Replacement Glass Units

Window Doctor Leicester is able to provide replacement windows to customers who have windows that have been misted. The most frequent problem is caused by a weakening seal allowing water vapor from kitchens and bathrooms to escape into the space between the panes. This can cause condensation between the two glass units, and if left untreated, will diminish the thermal properties of double glazing. This can result in higher heating costs. We can repair a damaged unit or upgrade it to A-rated glass in order to increase energy efficiency. This will stop heat from escaping through the window and door.

Misted Windows

If you have aluminium or plastic frames, double-glazed windows degrade over time, and the seals can fail. If this happens, the window glass will begin to fog and you'll see a build-up of moisture between the panes. This can be repaired, but you may need to have the entire window replaced, depending on the severity of the damage. It is recommended to keep your windows clean, use an extractor in rooms that can become damp, and hire a professional window cleaning service.

Misted double glazing can be unsightly but it isn't usually an indication of poor maintenance or installation, but it's a sign that the window has failed in a way. The mist is caused by an unfinished unit bar which allows air and moisture to pass through the gap between two glass panes. This allows warm air to escape while allowing cold air to enter, and if left can affect the efficiency of your home's energy usage. It could also result in higher energy bills because you'll be paying to heat a room that isn't as insulate as it should be.

It is essential to repair windows that are misting as soon as you can to prevent condensation and degradation of the glass units. A professional can repair or replace the window units, but they'll need to be aware of how severe the damage is so that they can provide the correct replacement. This job isn't suited to DIY and it is crucial to find an expert who can carry out the work safely and effectively.

The cost to replace the double glazing will depend on the type of window frame and its condition, the damage to the window and the size of it. In general, the cost will be higher for larger windows and damaged ones. The exact cost will vary, but it is important to always compare prices before making a final decision.

Double glazing that is misted not only unsightly but it could affect the energy efficiency of your home and result in more expensive heating bills.
