Fogged car windows. Reasons
This is probably a problem for most drivers in the autumn and winter season. After starting the engine and due to the large temperature difference and high air humidity inside the vehicle, moisture appears on the windows. It only takes a moment after entering the car and we want to start driving, and the windows lose their transparency and moisture appears on them. Why is this happening? Sometimes it results from incorrect use of the car’s air vents, and sometimes it is a natural phenomenon related to the weather. Unfortunately, fogged car windows not only negatively affect the comfort of using the vehicle, but above all, safety, as they significantly impair visibility. Many drivers unsuccessfully fight this annoying problem by wiping their windows with a damp cloth. However, it seems like a Sisyphean task, because after a while the windows are fogged up again.
How to set the airflow so that the car windows do not fog up?
If you want or simply speed up drying, remember a few important rules related to winter. First, set the air flow directly to the windows, preferably cold air or air conditioning. If you use warm air, be sure to open the windows slightly to let the moisture out of the car outside. Always wipe the windows with a cotton cloth. If you have fabric mats, replace them with rubber ones, because the material absorbs a lot of moisture – and when the air in the car is heated, it will release it. There’s another one in the car. You’ll find it in Action.
