An exhaust apparatus includes a first exhausting section including a first exhausting member and a first flow path provided with an air inlet disposed above a heating device for heating a recording medium, a second exhausting section including a second exhausting member and a second flow path provided with an air inlet disposed downstream of the heating device in a transporting direction of the recording medium, and a third flow path provided with an air inlet disposed upstream of the heating device in the transporting direction. The first and second flow paths cause air in a housing that accommodates the heating device to flow to the outside. The first and second exhausting member exhaust the air using the first and second flow paths. The third flow path causes the air to flow from the air inlet thereof to the air inlet of the first flow path.
