How well, if at all, do these protect against heat from moisture/steam?

These are only used for our woodstove, which work well, but for wet-type heat I don't know.

They're well insulated....I use them to feed the fire in my wood burning stove. I imagine they would be fine in steam,at least for a short period of time. They are probably not designed for long exposure to moisture.

It is my understanding that they are not fully heat resistant. That is why I originally ordered them. If you are looking for hot pads, these are not them. Rather, they are mats to set things on with a small measure of heat reisistance.

Not sure, mine are on tile floor. But you shouldn't have a moisture problem if your using them indoors with AC or if using in a garage just get a dehumidifier.

Id have to ask what kind of moisture conditions you are subjecting them to. They are pretty stoudtly built . If you are talking about work out conditions , then yes , they hold up well

No problem just keep the heat at meduim low and adjust the moisture vents. No need for foil.

they should stay dry unless you have them in an unusually damp area, like a bathroom. Otherwise they should be good where they are.

I wish I could give you a decent answer but can't. I installed them above our kitchen sink and thus didn't worry about their resilance to humidity. They do work well though.

It says in the product description above (when you scroll down frim top) that they are 100 percent heat resistant... folks need to understand, you should use lower settings though... high can damage it...

would not recommend. They will likely short out secondary to heat and moisture.

I have this and I don't have a problem with moisture. It works great for me. If anything put a paper towel under it to absorb the moisture.

dont know about the hot steam or liquid but they work fine for baking, including removing hot sheet pans or cake pans. I have a feeling that if they got soaked with liquid they would lose their insulation value and effectiveness

moisture is not a problem. I am more concerned with spills and such. One story home do not need sound barrier or anything like that.

They will protect you from the heat very well, the main concern would be if they got enough flammable liquid on them. Kevlar is very easy to put out if it ever did catch on fire. As a welder I have yet to receive any arc or splatter burns thanks to these. To answer your question specifically, yes they would protect you from direct contact with flames and act as a heat shield. If your worried about flammable liquid soaking in you could always run the sleeves under a tap and wring them out which I do just to help with the summer heat.

Yes, they should be fine. Keep the lid tightly closed and out of excess heat and moisture, thanks

In terms of being Air Tight ,they Are pretty Air Tight . I have Not had any Issues with Moisture at all . I have My Baking Flour in one and has held up just fine . Stays Fresh and Dry .

I think that would be fine although you'd want to check heat periodically. They don't seem to get too hot.

Will they still be moist if we store these for use during extended power/water outage?, I think is the question.
