corbin0909 asked:
We have a standard black metal frame door with a huge solid glass piece on it. Like you would find at a warehouse. Nothing fancy. It turned cold out in oklahoma today. It is 72 degrees inside and 30 degrees outside. The door is covered in condesation and I can’t even see out the front door. It even has streaks running down it from the water gathering together and running down. Is there any cleaner or other methods that I could use to get rid of this excessive condensation. Would rain-x work or is there a home remedy for this? I know that someone out there has had this problem and fixed it without replacing the door. Its our office door. Replacement isn’t an option.
I am talking about the condensation on the inside side of the door. When I am inside the office I can wipe it off. Not in between panes of glass. Not on the outside side of the door. I think it is a single pane door but I am not sure

Its obvious you’re going to be stubborn about this.
I think you know the problem, but don’t expect miracles. Heat & cold create condensation, theres no getting around it on a metal door much less uninsulated, with a single pane doorglass.
the answer is in your question. 30 v/s 70.
Again if your going to be stubborn about this and want to maintain the integrety of the front of the house…forget the non-conductive fibreglass door I was going to suggest and get a LARSON”S storm door with some charater to it, color etc., and place it in front of the door. the right colors will go good with summer as well as Winter.

The easiest way to eliminate condensation is through air circulation. Try running the bathroom exhaust fan and having a fan blowing somewhere close to the glass door in question, preferably not directly onto it, but at an angle.
