If you’ve got an older home in Minneapolis, you may have already done some improvements to update your home and improve its energy efficiency as well as its appearance. One popular project for owners of older houses is window replacement.
Once old windows are replaced with new beautiful fiberglass windows (or a variety of other window choices), condensation might be found on the inside of the glass. The old windows might not have shown any signs of condensation, so seeing it on your new windows can come as a surprise. The good new is that if you find condensation on the inside of the windows, it could very well be a good sign that the windows are working as they should.
There is humidity inside every home. When you take a bath or shower, wash dishes, or launder your clothes, you’re adding more humidity to the inside of your home. Older windows allow this humidity to slip through to the outside, right along with the warm air from inside your home. But with new windows that’s not the case; those windows are not the cause of the humidity, they are actually keeping the humidity trapped inside – along with the warm air.
By using these methods, you’re able to eliminate the extra humidity that may be in the air in your home. With this in mind, always keep the fans on when you take a shower or bath, wash the dishes or put your clothes in the washer and dryer.
