You probably have condensation building on the windows because your humitity in your home is still high from the summer months. as we move into winter the relative humidity will fall to as low as 5%. Before spending money on a dehumidifier you can try the following to lower your humidity in your house;

1. If you dont have one, purchase a hygrometer (used to measure relative humidity) Home depot should have them.

2. Turn on any exhaust fans you have such as bathroom range hood.

3. Run your furnace fan all the time to bring in dryer air from outside - also when running your exhaust fans you need to makeup the humid air your exhausting.
