How to prevent condensation from forming on windows: An expert gives simple tips that anyone can put into practice.

If your windows are full of condensation, don’t let it linger. Your entire house could be on fire. Here’s how to easily get rid of it.

After a warm start to September, cooler autumn weather is making its presence felt. While we might want to enjoy the sun a little longer, cold and wet weather is fast approaching. The colder the air outside, the greater the risk of condensation forming on windows. Condensation forms when warm air inside your home comes into contact with the cold surface of the windows. While harmless in itself, it can lead to mold growth.

Mold can cause health problems like allergies, asthma, and other respiratory problems, so it’s important to address condensation problems as soon as they appear. But what can you do to avoid condensation this fall? If you notice condensation on your windows, it doesn’t necessarily mean you need to replace them. Any window can accumulate condensation, and there’s little you can do to prevent moisture from building up on your windows, as we also produce moisture through breathing.
