Insulated double-pane windows frequently fog up. What are the reasons? Very simple. Gas-filled window units (IGUs) comprise two glass panes is a single factory-sealed unit with excellent insulation properties. There is either air or argon / krypton gases inside the unit, with the latter being superior in technical characteristics due to the higher density of the gases when compared to air. When the seal that keeps the gases inside the unit becomes less airtight, the gases escape – at different rates depending on the degree of seal degradation. There’s a number of factors that affect the operation of an IGU, including fluctuations in temperature and air pressure, working load, wind, sunlight and humidity. In other words, these factors affect the life expectancy of window seals, but eventually all of them fail and will require your attention.
Defogging is an eco-friendly, efficient and long-lasting solution to the annoying fog between you and the beautiful view of the world through your windows.
Defogging process
There’s an algorithm to foggy window repair and it’s rather straightforward.
- A tiny hole is drilled in the glass
- A special solution is infused inside the IGU
- Fog dries up
- A small window vent is installed, enabling the window to expel moisture on its own
When all else fails, the IGU glass unit may be replaced, which is also a less expensive and far less messy option than full window replacement.
