UK homeowners battle winter window condensation; experts recommend shaving foam as a temporary fix but stress better ventilation is key.
As colder weather returns, UK homeowners face rising issues with window condensation, risking mould, damp, and structural damage.
Experts recommend a low-cost temporary fix: applying shaving foam to glass, wiping it off to leave a film that reduces moisture buildup, especially in bathrooms.
However, they stress this is not a long-term solution.
The primary cause is poor ventilation from cooking, showering, or drying clothes indoors.
To prevent condensation, experts advise using extractor fans, opening windows, keeping trickle vents open, sealing gaps around windows, and maintaining consistent indoor temperatures.
These steps help reduce humidity and protect homes and health.
