Can Car Heater Remove Fog?
2 Answers
Car heater can remove fog. When there is a significant temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car window, fog will form on the glass. At this time, after the engine coolant reaches normal temperature, turn on the heater, set the air circulation to external circulation to allow outside air to enter, reduce the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the glass, and eliminate the fog inside the window. Then switch to internal circulation to evaporate the fog. Methods to remove window fog: 1. Cold air defogging: Turn on the front windshield defogging button, open the cold air switch, and direct the airflow toward the windshield to quickly remove fog; 2. Purchase a defogging spray: Apply the defogging spray to the windshield in advance and wipe it clean to prevent fog from forming while driving.
I used to struggle with foggy windshields, especially on humid days. Here's how to solve it with warm air: Turn the AC knob to heat, direct airflow to the windshield, and set the fan to at least level 3. Hot air quickly evaporates moisture by heating the surface. Use external air circulation to introduce dry air for better results; when humidity is high, briefly open and close the windows—defogging takes less than a minute. This method is safe, preventing accidents from obscured vision. I always keep this setup ready in my car—simple and efficient.
