Default Microwave venting

I contracted with Jim Bader 352-406-0952 to vent it. He cored through my pored concrete wall and installed a very modest looking vent. It works great. He also gave me the option to vent up through the roof but going through the wall was less work and I wasn't eager to put another vent through my roof.
