How to Prevent Fog on Windows?

Fog forms from water vapor when it comes into contact with a cold surface such as glass, a mirror, a wall, or a shower enclosure. This phenomenon is called condensation. When the temperature of these surfaces is lower than that of the moisture-laden air, droplets form—this is fog.

Having fog on your windows can be inconvenient and does not always mean that the space is poorly ventilated or optimized. In fact, simply boiling water in a kitchen or taking a hot shower is enough to create fog on windows and glass surfaces.

Fog: A Daily Inconvenience?

Fogging on windows is a daily nuisance that most of us would gladly do without, given its many drawbacks. Whether cooking or showering, you constantly need to clear fog from surfaces to see clearly—this repeated effort is a waste of time.

In professional settings, foggy windows can create a negative impression, making a space seem poorly ventilated and damp. Beyond the visual discomfort, accumulated fog inevitably leaves streaks and dirt on surfaces. Fortunately, there are several solutions—some well-known, others less so.

What Solutions Are Available to Prevent Fog?

There are many ways to prevent fog, some more popular than others. Here, we will explore a few, including the solution offered by Solar Screen.

Dishwashing Liquid

This classic household trick works, but it requires regular manual effort. You need to apply dishwashing liquid to a cloth and wipe your windows frequently to prevent fogging.

Hairdryer

When fog appears, you can use a hairdryer to clear it. While effective, this method is energy-intensive and highly inconvenient. While it may be a feasible solution at home, it is impractical in a professional setting. In open spaces, stores, or salons, using a hairdryer to combat window fogging is simply not an option.
