Does mold grow on bathroom walls if window remains open during winter?

Mold and mildew are much less likely to form if the bathroom is properly ventilated. Closing the room in winter months, when the temperature indoors is likely to be higher than in the warmer months, will most likely cause more mold and mildew to form.

Why does fog form on a car window during the winter?
some form of bonds formed in the air.
Is the moon closer during the winter?
No, the orbit of the moon remains the same all year. It does not vary by season.
Why does condensation occur on the window of a bathroom only during winters?
this happens because during winter the air gets cool and the humidity in the air (amount of water vapor in the air)condenses (water vapor turns back to water) as we know that the process of condensation happens when the temperature is cool,and the temperature is warm then evaporation happens.

WIndow shades are very useful at keeping your home cooler during the sumemr months and warmer in the winter.

Why is air in a double pane window?
The air in a double pane window is actually more likely an inert gas such as carbon dioxide, argon or krypton. This gas is important because it conducts heat less than glass which makes the window a better insulator. This keeps the heat in during the winter and the cold air in during the summer.
Window Glass Repairs Save Money?
Window glass repairs costs less than a total window replacement. The technician will measure the damaged or foggy window. You can replace it with the same glass or upgrade to an energy efficient product. New window glass products can save homeowners money. It significantly reduces the summer heat entering your home and reduces heat loss that occurs during the winter. You can also select glass with tinting, decorative touches or privacy features. The window glass unit remains intact as the technician removes the old glass. They will install the new glass unit and caulk it to provide a moisture barrier.

What type of window treatments are the best for energy efficiency?
The U.S. Department of Energy has several suggestions of energy-efficient window treatments. Awnings on south- and west-facing windows help prevent heat gain during the summer. Window blinds can prevent heat gain in summer, but are less effective at preventing winter heat loss. Draperies can prevent heat gain in summer and heat loss in winter, but their effectiveness depends on a variety of factors, including size (extending high above the window and onto the floor is best) and whether they are sealed at the edges. High-reflectivity films block heat gain, which is good in summer, but can be energy inefficient in winter. Storm panels can be added onto windows during the winter to prevent heat loss and then removed during the summer.
