Common site factors that make icing more likely include:
Hot, humid prep areas, especially in summer or during heavy cooking.
Fridge positioned beside fryers, ovens, dishwashers, or pot-wash, where warm moist air is constant.
Poor ventilation around the unit, which can affect overall performance and recovery.
