"How to Identify Misting in Your Double Glazed Windows
Misting between panes is a common issue that reduces visibility and insulation, but spotting it early helps you plan repairs effectively without any guesswork.
STEPS:
1. Stand 1-2 feet from the window during daylight and look for a hazy or foggy layer between the two glass panes, not on the surface
2. Wipe the inner and outer glass surfaces with a dry cloth to confirm moisture is trapped inside the sealed unit
3. Check multiple windows around your home, noting which ones show persistent cloudiness that doesn't clear with surface cleaning
4. Observe if misting worsens in humid conditions or temperature changes, indicating seal failure
5. Document the affected windows with photos from both inside and outside for accurate quotes
6. Note the window style, size, and any patterns to match replacement units precisely
WARNING: Surface condensation is normal; only internal misting between panes needs attention
