Well after Christmas and New Year festivities we may all be feeling a bit steamed up. But this in not about us, its about our steamed up windows that can present a significant safety risk with the danger increasing when the weather is wet and cold.
In this weather, the air is generally more humid than in spring and summer and with the addition of our clothing, shoes and umbrellas, it means that moisture is carried into the interior of the vehicle again and again. Thus, water remains in the car. This water collects on the floor mats, for example and if the car is full of passengers, the build-up of fogging is increased due to human breath.
Using the air-conditioning system quickly ensures a clear view. It dries the air in the interior and the windows quickly become clear again. You may need to put on extra coats, hats, woolly scarves and mittens as the air conditioning works its wonders, but if you have recirculated-air operation, select this as the de-steaming will happen even more quickly. Set to the maximum and direct the air flow to the windows.
What happens is the air is warmed up and dried at the same time, which contributes to making the interior climate healthier.
There, that will suffice the children on the school run.
