Abstract
The problem of fogged mirrors and wet human body parts in a bathroom after bathing is solved by a device that both selectively defogs the mirror and dries human body parts including the hair. One form of device includes a frame portion that supports the mirror while another form attaches to the mirror. Each form has a housing portion defining a pair of defogging passages and a drying passage in flow receiving relation to the defogging passages with the passages being supplied heated air from a common source. Manually operated valves control the flow through defogging manifolds and between the defogging passages and the drying passage through a drying opening. Controls are also provided to regulate the amount of heat, airflow and time of operation.
