What causes condensation & what are your options to eliminate the condensation?

When your window becomes foggy, it may be trying to tell you a few things. One of these is that your house may not be properly ventilated or you have a higher than normal moisture level in the house. This is more of a moisture issue than a window issue, but all the subtle signs can be seen on the window. It is important first to understand where the condensation is occurring before identifying its cause – whether it’s on the exterior, the interior, or in between the panes of glass. We take care of all types of residential glass repairs and installations so you don’t have to worry about drafts, rot, mould, or higher energy bills!

It condenses on the outside when the temperature inside the house falls below the temperature outside – for example, on a hot, humid day. Moisture condensation occurs on the coldest surface on the glass, outside or inside. When the tables turn, and it is colder outside, you will see moisture condensing on the inside of the glass surface.
