Now that the temperature outside has dropped, the windows start to accumulate water vapor. I am assuming that it might also lead to that black stuff forming. Is there a more efficient way of dealing with the condensate than wiping it dry every day?

Hi there, I also had this issue and asked an HVAC technician about it when he was here last. I understand in Europe forced air heating isn’t very common, so this might not work for you (I’m in Pennsylvania). My issue was that the humidifier on my furnace was turned up too high, simple fix, I just couldn’t find the adjustment knob as it was mounted really high in the ceiling.

Yeah, heating is mostly done through the radiator heaters or heated floors around here.
