8. Maintenance Condensation Information The induction cooktop is designed to provide rapid heating, improved thermal efficiency and greater heat consistency. For some customers with an induction cooktop, condensation can form on their rangehood filters while using their cooktop. The induction cooktops’ heat source is contained in the conductive base of the pot. When compared with a gas, electric or wok burner, the heat is not isolated or contained to one area and therefore gradually rises up on all sides of the pot or frypan.
