How to take care of double glazed windows



Double glazed windows warm your home, make it soundproof, and energy efficient. To keep them in good condition for the next few years, they need to be maintained. The following is a step-by-step guide on maintaining your double glazed windows and keeping them in good condition.

Why Double Glazed Windows Require Maintenance

Double glazing windows achieve this through keeping the warmth in your home and keeping it noiseless and warm from outside. Double glazed windows, with time, are susceptible to condensation buildup and seal deterioration. Proper upkeep maintains your windows in their perfect condition and for many years. For professional installation and work, visit WindowsTech.

Top Tips for Maintaining Double Glazed Windows

  • Clean. Clean the glass thoroughly with a mild cleaner and soft cloth. They will be clean and not dirty, scratching the surface.
  • Inspect the rubber seals on your windows and determine if they are worn or cracked. Cracked seals allow air to enter and decrease the efficiency of the window. New seals can be replaced to assist your windows in insulating.
  • Condensation within the panes of the glass indicates that a seal has been broken. Have open windows and ventilate well in your home to avoid condensation, particularly in such regions that have moisture tendencies like the kitchen and bathroom. Employ equal temperatures within your home in order to avoid developing moistures.
  • Clean sills and window frames regularly to avoid accumulating grime and dirt. In thorough cleaning, prepare with a water-detergent solution. Never employ strong chemicals that will damage the frame material.

When to Hire a Professional

  • If you do find water or dampness between the glass, then that indicates that the seal has been compromised and you will need to have the glass unit replaced professionally.
  • If you find your windows not operating as much as you'd prefer, then this would most likely point towards seal defects or even installation defects.
  • Seals or frames can form weakening over time. These can be inspected and restored by a professional with the aim of avoiding further damage.

If you are not certain of the condition of your double glazed windows, have WindowsTech inspect them and advise you.

If you remember these simple maintenance tips, you can make your windows live longer, and they will make you feel warm, energy-saving, and safe for many years to come.
