    • 1). Cover pots when boiling water. This will lower water vapor in your home.

    • 2). Turn on the ventilation far and shut the bathroom door after a bath or shower. Leave the door shut until the water vapor and steam dissipates. This should take about 20 minutes.

    • 3). Avoid hanging wet clothes to dry inside your home. This will reduce the water vapor in your home.

    • 4). Vent your dryer outside.

    • 5). Fix your home's ventilation system or install ceiling fans throughout the home and exhaust fans in the bathroom.

    • 6). Heat your home above 63 degrees Fahrenheit. If the temperature is lower than that, it will turn the water vapor to condensation when it hits a cold wall.

    • 7). Install a dehumidifier in your home if the water vapor and damp walls are still present.

    • 8). Install double- or triple-paned windows in your home to keep the home warmer.
