Bonnet Triangular Condensation Mark

Post by cirkz »

Hi,

Very odd question here, but I have noticed a large triangular mark and several other marks on the bonnet when the bonnet has condensation on it!

I imagine it is the indentation of the underside of the bonnet showing through.

Is this normal lol?

It's normal.

It's the bracing sections of the bonnet. They transfer heat at a different rate due to the extra 'thickness' of the metal there so the frost melts at different rates and leaves the shape of the braces below standing out.
