As temperatures drop in Scotland, condensation can form on windows, leading to black mould. Here are six simple ways to prevent condensation: keep curtains open at night, open windows while cooking, dry clothes outside, use extractor fans, avoid drying clothes indoors, and use a dehumidifier.
As temperatures plummet in Scotland this weekend, people will be heating up their homes and getting the blankets out for the winter.
Keep windows open while cooking When using any appliance in the kitchen that heats up the home, such as the oven or even the kettle, steam will be produced, and that can cause condensation. The experts said: "If you’re unable to dry washing outdoors, then place it in a room with plenty of windows so that you can open them and allow the moisture to escape."
"The longer you spend in the shower the more steam that is produced, which will create condensation. To prevent this, open the bathroom window before or after your shower and don’t spend as long in there, as this will reduce the amount of steam."
