How to Deal with Fog on the Windshield?
1 Answers
Methods to defog the windshield include: turning on the heater, opening the windows, using chemical products, and cooling to remove fog. Here are the details: Using the Heater to Remove Fog: In northern regions, after clearing snow from the vehicle, a thin layer of fog often remains on the windows. Turning on the heater at this time will quickly clear the fog. Some vehicles have a one-touch defogging feature, which also uses this principle to achieve defogging. Opening the Windows to Remove Fog: Sometimes, the fog on the windshield is caused by the hot air exhaled by passengers. Opening the windows can dissipate the hot air. However, this method works well in the south but is not recommended in the north, as the cold air from opening the windows is unbearable for many. Using Chemical Products to Remove Fog: These can be purchased at many 4S stores and auto repair shops. Applying the chemical product to the windshield prevents further fogging. Cooling to Remove Fog: The reason the windshield fogs up is due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the glass. Adjusting both temperatures to a similar level will naturally eliminate the fog.
