Whichever of the AC/Heat is on, just switch it to the other one. Or turn it off. Or open the windows.

Humid and warm: use heat

Cold and dry: turn on a/c

I think you got the right idea, just backwards..

Assuming your heater, air conditioner, and blower motor all work correctly, you should use your heater defroster in cold weather, and your air conditioner defogger in warm weather.

Note the difference in environmental control terms...

  • DEFROSTER > Used for cold climate, heater, to melt the frost off your windshield.
  • DEFOGGER > Used for warm humid climate, air conditioner, to dehumidify the air.

Failing either heater or air conditioner, welp, just do what we do and roll the windows down.

match the temperature outside.

if it's cold out you need to make it colder inside

if it's hot out you need to make it hotter inside

the condensation is caused by difference in temperature.

yes, it may be inconvenient or uncomfortable

Do they not make cars with Defrost buttons anymore?

If you have a fancy new car without one just yell at your on board AI system until you start crying and then the tears are more blurring than the fog and you just don't care anymore.

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Defrost turns on the AC and blows cold air. That temporarily removes the fog and keeps the cabin cold. The alternative is to use max heat and let the hot air raise the cabin temperature which will help clear the fog.

And it stays gone too. Using cold causes the fogging to return if hot air or the heater is used in the cold car. The defrost button is a myopic solution which ignores user comfort.
