Cuisinart Excess Condensation / Drainage Issue

Condensation and water drip from the door or vent onto the ground.

Possible Causes

High humidity inside cabinet, Overfilled water pan, Blocked condensation channels, Smoker not level

Safety first: Ensure the smoker is stable before adjusting its position.

Level the smoker: Use a level to ensure the smoker sits flat so condensation drains correctly into the drip pan.
Adjust water level: Do not overfill the water pan; use only the amount recommended.
Open vent slightly: Allow some moisture to escape by keeping the vent partially open.
Clean channels: Clear any built‑in drain channels or lips at the door frame of grease and debris.
