Clean windshield is one of the important factors of safe driving. But even in the summer, when sitting a few people and the side Windows closed while driving at glasses, first formed a light haze and then fog up the windshield. And what can we say, when it's inclement weather, or autumn slush, not to mention the slush caused in the saloon with passengers ' feet.

This phenomenon is not a harmless joke and a serious thing to neglect which in any case impossible. Under normal conditions, summer or dry autumn, the fog on the windshield from the inside can be wiped with the hand or a dry cloth, if any, will be on hand. Once the car is set at a constant temperature, the fog on the rear window itself is cleared of moisture. But, when it comes to driving in the winter, windshield fogging becomes a serious value that could lead to accidents, and slippery roads to do without the injury or death is not always possible.

Why misty in the car

Note

In the new car, equipped with climate control, rarely observed clogging of the drain a drain that leads to the fact that going in the air picks up some steam and throwing it to the salon.

Reasons why misty in the car a few, and to allocate from them the most serious is difficult, each in itself carries some inconvenience, but all together they pose a serious threat.

Windshield fog up because of increased humidity in the cabin. After cleaning, particularly wet, not thoroughly blow all moisture from carpets, upholstery, insulation, seat covers, all the cracks of the cabin. This moisture, plus the air that you breathe out passengers in an enclosed cabin space and form the film of moisture, which settles on colder surfaces, i.e. glass. And in cars with a longer service life be sure to find one or two microscopic openings in the housing interior, so it is important preparation for work in autumn-winter period when it is necessary to conduct complete sealing of the salon.

How to deal with the fogging glasses in the car

Since the main reason that fog up the windshield, is the temperature difference between inside and outside the car, the first thing you need to configure the devices blowing the air out of the vents was aimed at the window. In the presence of air conditioning required to turn it on and he quickly drained the air of the cabin. In any case, when preparing to drive in the fall and winter you need to check the cabin filter and replace if necessary.

The market offers many methods for eliminating fogging of the windshield. They differ in quality and accordingly in price. But they work on the same principle – they changed the parameter of the surface tension of the film on the windshield, so microdroplets of moisture just roll down without stopping on the surface of the glass. To name a specific brand we do not undertake, as even smells different media can affect your choice.

The problem of fogging is not new, therefore, formed a sort of set of national resources by which drivers were eliminated this problem. Some advise to use a small bag of salt, which periodically rubbed the condensation off the windshield, others offer to dissolve in alcohol 1/10 part glycerine and RUB them glass. The simplest method is to open the side window, or the window, if any. The flow of air from the cabin quickly pull excess moisture, the only thing that is a thermal discomfort.

Recently begun to offer special foils are applied to the surface of the windshield, and for a while it will be protected from fogging.

On most modern production cars to fight against fogging and freezing glass uses a built-in heated glass rear window and a custom heated and this is installed on the front glass, which allows to eliminate the phenomenon in just a few minutes.

But, in any case, moisture in the cabin to fight. Time dried the floor mats, wet rags that must be removed from the cabin, a small bag of salt, which you can put under the rear seat will reduce the humidity and will help to ensure that the reduced possibility of fogging windshield and rear window, and sometimes the side.

Well, the last. Keep in mind that drunk people exhale vapors of alcohol that pulls moisture from everywhere and that precipitated on the glass surfaces, and the traffic police receive an extra reason to make a complaint to the driver, even if he never used anything stronger than coffee.
