This is what I was thinking: My Genair has a vent to the outside. If I have
the switch turned on to vent the air to go outside, while the oven is on, it
vents the oven air to the outside.

If I do not have the switch on, the oven air stays inside my house, hence in
the winter, sometimes I leave my stone in the oven while I am cooking a long
time, and then I leave the oven door open and the stone heats my kitchen.
