I have a wall mount microwave that vents through the wall. In the winter months I noticed small icicles that develop on the vinyl siding from condensation while using stove and microwave. It’s ply gem siding with tyvek. Haven’t really took anything apart yet to see what can be done. Wondering if anyone had this problem and what the solution is.

Warm moist air and frigid temps.
Wait for spring.
If it’s coming from behind the siding, redo the vent exit.
Thank you. I will have to see what kind of insulation wrap or tape is available. Maybe use a piece of vinyl roll stock behind there.
