How can I prevent my car windows from fogging up in the winter?

Question

In the winter it gets so fogged up in the car that you can barely see out the windows. Last winter, I actually had ice form on the inside of the windows. What can I do to prevent this from happening this winter? Not only is this annouying as he*l. Its also a safety issue as I cant see out the windows.

Answer 1

Apply some Rain-X defogging spray to the inside of your windows---parts stores carry it. Buy a remote starter and pre-start your car 15-20 minutes before you need it to let it warm up. Crack the drivers window open a little to allow moisture/humidity to escape.

Answer 2

no count if that's warmer interior the motor vehicle than that's exterior it is going to entice condensation, comparable to the way your glass of iced tea exterior in summer season will develop into moist. It pulls the moisture form the air which will become greater dense and as a result coats your window and fogs it up. additionally it ought to be ice that's why you opt for for the defroster.. then that turns the ice to water that your windshield wipers can splash away.

Answer 3

Other answers so far are good, but I'd make sure there is no water inside the car or in the luggage compartment. Pull the carpets to check and look in the space under the spare wheel.

Answer 4

Run your air-conditioner...that will quickly dry out the air inside the car. Many cars automatically run the air conditioning compressor when you select the defrost setting.

You don't have to run the A/C cold, you can leave it on warm.

Answer 5

Ensure that:

The heater works, and is set to hot.
The air is NOT set on recirculate.
The blowers are set to defrost the windshield.

Answer 6

You can buy a defogger or deicer at the store, and make sure you have your defrost on (on heat) when you are driving.
