I rent in calif a studio- legally how far are the studs in the wall suppose to be to the next stud of a 8x12 room. Also where my stove is i have no hood vent for the heat to go out, is that legal or up to building code, also there is no built in heating system is that legal or not up to code
16" o.c... purpose of hood fan us to move the smell not for heat dissipation.
Studs at 16 centre reason for this because drywall will always be butted to stud now for the rest of your question I can't answer because codes are different from Canada to USA I suggest you do Google search and find the code requirements for USA.
