Hi,


I realized i mounted my Arlo Pro Camera about 2 feet from the vent for the washing machine.  When i dry clothes, hot steam comes out.  My camera was slightly wet from this steam.  Will steam be an issue?  I know its water proof but since steam is vapors, it maybe able to go through areas where liquid cannot?  I notice the vents for the sound have holes.

I guess you mean the vent for the dryer... 🙂

 

It shouldn't harm the camera, but it may cause condensation on the lens which can make it blurry...

I would move it or add a deflection flap so the water vaper goes the other way.
