Foggy Windows Affecting Your View on the World?

Monday, January 4th, 2010

With local temperatures taking a dive, many homeowners in the Charlotte area have noticed that some of their windows seem to have developed a permanent fog.  This permanent window fog often happens during the change of seasons, when the conflicting indoor and outdoor temperatures fluctuate and the glass expands and contracts.  The movement of the glass can cause the seal between the two layers of glass to fail, allowing air and moisture inside the window and causing window fog.

Deals Glass Services can now provide residential window repair as well as replacement of just the glass window pane.  Contact us as soon as you notice the ruptured seal and the telltale “perma-fog”, and we can actually remove the air and moisture from between the two glass panels and give you a good as new appearance.   When you repair  or replace the foggy glass rather than replacing the entire window unit, you save yourself time, money and the hassle of having a hole in your home.

Deals has a new commercial explaining the benefits of repairing or replacing just the fogged glass window pane.

You can contact us online or by phone to set up an appointment for Deals to come to your home and clear up your foggy windows.

Repairing Foggy Residential Windows

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009

When a window in your home has a constant foggy appearance it means that the seal has failed.  Once this happens there are three options for the homeowner: replace the entire window unit, replace the glass in the window, or repair the existing window pane.  There are several factors taken into account when deciding which is best for you, and often the first thing to consider is the cost.

Since the foggy window repair process is a fairly new idea, many people facing thermopane seal failure don’t even consider this solution.  At a price of about $90 it is the most cost effective, can be completed in about an hour and since we aren’t disposing of the old glass, it’s also the most environmentally friendly method.   But if you wait too long  after the seal fails, the moisture will permanently stain the inside of the glass giving it an opaque or mottled look – then the foggy appearance cannot be repaired.
