The air fryer has become the newest appliance in many kitchens thanks to its great versatility to prepare all types of preparations. From roasts to desserts, the air fryer is an economical alternative to the oven, as its consumption ranges between 700 and 2000 watts, while the oven can reach 5000 watts. This appliance also requires less cooking time, less power and has no heat loss. However, the air fryer also needs ventilation, so where you choose to place it is essential.
One of the most common mistakes is placing the air fryer against the wall. This fact can make it difficult for the device to cool properly, which has fans on the back. Likewise, the top of the air fryer tends to overheat and usually also incorporates vents, so you should avoid placing objects on top of it, such as cups, jars, or mats. In short, the ideal is to reserve a space on the countertop separate from the wall to place your air fryer to extend its useful life and prevent the tiles from becoming stained due to condensation.
