A LITTLE wind never hurt anyone – and for one woman, it was the solution to her condensation problem.
She explained that she tried a German trick that got rid of her foggy windows.
Stacklettes (@stacklettes) shared her problem in a video with over 35,000 TikTok followers.
In a previous video, she explained that she struggled with her windows constantly fogging up with condensation.
“Okay so this is exactly why I seal my windows,” she said filming the condensation on the glass.
There was even a small pool of water that had collected at the bottom of the window.
“Every morning, when the weather starts to get cold here in New Hampshire, this is what my windows look like,” she continued.
“They fill with water, so if I take my finger and run it across the window, the water literally drips down and it pools along the bottom sill.
“It does that on the top section and the bottom section, so they’re filled with condensation and the moisture is really, really damaging.”
She tried putting tape around the frame — and though it helped, followers offered even. more tips
Stacklettes was especially blown away by one of the helpful — and free — tips she got.
“The wonderful people of Germany showed up in full force when I asked for their help,” she said.
“I tried lüften, I think that’s how you say it… I took your advice and I went around my home on the first and second floor and I just opened up every single window,” she said.
She kept her windows open for three to five minutes and found that the moisture on her windows disappeared.
“Dry windows!!! What a difference! Thank you so much to the wonderful people in Germany for their help and insight!!” she said.
People took to the comments to share their thoughts on her hack — many were glad she embraced their trick.
“Lüften will become your new routine, nothing beats fresh air,” said one commenter.
“The trick is, that the vaaaaast majority of heat in your house is “stored” in the walls and things etc.,” explained another.
“Yaaaaay. Well done. Best part of the day,” said a third.
“I do this every morning. it’s so good for the air in the house,” said a fourth.
