Reasons for the appearance

Consider the reasons for the fogging of glass in the car interior:

• Worn and / or dirty pollen filter. A cabin filter that has not been replaced in time can accumulate moisture, especially in the summer period, when air conditioning is often used.
• High humidity in the vehicle interior. Sources of this cause may be wet carpets in the cabin, steaming hot drinks, wet clothes of passengers or the driver, moisture ingress through rubber bands, wet seat covers, etc.
• After washing the car. If you wash your vehicle frequently and the rubber seals are already worn out, moisture can enter the passenger compartment, causing the windows to fog up.
• Antifreeze leaking from the stove. This problem can significantly increase the humidity in the cabin.

Prevent and eliminate fogging

Several recommendations for fogging windows in a car:

• Glass processing from the inside. In car dealerships and car markets, you can purchase a special product designed to prevent glass fogging. You can also make such a tool yourself.
• Get rid of various unnecessary things in the salon. These can be bedspreads, blankets that absorb and retain moisture for a long time.
• It is also recommended to change the cabin filter in time.
• Drying. A useful action will be periodic drying of the car interior, as well as rugs, covers or seat covers.
• Nanofilm. Glass in a car can be coated with nanofilm, but this procedure is expensive.
• Check the performance of air ducts, valves and other parts responsible for heating and ventilation in the passenger compartment.
• It is recommended to always have a clean, dry rag in the car for wiping the glass in case of fogging.
