Double pane glass Ottawa windows insulate and support your home or business much better. However, because they have more panes, they are more challenging to replace or repair than single-pane windows.
When the seals around the edges of double pane windows deteriorate, they can become foggy, cloudy, or distorted. Moisture can seep in between the glass panes, causing damage to the window and its frame.
Even if you don’t think your double-pane windows are severely damaged, you should repair them immediately. A broken double pane window, on the other hand, can be the source of condensation in your home.
Double pane glass Ottawa windows can save your life, but you don’t want a broken one to ruin your home or any other space. When the seals in the glass are broken, the glass ceases to function. Condensation, interior damage, and increased energy costs could all be act as immediate consequences.
Call us right away if you have double pane windows with any of these symptoms! Even cracked or broken double pane windows are more challenging to repair than other types of windows, but with more than 15 years of experience, our Window Medics experts have seen it all. We offer repair, reinstallation, defogging, as well as a replacement for your glass panes.
If your double pane glass Ottawa windows are foggy, you don’t have to rip them out and replace them immediately. Our foggy window repair service can breathe new life into your windows and increase their lifespan by up to twenty years.
Solar pumping is a phenomenon that causes foggy windows. Your windows aren’t entirely hermetically sealed; if they were, they’d burst when the sun heated them!
The space between the twopanes of glass in your window heats up during the day, causing pressure to build up in the void. The semi-permanent seal allows a small amount of air to escape.
The window begins to cool in the evening, causing low pressure, which has the opposite effect. Outside air is drawn back in. This air contains trace amounts of moisture, which the silica desiccant in the window cavity absorbs.
This cycle of solar pumping will eventually result in the silica desiccant absorbing all of the moisture it can because it has become fully saturated over the years.
Because the moisture has nowhere else to go, it condenses on the glass inside the void, causing the foggy effect. Because you don’t want exploding windows, windows are designed to last a certain amount of time. All thermal windows will eventually fail. The time it takes to complete the process is determined by the quality of the silica desiccant used in the spacer bar.
The damage will only get worse if fogging occurs. Moisture builds up over time, reducing the window’s insulating properties and eventually damaging the glass. You will almost always need to replace the glass or the entire window at this point.
If you notice any fogging on your window panes, contact Window Medics right away. A window’s primary functions are to let in natural light and to allow you to see out. So, when a window fogs up, it may not affect the amount of light that comes in, but it significantly reduces your ability to see through it.
When compared to window replacement, Window Medics offers specialized defog services for removing fog from commercial windows, saving you up to 70%. We provide dependable, cost-effective services to restore foggy glass of single, double, and triple-pane windows, utilizing state-of-the-art equipment and extensive experience; however, if the damage is beyond the scope of restoration, we replace the glass.
Fortunately, we have the most up-to-date equipment for dealing with window fogging, and our foggy window repair service can completely restore your window’s thermal efficiency, allowing you to reap the benefits of energy savings once more. You will be able to see outside, and your property will be restored to its former glory.
Insulated Glass Units (IGU) are commercial windows made up of two or more pieces of glass separated by a spacer bar. To prevent moisture vapor transmission, this bar is glued to the glass panes with a special sealant. During the fabrication process, however, some moisture does get into the IGU. The moisture is absorbed to some extent by a desiccant material in the spacer bar. However, this material does not take long to become saturated, resulting in fogging.
We have a team of professionals and qualified technicians who specialize in repairing all types of windows, including failed springs, rollers, and track. We know how to fix minor and major problems that affect the ease of use of windows because dual-pane glass Ottawa windows are popular and many of our regular clients have them. So, you can call us on our toll-free number 613-519-1317 or mail us on ottawa@windowmedics.comfor more details.
