Both, it is set up to vent into the home but it came with the stuff to change it over to exterior venting if needed.

It is self venting, or it can be set to exhaust directly to the rear or straight up. The last two options require pre-existing ducting. But yes, it comes set up to self vent. When installing the unit Is installed, you have to move the exhaust system to the direction your installation requires.

Dear Valued Customer:

Thank you for your inquiry regarding Whirlpool microwave model WMH31017AW.

This model is recirculating which does not require a vent to the outside. However, venting to the outside is an option.

Thank you again for your inquiry. We appreciate and value your business!

I'm not sure whether it *can* be vented to the outside, but ours just vents upward into the kitchen, so no, it does not have to vent to the outside.
