industrial equipment vents heat or hazardous gases.

The furnace's venting system carries exhaust outside.

Proper venting prevents dangerous buildup of carbon monoxide or pressure.
