Defogging: a solution in decline in favor of sustainable alternatives

Historically, defogging was a popular method to restore clarity to foggy windows. The technique involved drilling small holes in the glazing to remove moisture from between the panes. Although defogging was popular in the 2000s for its short-term affordability, several important limitations are now recognized: 

• Partial aesthetic results: if the fog disappears on the surface, permanent marks or rings may remain on the inside of the glazing.
• Loss of energy efficiency: as the original insulating gas (argon or krypton) leaks out, the glazing loses some of its insulating power, increasing heat loss.
• Reduced durability: Moisture may return after a few months or years, as the fundamental problem – seal failure – is not corrected.
• Incompatibility with modern glazing: Many recent low-emissivity or triple-glazed models are not compatible with the drilling required for demisting.
