If you have a problem with your windows it is likely that you simply require some maintenance as opposed to having the unit replaced. PVCu windows are not maintenance free; however, they can be low maintenance. Moreover, repairs need not be expensive: handles and hinges break, locks seize and rubbers shrink, all of which can be replaced.Is your double glazing misting up?
Double glazing is formed from two panes of glass sealed together, with a gap left between them, to form a double glazed unit. The air (or gas depending on the double glazing rating) trapped inside the window creates an insulating barrier that keeps heat in. If your seal breaks, or the silicone gel crystals have absorbed too much moisture, this can result in misted or foggy windows.
When your double glazing mists up, you are loosing the insulation that the window originally provided and the more heat will escape, resulting in a higher heating bill. DK Locksmiths are experts at removing condensation from uPVC double glazing.
