Condensation in the incubator
I am having problems with condensation building up on the glass in my incubator. What could be the problem and how do I fix it? Thank you, Penny Burke

Turn up the heat to the door. Condensation happens when the offending surface is colder than the surrounding atmosphere.

He is right, play with the door heater temperature settings. Sometimes it has to be increased, sometimes decreased depending on the conditions in your lab space. I had a unit sitting under a ceiling duct and the condensation was horrible until I changed the door temp setting.

Thank you for your reply. It ended up being a blown fuse to the door heater. Easy and cheap fix for the problem.
