To fix it, you just need to keep the glass a bit warmer than the air in the room. We use short-wave infrared lamps for this because they&rsquo;re smart—they heat the glass directly instead of just warming up the air around it.</p> <h2 id="getting-the-power-right">Getting the Power Right</h2> <p>Here’s the thing: you can&rsquo;t just grab any heater and hope for the best. If you&rsquo;ve got a small vanity mirror, 50W to 100W is usually plenty. If you go overboard with the power on a small piece of glass, you&rsquo;re asking for trouble. You could actually crack the glass or ruin that silver backing. Not a great look. But for those big walk-in shower mirrors? You&rsquo;ll need more muscle—somewhere between 200W and 500W. The trick is to spread that power across a few different lamps. If you cram all the heat into one spot, you&rsquo;ll get &ldquo;hot spots,&rdquo; and the mirror will look all distorted. Just space them out.</p>
