Window Insulation

Hi
I have just got some of the window film insulatation, that you stick around the window frames and shrink with a hairdryer.
I used this on my living room and kitchen windows yesterday and it seems to be working very well keeping out the cold compared to the bedroom windows, which I have yet to do.
Has anyone used this in the past in their bathroom? I wondering if it would be worth trying or not as this has a lot of condensation?
I would have loved to door this on our glazed front door, but I think the kiddies would be poking holes in it!
Thanks

Hi
I used it on my bathroom window for years and it was fine- I have more of a prob with condensation now that I've taken it off to paint window frame and haven't replaced yet.

Hi cb101
Thanks I think it will be worth a try, thankfully not as big a window as my kitchen

I saw a tip to put those silica sashets inside each section covered to help a bit with condensation, going to get some window film myself next week, as rented place we are in is single glazed (oh and heating packed up last night, still waiting on specialist hot air heating people to come look at it, so using electric heaters, which won't be cheap).0
