When discussing building energy efficiency and indoor comfort, window and door condensation is often a key topic, especially as the weather turns colder. What causes this condensation? Does it differ based on location on windows and doors? How can we solve it? Let's find out.
Window and door condensation refers to dew or water mist forming on their indoor surfaces. It occurs when the surface temperature of solids (like glass, window sashes, and frames) is lower than the dew point of the surrounding moist air, causing water vapor to condense into liquid on the cold surfaces.
Severe or persistent condensation can lead to water droplets flowing down glass edges. Over time, this may cause wall peeling, wallpaper deformation, mold, and bacteria, harming health and weakening door/window frames, affecting their seal and stability.
The key to preventing window and door condensation and ensuring a comfortable home life is to choose windows and doors with better thermal insulation.
With rigorous structural designs, optimized profiles, and PA66 thermal breaks, Imagery Windows & Doors ensure stable wind pressure resistance and similar surface and indoor temperatures, preventing condensation.
Using EPDM sealing strips ensures effective sealing due to their good abrasion resistance and elasticity. Closing the windows and doors achieves excellent airtightness, preventing air leaks, significantly enhancing insulation, sealing, and soundproofing, and greatly reducing the likelihood of condensation formation.
Imagery Windows & Doors uses TPS/4SG, LOW-E, triple-glazed, or ultra-quiet quad-glazed glass to reduce heat loss, raise glass surface temperature, and minimize failure due to the "pumping effect" with integral spacer bending.
Imagery team offers customized windows and doors based on home style, regional climate, building and energy features, indoor environment needs, and usage habits, ensuring a safe and comfortable living space tailored to local conditions.
