Moisture issues and stubborn black stains on walls happen more often than people realize. Not every home has new windows and doors to stop drafts and water leaks. Wall insulation in many buildings isn’t enough to shield against cold and humidity, which lets moisture creep in and cause trouble.

How to remove condensation from windows
Steamed windows aren’t just a winter problem. They can appear in spring as well as inside any room. Condensation happens when warm, moisture laden air meets a cold surface. This effect appears in two forms: film condensation and droplet condensation. In the droplet form, water vapor changes into droplets on glass and mirrors and can leave halos behind.
To cut down on moisture, it’s important to ventilate the room right away so steam can escape. A home dehumidifier can also help reduce humidity levels. The question becomes how to eliminate the droplets that leave marks on windows and create visible damp patches.
First, to prevent sweating windows, clean the glass thoroughly with alcohol or a dedicated cleaner. Then mix two tablespoons of liquid soap such as Marseille soap or dish soap into a liter of water. Add a teaspoon of liquid glycerin and stir well.
Use a microfiber cloth, damp but well squeezed, and apply the mixture across the glass. When droplets appear, this solution helps them disappear quickly, leaving the surface dry and shiny.
