Signs of Window Problems and Tips on Dealing with Themaa

Your windows will not be able to tell you if they are suffering from different conditions. That is why it is essential for you to be vigilant in identifying signs of window problems. Let Renewal by Andersen® of Long Island discuss signs that your windows have problems.

Signs of Window Problems and Tips on Dealing with Themaa

Condensation Between Glass Panes

If you see condensation between your window’s glass panes then it means that they are no longer airtight. The seals and strips on your windows are likely worn out as well and will need replacement. You can count on us to provide you with quality window replacement in Huntington. We will fill the gaps between your new window and your home’s frame with insulating foam to make them air and weathertight. This will keep drafts from condensing on your windowpanes, keeping them energy-efficient.

Your Double-Hung Windows Are Hard to Operate

If you have a difficult time opening or closing your wood double-hung windows then it may be due to the wood swelling. Wood windows swell when the air around them is damp, which makes them hard to use. You can reduce the swelling on your wood windows by sanding them. We offer Huntington windows that come with quality hardware that makes them easy to use. They also feature a unique frame composite called Fibrex® that does not warp, expand or contract, despite sudden changes in temperature.

Your Casement Windows are Hard to Close and Open

Debris buildup in tracks or any moving parts of your casement window can make them hard to open or close. For them to continue working properly, you need to clean and lubricate their moving parts.

Drafty Windows

Drafts that enter your home can cause discomfort in your home, causing you to overwork your HVAC units and potentially drive up your energy bills. This can be due to worn out weather stripping and seals. This can also be due to poor installation or advanced age (over 20 years). Expect our windows to be airtight whether they are picture, sliding, or specialty windows in Huntington. You can also have the peace of mind knowing that our windows have warranties that will protect you from product defects and faulty installation.
