'Ja sam stručnjak za prozore – evo kako u potpunosti spriječiti kondenzaciju na prozorima zimi'

John Cutts, glass expert at MeandMyGlass.co.uk said: “It’s common for people to find their windows have steamed up overnight which often results in a damp windowsill.

„Dok kondenzacija may not seem like an issue, it can become a serious problem once kalup počinje da se razvija rast koji se lako može proširiti po prostoriji.

“Preporučujemo da ujutro odvojite vrijeme da obrišete kondenzaciju sa prozora, otvorite ih kako biste omogućili više ventilacije i zapečatili sve pukotine na prozorima koje bi mogle pogoršati problem.”

1. Kućne biljke

Sobne biljke including spider plants and orhideje are known to help reduce moisture in the air, which can prevent condensation.

For best results, the expert recommended placing them on windowsills, close to windows which get condensation.

2. Use a dehumidifier

The expert explained: “Mould develops when there is excess moisture in the air which is why investing in a dehumidifier can help eliminate the problem.

“Having them placed on a windowsill can effectively absorb the moisture and prevent the spread from escalating.”

3. Keep windows open

While it may be hard to keep windows open all night, ventilation throughout the day can reduce indoor humidity levels.

Keeping windows open also works helping to prevent mould growth so make sure to do this as much as possible throughout the winter months.

4. Turn the heating on in the morning

Putting the heating on for around 20 minutes in the morning can help to control the humidity in the room, according to the expert.

The pro added: “Open the windows first to get a healthy airflow going, then put the heating on to stop the windows from steaming up.

“If the condensation has resulted in serious mould growth on walls and ceilings, you may need to call in professionals as it could be due to external issues in the building making it worse.”

5. Keep blinds and curtains away from the glass

If blinds and curtains are touching the glass, it can block the airflow, contributing to condensation throughout the night.

Make sure they are kept a good distance away from any windows or doors to help prevent water from building up.
