The water vapor liquefies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are the most practical tips that always help eliminate condensation and, above all, prevent it permanently:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Immediate Removal and First Aid (Immediate Measures)<br>Wipe: Immediately wipe away the condensation with a dry, absorbent cloth (or a special window vacuum).<br>Why? Standing moisture, especially in the seals and on the window frame, is the ideal breeding ground for mold.<br>Caution: Also remove moisture from the windowsill and in the corners of the seals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Most Important Prevention: Proper Ventilation<br>Proper ventilation is the most effective method for reducing moisture (humidity) in a room.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ventilation (3 to 5 times a day): Open the window completely (don&#8217;t just tilt it!) for 5 to 10 minutes.<br>Cross ventilation: It is most effective to open opposite windows or doors simultaneously to create a draft. This quickly exchanges the humid indoor air with dry outdoor air.<br>After moisture production: Ventilate immediately after showering, bathing, cooking, or sleeping.<br>Humidity measurement: Use a hygrometer (humidity meter). A healthy humidity level is ideally between 40% and 60%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Efficient heating and temperature control<br>Constant temperature: Maintain a constant base temperature in rooms (e.g., 20\u00b0C in living rooms, 16\u201318\u00b0C in bedrooms).<br>Why? A very cold window dramatically increases the risk of condensation.<br>Keep radiators clear: Do not place large furniture, curtains, or laundry directly in front of radiators. Warm air must be able to circulate freely to warm the window surfaces.<br>Close doors: Keep doors to colder rooms (e.g., bedrooms or rarely used storage rooms) closed. This prevents warm, humid air from the living area from flowing into the cooler room and condensing there.<br><br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reduce sources of moisture<br>Drying laundry: Try not to dry laundry in living rooms if possible. Use the basement, attic, balcony, or a clothes dryer with an outside exhaust.<br>Exhaust and exhaust: Always use the extractor hood when cooking. If available, turn on the bathroom or toilet fan.<br>Plants: Don&#8217;t group many houseplants too close to the window, as they also release moisture.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Technical Support (optional)<br><br><br>Dehumidifier: In rooms where humidity remains consistently above 60% despite ventilation, an electric dehumidifier or a granular dehumidifier (especially for small, poorly ventilated corners) can help.<br>Check windows: If condensation is very heavy and persistent despite all measures, this may indicate poor insulation (old windows\/seals) or structural defects that require inspection by a professional.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Condensation on windows occurs when warm, humid air hits a cold surface (the window pane) and cools there.
