I have an on going problem when my neighbours are cooking. They use the extractor fan above their cooker and I recently asked them where their vent was situated. Each time they cook we get the smell of fumes from their cooking entering our home which is a terraced house. Sometime in the past a kitchen extension was built onto the house and have a shared roof space. There is no access into the roof space but the neighbour has access on his property. The extractor vent goes through ceiling into the roof space and the fumes somehow get through into our home going into most rooms. My Daughter has contracted Asthma recently and we believe it is because of the fumes. My wife's health also suffers at times. This Extractor vent does not connect to anything so the fumes can be emitted outside the house. Is this against building regulations.?
