Replacement Glass Units
Window Doctor Leicester can offer replacement units to customers with misted windows. The most common reason for misted windows is a decomposing seal that allows water vapor to escape from bathrooms and kitchens through the gaps between the panes. It could cause condensation to develop between the two units of glass. If this is not rectified, the thermal properties will be reduced and the heating costs will rise. We can repair a damaged unit or upgrade it to A-rated glass in order to increase energy efficiency. This will prevent heat from escape through the window and door.

Misty Windows
Double-glazed windows are susceptible to degradation with time, regardless of whether they're made of plastic or aluminum frames. The seals can also fail. If this happens, the window glass will mist and you'll see a build-up of water between the panes. This can be fixed however you may need to have the entire window replaced, depending on the severity of the damage. It is recommended to keep your windows clean, and use an extractor in rooms that could become damp, and hire a professional window cleaner.
Misted double glazing is unappealing, but it's not usually a sign of poor maintenance or installation, rather it's a sign that the window has failed in some way. The mist is formed because the unit bar has been broken, which allows moisture and air to get into the space between the two panes of glass. This allows warm air to escape while allowing cold air in and, if left untreated, can affect the energy efficiency of your home. It could also result in higher utility bills as you will be paying to heat a space that is not as well protected as it could be.
If you have misted windows it is essential to get them fixed promptly to prevent the formation of condensation and the degrading of the glass units. Professionals can replace or repair the windows. They must determine the extent of the damage so they can provide the appropriate replacement. This is not a job for DIYers, so you should seek out a professional to do the job safely and effectively.
