Most Ottawa homeowners have experienced the frustration of foggy window glass at some point. Waking up to find water droplets accumulated between the panes obstructs their view outside. This unsightly problem doesn’t just make your home look uncared for—it’s a sign that your window glass needs professional attention. Don’t worry—Window Medics has the solution!
Window defogging service is one of our specialties. Our technicians use the latest technology to safely remove built-up condensation and moisture, instantly clearing up your window glass. We’ll have your windows looking brand new again in no time.
What Causes Foggy Window Glass?
The main culprit behind foggy or hazy window glass is something called “solar pumping.” As the sun heats up your double glazed or triple pane window glass during the daytime, it causes air and moisture to be pumped out through the seals.
At night, when temperatures drop, the air is drawn back in – but it brings water droplets with it. Over years of this cycle, the moisture eventually overpowers the desiccant lining designed to absorb it. With nowhere else to go, it fogs up between the glass panes.
Solar pumping is actually built into the window glass design to prevent dangerous pressure buildup as temperatures fluctuate. But it creates an average age when defogging becomes necessary—usually 10-15 years with older windows. Left unchecked, this moisture will permanently damage insulation and allow unhealthy mold growth.
Many contractors recommend just replacing the whole window, but Window Medics knows better. Our specialized defogging process can restore energy efficiency for the glass by safely removing all that built-up condensation. It’s like giving old window glass, including 20 more years of functional life!
The Window Medics Defogging Process
Defogging window glass is an intricate process that requires specialized tools and training. First, small entry holes are drilled through the glass paneling. Then, compressed air is used to clear out any loose moisture or debris.
Next, a powerful vacuum pump completely evacuates the remaining air and fog from the area between the panes. This creates a low-pressure vacuum environment to draw out every last bit of moisture.
To finish, the window glass chamber is refilled with fresh air and resealed. A new desiccant lining is also installed to absorb any future moisture that could potentially fog the glass. Just like that, your window is cleared for another couple of decades!

The Benefits of Defogging Window Glass
There are so many advantages to choosing defogging for your foggy window glass over full window replacement. For one, it’s incredibly cost-effective – typically saving homeowners 50-70% compared to replacements!
The defogging process also has a much smaller environmental impact. No energy-intensive manufacturing or landfill waste is required, unlike brand-new window construction.
Let’s not forget the disruption factor too. Window glass defogging can be completed much quicker than a full replacement installation with far less mess or demolition work involved.
Best of all, professional defogging restores your window glass to peak energy efficiency. Once that foggy moisture is removed, you’ll instantly notice less heat transfer and lower utility bills! It’s a pretty sweet deal for a basic repair.
