How to Get Rid of Foggy Windows

 

Most home owners deal with the problem of foggy windows from time to time, especially  in the summer season.  Foggy windows are caused due to water that has become trapped between the panes of your window due to some kind of leak or weakness in the window. As the temperature increases this water turns to a vapor.

Foggy windows can drastically change the look and appeal of any room? No one likes the dingy look from foggy windows. It can make the home seem old an worn out but getting rid of the fog on the inside of the window is a challenge. You can scrub and clean all you like with no results. The fact is you are applying all that elbow grease to the exterior of the windows when the problem is in the interior because the fog has formed in between the panes of your multi layered window and it is simply impossible to clean it from the outside.

 

So, how does the fog got inside? The truth is your window is defective. It could be due to age or just poor quality materials or installation. During the winter or even just a little rain, the water gets trapped between the panes of your windows because of a failure in the integrity of the windows seals. That water eventually gets vaporized with the a little increase in heat, leaving you with a foggy window. It doesn’t matter if it is a replacement window or a brand new window, if it is getting for, it’s because of a leak allowing the water vapor to form between the panes and of course, that will blur your view through the window.

 

How repair the foggy window?

We can suggest the following things to repair your foggy windows.

 

Defog your window

Call windows defoggers to drill a small hole in the window. They will fill the cleaning liquid inside the hole and allow it to dry. After drying they install air vents in the window which allows the fog to evaporate when it form again in future.  

 

Window sash replacement

You can replace your old window sash if you have a removable one. Retaining the framework, you can replace the sash eliminating any weakness or leak. Before taking this route, make sure your window frames are in good working condition.

 

Replacement window

The ultimate solution and the only real fix, is a replacement window.  With professional installation, you will have a brand new window.

When Is A Perfect Time To Replace Windows

 

The answer is – whenever you feel your windows are too old or worn out to do the job. There is not really a “perfect” time to replace any window because, different types of windows have different durability periods according to the way they were manufactured. The quality of raw materials used also determines durability.

Though it can be tricky figuring out when to replace your windows, there are few things to look for that can be a good indication when it’s the right time.

1.     Windows are getting condensation

This means, your window has lost its capacity to vent out the water vapor that gets trapped between the panes. When it is trapped, it blocks your vision from inside or outside your house.

 

2.     The glass is broken

This is an obvious situation that tells you loud and clear to replace the window as soon as possible.

 

3.     Windows do not stay open

This is a problem with the sash installed in your window. When the sash start malfunctioning, it cannot properly hold the window open.

 

4.     Unhappy with existing design and shape

If you are bored with the old design and color of your window, you can get custom designed windows from Thermal Windows – J & M Glass Company.  J&M can get you windows with the design and color of your choice, because almost every shape and color is possible. J&M has it’s own local manufacturing plant making the entire process faster and less expensive, saving you time and money.
