smokette left in the rain

These are very well built smokers and quite frankly there are not to many areas for water to enter. But it always best to err on the side of caution. I would call CS customer service for their recommendation. But if you are comfortable taking it apart then here is what I would do.

I would open the door and give it a thorough drying in the sun. If possible I would remove the outer cabinet and check the insulation for wetness. While opened, and wearing cloves, carefully remove insulation if necessary to get to the wires and electrical connections at the element and the controller and dry them as well. Once you have everything thoroughly dried, inside and out, reassemble and try it out.

But again, call CS and see what they recommend.

I left my old SM020 out in the rain, snow, sleet. Worst that happened was a little rust on the controller. Fire it up, don't worry about it.

thank you...

It works fine. Did not have to do anything. I just let it dry for 3 days. Plus, I decided to clean the smoker. I had not cleaned the inside or grates in 5 years,
