Foggy, Drafty or Damaged Windows? Get Your Home’s Glass Ready Before Winter

 In Residential glass

As temperatures start to drop in Minnesota, problems with your home’s windows and doors can become much more noticeable. Foggy glass, chilly drafts, cracked panes, and damaged storm doors may be easy to ignore during summer, but they can become bigger headaches once winter arrives. Fall is a great time to take a closer look at your windows and doors and take care of necessary residential glass repairs before cold weather sets in. At Apollo Glass in Buffalo, MN, we provide residential glass repair and replacement throughout the western Twin Cities metro.

What Causes Foggy Windows?

If you notice condensation or a cloudy appearance between the panes of a double- or triple-pane window, the insulated glass seal may have failed. Once that seal is compromised, moisture can enter the space between the panes, creating the foggy appearance you see.

The good news? A foggy window doesn’t always mean you need an entirely new window. In many cases, Apollo Glass can replace the insulated glass unit while keeping the existing window frame, making it a practical way to restore clear views and improve the performance of your windows.

Feeling a Draft Around Your Windows?

Drafts become especially noticeable when Minnesota temperatures start dropping. Perhaps you’ve noticed a crack in the window, or maybe loose glass when you open or close it. While not every draft is caused by the glass itself, damaged or poorly performing glass can contribute to comfort and efficiency problems.

Apollo Glass can inspect the glass and help determine whether replacement glass, including energy-efficient low-E glass, is an appropriate solution. Taking care of the problem before winter can help make your home more comfortable when temperatures really drop.

Don’t Forget Your Patio Doors, Storm Doors, and Storm Windows!

Fall is also the perfect time to inspect patio doors, storm doors, and storm windows. Cracked or broken glass, damaged screens and other issues can leave your home less protected from winter weather. Get those lingering problems taken care of before snow, ice and freezing temperatures arrive.
