Ok guys I know there has got to be a solution to fogged up windows. How do you keep your windows in your shacks fog free. In my portable the moister turns to ice and I can't see out at all. In my wheel house the moisture collects on the windows and again I can't see my tip ups. Yeah I can wipe it off but it just keeps coming back. Does anybody have any solutions to this? Has anyone ever tried Rain-X Fog?

Burning propane generates moisture. The vent free styles will always generate moisture inside the house. There are a couple things you can do to help, tho.

Crack a window and let some fresh air in from time to time, and keep a vent in your porty open will help.

For your porty, if you can.....every now and then bring it inside a shop or warm garage. Set it up and let it dry out. This is something I try to do often and the results are better than you'd think.

Isn't there some spray for eyeglasses to keep them from fogging up? I used to have a paste years ago I used on my glasses and it worked pretty good but I have not seen it around for years.I just ran a quick google on anti fog and some products came up,maybe check them out.I would have posted a couplelinks but not sure if that would be legal here.Check with MC or snowmobile dealers they may have some info also.

Now I don't want anybody laughing at me BUT

in the wheel house try putting shaving cream on the windows and

then wiping it all off. This will keep the fogging to a minium

and if you don't believe me do it on your bathroom mirror

before taking a shower and see the result!!

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
