chance of condensation forming.

There are many variables that can contribute to the condensation problem associated with induction

cooktops and rangehoods. Some of these variables include, but are not limited to:

 The Country or State you live in (example, WA versus VIC, and the variables in daily temperatures)

 The position of your home and kitchen (morning/afternoon sun)

 The quality of pots and cookware you are using

 Height of rangehood

 Rapid heating

 Ducting angle

 Filter size

If induction, vitro-ceramic hobs and the like are not used correctly, they can lead to problems with the

condensation of liquids due to temperature differences. After some time in use, these condensed liquids

which can affect the rate of aspiration.

 Follow the advice from the instructions for induction systems with regards to the condensation
