Crank up the Heater

Most people know this trick, and that's because it is a classic and straightforward way to melt away the frost on your windshield. Just direct the heat onto your windshield at the highest temperature possible. 

But if it's icy, the weather in your area is more frigid, and the frost won't seem to budge. No worries, we got more tips coming.

Air Recirculation: OFF

The air recirculation on your car works excellently to ensure that you and your passengers are comfortable. It also works great for keeping your whole body cool during summer, but it works terribly when trying to defrost your car. 

You want the warm air concentrated on your windshield versus everywhere else.

Crack Your Window (if possible)

You may be thinking: "Crack my windows when defrosting my car? That will never work", but trust us, it will. This is because the humid air inside your car is being replaced by the drier air outside, which causes the frost to melt on your vehicle much faster. 

A Good Defrosting Spray

For those who love to work smarter and not harder, investing in a good defrost spray may be ideal for you. It requires minimal effort to use this product, which is why it is a go-to for many.
