Tips to Keep Car Warm this Winter | Without fogging up |
"In the winter, the objective is to stay as warm as possible."
In the winter, the objective is to stay as warm as possible. However, there is a catch while aiming to stay warm in the car: with the heating on, it can be quite difficult to keep the glass screens, particularly the windshield, free of fog.
As a result, it's critical to maintain your windshield clear when driving. Here are a few tips that may be useful:
Wear Warm Clothes
Wearing suitable winter clothing is the greatest method to stay warm inside the car without fogging up the windows.
The simplest way to prevent the hassle is to dress warmly! Jackets, gloves, and socks are recommended so that you are completely covered and do not feel the need to switch on the warmth.
Warm-up Your Engine
The first and the foremost thing you need to do when you get inside your car is start your engine. Make sure that you let your engine run for a bit once you get in the car so you can let some of the fog dissipate.
You need to do this before you push the defroster button.
Open windows a little bit
If the exterior vents of your vehicle are blocked or you are unable to get fresh air in through the internal vents for some reason, opening the windows slightly will help.
This will allow new, dry air to replace the heavier, damp air that has accumulated within the vehicle. Once the fog on your screen has gone, you can roll your windows back up and switch on the warmth.
But be careful not to crack the window too much, as this can cause a drop in temperature as the cold winter air enters the car.
Clean Windows
The other thing you need to do is to ensure that your windows are properly cleaned and have no residue left on them.
Moreover, during the winter, keeping clean windows is more important than ever because not only will the dirt make it easier for the fog to build upon your window, but it will also make the fog a dirty color, making it harder to look through the window with the fog build-up.
Similarly, when cleaning your windows in the winter, make sure that you completely dry off your windows before leaving the car.
Use Hot Air with Air Conditioning
When you get inside the car make sure you set your car’s heat to the maximum level as hot air holds more moisture than cold air, so cranking up the heat will help collect moisture that contributes to a foggy windshield. Then, turn off your car’s heater and activate the air conditioner.
This helps pull moisture from the air as it moves over the air conditioner’s cooling coils.
Alternatively, you can also switch on the hot air to warm the vehicle and the air conditioner at the same time.
The air conditioner will dehumidify the air. This will give you the best of both worlds. A warm car, with a dry, clear window to see through.
The other ways to prevent your car from fogging up are as follows:
- Remove any damp items from the car. Try not to leave any beverages or wet umbrellas in the car.
- Apply an anti-fogging coating. There are several anti-fogging sprays on the market that you apply after cleaning the interior of the windscreen.
- You can also use cat litter as the cat litter will help draw out moisture from the air.
