Have you started noticing a foggy or cloudy look inside your windows that just won’t wipe away? If so, you’re not alone — and you might be dealing with a common issue called failed window seals.
At All American Glass and Screen Company, we specialize in diagnosing and repairing problems like this. Let’s walk you through why window seal failure happens — and most importantly, what you can do about it.
Why Do Double-Pane Window Seals Fail?
Modern windows are often built with two panes of glass separated by an insulating layer of air or inert gas (like argon). This design dramatically improves energy efficiency, keeping your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.
But over time, the seals that keep the panes airtight can break down. Some common reasons include:
Age: Window seals naturally wear out after years of exposure to the elements.
Temperature Changes: Hot summers and freezing winters cause the glass and frames to expand and contract, putting stress on the seals.
Poor Installation: If the windows weren’t installed properly, the seals might not have been as tight as they should have been from the start.
Moisture and Humidity: In high-humidity environments, the moisture can speed up the breakdown of window seals.
When a seal fails, outside air — and more importantly, moisture — gets between the panes. That's when you start to see the telltale fog, haze, or even visible water droplets between the glass layers.
What’s the Solution for Foggy Windows?
Many homeowners think the only fix is to replace the entire window — but that’s not necessarily true.
In most cases, you don’t have to replace the whole window frame or sash. You can simply replace the insulated glass unit (IGU) itself.
At All American Glass and Screen Company, we specialize in double-pane glass replacement. Here’s how it works:
We measure your existing window to custom-fit the new insulated glass.
We order the replacement glass from our supplier which can take 2-3 weeks to arrive.
We then schedule to remove the foggy, failed glass while preserving your window frame.
We install brand-new, energy-efficient double-pane glass — making your window look and perform like new again.
The result? Clear views, restored energy efficiency, and a lower cost than full window replacement!
Don't Ignore Foggy Windows
Besides being an eyesore, foggy windows can signal a loss of insulation. That means higher energy bills, less comfort, and even potential long-term damage from moisture buildup.
The good news is: you have options — and you don't have to replace the whole window.
If you’re seeing fog, haze, or moisture inside your double-pane windows, reach out to All American Glass and Screen Company today. We offer honest advice, professional service, and affordable solutions to get your windows (and your home) looking their best again.
