Turns out gas stoves emit benzene in non-trivial amounts... Damnit.

"Good ventilation helps reduce pollutant concentrations, but we found that exhaust fans were often ineffective at eliminating benzene exposure,"

From the article..

I read that but I'm putting in to use the exhaust fan no matter whether you use electric, induction or gas, it's a good habit. As another person replying pointed out, conversions to gas stove can sometimes skimp out on upgrading the range hood fan to achieve the higher ventilation needs. The fan combined with open windows can improve ventilation even if not perfect.
