After regular service I checked if the lid to the pollenfilter was mounted correctly. Of some reason this is the only thing my beloved servicing mechanic can't seem to cope 
It wasn't and I noticed a drop hanging from the bottom of the lid. Turned out that the bottom half of the new pollenfilter was nearly soaking wet?
Took the car for half an hours drive with aircon+heat on and filter was almost completely dry when I got back => Aircon must work!
Aircon has just recently been serviced + brand new airconcooler.
I am guessing that this is the main reason I always get extremely foggy windows on the inside of the car after every single wet night. On frosty nights there is a thin layer of ice on the inside. When I remember to check the weather forecast I always use a windshield cover to prevent ice from building up over night - but still the inside can have a thin layer of ice because it's so moist on the window.
Sometimes the winter rubber floor mats can be wet and of course that has to evaporate and ends up on the coldest spot => The windows => I get that.
We have had a very mild winther so far - no frosty temperatures the past month, so it shouldn't be any issue with frost vs. aircon components.
Is there an electric controlled valve that should close shut when I turn the climate control to OFF?
I always turn the climate OFF several seconds before I stop the car. I always wait until I can hear the system stop moving - but maybe it doesn't close completely and havent' for a long time?
I almost always drive with A/C on - especially mornings because I am trying to defog the windows.
Also the air intake spot for the climate (under the hood) is not clutted.
