Metal Surfaces of the extractor and condensation
When using an induction hob and cooking with pans of water some of
the steam produced by the cooking process may condense onto the cold
metallic surfaces. The amount of this condensation on any particular
surface will depend on many factors including the ambient temperature in
the kitchen, the related ambient temperature of the metal surfaces, the
general ventilation within the kitchen and the type of cooking. Using lids on
pans can help reduce the condensation. This is not a fault with either the
hob or extractor if correctly installed.
